The Bible teaches that all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God and the wages of sin is death. (Romans 3:23; 6:23) God has given us the gift of eternal life in Jesus Christ and therefore granted us salvation. (Romans 6:23). This gift of Salvation comes by grace through faith. (Ephesians 2:8) There is nothing we can do to earn Salvation we can only accept his mercy and be born again and renewed by the Holy Spirit. (Titus 3:3-6; John 3:5)
How does a person accept God's Gift?
Believe- You believe in your heart that Jesus is the Son of God and he was raised from the dead (John 3:16; Romans 10:9)
Repent- You seek forgiveness and turn away from sin. (Acts 2:38, 3:19)
Confess- You confess Jesus Christ as Lord. (Romans 10:9-13; Matthew 10:32)
Baptism- You get baptized ("immersed") into Christ for the forgiveness of sins and the receiving of the Holy Spirit. (Mark 16:16; John 3:5; Acts 2:38, 22:16; Galatians 3:26-29; 1 Peter 3:21)

Romans 10:9 and "Mean It" (no fooling around).
This is Part 1. of Salvation provided by Jesus.
This Recreates your Spirit and makes you a Child of GOD (All are Welcome too!---no matter what sins your committing or who you are or What Ever!)
ALL can get Saved.
Part 2. of Salvation is "Working it Out"---comning out of Sins, getting Healed, saved from Accidents, Poverty so on---AND YOU have a Part in Working Out your Own Salvation (Part 2.).

Believe in God and that He sent His Son Jesus(Emmanuel-God be with us), to die for our sins.(Jesus died so the Holy Spirit can be with us. THe Holy Spirit is the conscience of our minds and heart. It convicts us of our sins.) God is the Holy Spirit.
Be Baptized in the Father Son and Holy Spirit
Repent of your sins and Follow God's Commandments that is the greatest thing anyone can do to be saved.

Simply believe that Jesus, who is God, died for your sins on the cross and rose again (1 Corinthians 15:1-4)

Joh 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. (Born-again means to have our spirit reborn because it dead to God because of sin)

"Believe in the LORD Jesus Christ and you shall be saved..."
Believe what? Accept his bodily sacrifice for your sins. Jesus died for the sins of the world.
