How do I accept Jesus as my Lord and Savior?
Trust Jesus Now. Admit that your are a sinner and that you need God. Be willing to change your life and reject sin. Believe that Jesus Christ died for you, was buried and rose from the dead to save you and the world.
Through prayer, invite Jesus into your heart and life to become your personal Lord and Savior.
2 sample prayers are below:
+Dear Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner, and I ask for your forgiveness. I believe You died for my sins and rose from the dead. I turn from my sins and invite You to come into my heart and life. I want to trust You as my Lord and Savior.
+Dear God, I know I am a sinner and I ask for your forgiveness. I believe Jesus Christ is Your Son. I believe that He died for my sin and that You raised Him to life. I want to trust Him as my Savior and follow Him as Lord, from this day forward. Guide my life and help me to do Your will. I pray this in the name of Jesus. Amen.
We are saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ; His death, burial and resurrection. Salvation is a gift from God, not a result of our good works or of any human efforts. (Ephesians 2:8-9)
Repentance is the commitment to turn away from sin in every area of our lives and follow Christ, which allows us to receive His redemption and to be regenerated by the Holy Spirit thus, through repentance we receive forgiveness of sins and appropriate salvation. (Acts 2:21, l John 1:9)
Baptism: Following faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, you are commanded by the Word of God to be baptized in water in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. (Matthew 28:19, Acts 2:38)
