An Invitation - Paul4Jesus Ministry

The invitation to accept Jesus' offer of forgiveness is the most important consideration you will ever make.

Your eternal destiny hangs on that choice!

Jesus' death on the cross, His burial, and resurrection is our guarantee of complete forgiveness if we will turn to Him and accept His gracious offer.

How does a person accept the Lord's invitation?

Believe that what Jesus said about you is true: "All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." Confess your sins to God and agree with Him about your need for forgiveness.

Receive Jesus into your life by telling Him that you believe that He is your Savior and Lord. Confess to Him your faith in His death on the cross for your sins, that He was buried, and on the third day He rose again. Tell Him you believe He is alive today and you want Him to live in you.

Commit yourself to follow Him as Lord. Ask Him to teach you His Word and pledge to follow Him wherever He leads. Thank Him for the gift of eternal life that He paid for with His own blood.

Tell others what God has done for you and learn more about following Jesus Christ as His disciple through baptism, reading the Bible, and getting involved in a good Bible-teaching church.

Pray something like this, from your heart.

Dear Lord Jesus, I know I am a sinner. I believe you died on the cross for my sins, was buried, and rose from the grave. I believe you are alive today, and invite you to live in me. Right now, I turn from my sins and open the door of my heart and life to you. I pledge to follow you wherever you lead. I receive you as my personal Lord and Savior. Thank you for the gift of eternal life through your blood on the cross. Thank you Lord Jesus for saving me. Amen!

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

If you have done these things and prayed this prayer or something similar from your heart, you are now Born Again. Praise God! Now, it is very important that you share your commitment with fellow Christians. Talk with a pastor and discuss how you can grow in your new spiritual life. The best advice I can give you right now is to read the Bible daily, pray often and seek Christian fellowship. In humble and brotherly love, I invite you to contact me anytime. May God Bless you always.

Your Brother in Christ,
Paul aka Paul4Jesus
