You can KNOW you are saved!

Salvation is FREE!

A simple and memorable way to know you are saved, is to understand and believe in this one conclusive statement: Salvation is by Grace ALONE, through Faith ALONE, in Jesus Christ ALONE!

Understand and believe that biblical viewpoint, and you will KNOW you are saved, forgiven, and fully accepted by a Holy and just God as His blameless child.

First, you must realize that salvation is a free gift of God. It is written: "by Grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not as a result of works, that no one should boast". (Ephesians 2:6-9)
Simply put, salvation can NEVER be earned! God's standard is perfection. NOT one of us is perfect, nor ever will be. We must accept that we can never reach or climb up to God. He made the provision and provided the perfect sacrifice by reaching down to us, and walking among us. It is written: "In the beginning was the Word, The Word was with God and The Word was God" (John 1:1) "And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth". (John 1:14)
To enter into God's kingdom, you must be blameless and without sin. This poses quite a problem since there is not one who has not sinned. It is written: "all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God" (Romans 3:23) "there is none righteous, not even one; there is none who understands, there is none who seeks for God; All have turned aside, together they have become useless; there is none who does good, there is not even one" (Romans 3:10). We were created to have fellowship with our creator, and yet sin cannot enter His presence. In order to redeem us and remove sin from us, God's holiness and sovereign justice requires a sacrifice or penalty for sin. No effort on our part could ever meet the standard of perfection. To understand that a loving creator took such amazing steps to regain fellowship with us, is to discover the power of true love. Grace means "undeserving favor". We, who have sinned against God and others and ourselves, have done nothing nor ever could do anything to please God. Despite ourselves, God desires our fellowship and love. His love towards us is so great that He Himself bore the punishment that sin demands.It is written: "God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath of God through Him". (Romans 5:8-9) God; giving of himself in His only begotten Son, walked among us with one purpose in heart and mind...to pay the penalty in FULL! To pay the ultimate price for sin...death! It is written: "the wages (penalty) of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord". (Romans 6:23)

Secondly, if you sense the drawing of God upon your heart, follow.. have faith in what He did and believe it in your heart. It is written: "without faith, it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him". (Hebrews 11:6-7) Belief in the truth will set you free. Faith is the key to peace. It is written: "having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom also we have obtained our introduction by faith into this grace in which we stand" (Romans 5:1-2).

Thirdly, believe that Jesus Christ is the ONLY way to God the Father. It is written: Jesus said, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, except through me". (John 14:6) Also it is written: "that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazarene, whom was crucified, whom God raised from the dead, by this name...and there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved" (Acts 4:10-12).

Summing it up, it is written: "it is appointed for men to die ONCE and after this comes judgment" (Hebrews 9:27). Therefore, you can obtain Grace and escape the wrath of God's emminate judgment, or you can continue in unbelief and pride and never know the joy and peace of reconciliation with God our creator through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ and the shedding of His blood in your place.

If you are not saved, or are not sure about your salvation; you can be sure right now!

You can pray to God right where you are, in whatever condition of sin you may be in. You may think that God doesn't love you or want you. You are so very wrong. You matter so much to Him! He wants you to know Him and He wants to show you His love for you. You don't have to worry about being perfect or even good. No one is really good to God. Only Jesus is good and perfect. Jesus wants to show you the love of God personally. Do you feel God tugging on your heart? He could be calling you right now! Jesus will accept you NO MATTER WHAT! NO matter what you have done! If you want to know God, and you believe in your heart that Jesus is the way to Him; please consider this prayer of faith or one like it to Him right now. Your eternal destiny will be forever changed! You will have a peace that is not from this world. Jesus said "Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives" (John 14:27). To accept God's plan for salvation is to be "born again". It is written: Jesus said "Truly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God...unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not marvel that I said to you, you must be born again". (John 3:3-7)

To be born again you need only to submit to the drawing of God upon your heart! He will take it from there, making you alive in your spirit. Having been dead in your sins, you will now be made alive!

Here is a prayer that you can pray right now to be born again and know that you are saved:
