About Jesus — and how you can be saved

We believe the Bible teaches that salvation is by grace through faith in Jesus Christ. This page explains who Jesus is, why we need salvation, and how you can receive Him today.

Who is Jesus?

Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God—fully God and fully man—who came to earth, lived a sinless life, died on the cross for our sins, and rose again the third day. He is the only way to the Father.

“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” — John 14:6 (KJV)

(You can replace the image with a photograph of your church, a cross, baptism, or a simple abstract.)

Why do we need salvation?

1 • God's Love

God created you and loves you

God desires a relationship with you. He created you on purpose and for a purpose.

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” — John 3:16 (KJV)
2 • Our Problem

All have sinned

Sin separates us from a holy God. We cannot save ourselves by good works.

“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.” — Romans 3:23 (KJV)
3 • God's Remedy

Jesus paid it all

Jesus died in our place and rose again, offering forgiveness and new life.

“But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” — Romans 5:8 (KJV)
4 • Your Response

Turn and trust Christ

Salvation is a gift received by repentance and faith—not by works, religion, or ritual.

“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast.” — Ephesians 2:8–9 (KJV)

How to be saved

God invites you to respond to the gospel. Here is what the Bible says:

1

Admit your need

Recognize that you are a sinner who needs a Savior.

“There is none righteous, no, not one.” — Romans 3:10 (KJV)
2

Believe on Jesus

Trust that Jesus died and rose again for you.

“Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved.” — Acts 16:31 (KJV)
3

Call upon Him

Confess with your mouth and receive Him by faith.

“For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” — Romans 10:13 (KJV)

A sample prayer

A prayer does not save by itself—Jesus saves. But you can express your faith in Him with words like these:

“Lord, I know I am a sinner. I believe Jesus died for my sins and rose again. I turn from my sin and receive Jesus as my Lord and Savior. Please forgive me and give me eternal life. In Jesus’ name, amen.”

If you have questions, we would love to talk with you.

Assurance from Scripture

“He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.” — 1 John 5:12 (KJV)
“Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.” — John 6:47 (KJV)

After salvation: next steps

Following Jesus is a lifelong journey. We’d be honored to help you grow.

  • Baptism — publicly identify with Christ and His church. (Acts 2:41)
  • Bible — read and obey God’s Word. (1 Peter 2:2)
  • Belong — connect to a Bible-believing church family. (Hebrews 10:25)
  • Begin serving — grow by using your gifts. (Ephesians 4:12)

Questions people ask

Isn’t being a good person enough?

No one can reach God’s standard by good works. Salvation is by grace through faith in Christ alone. (Ephesians 2:8–9)

Can I know for sure I’m saved?

Yes. God’s promise is clear: those who believe in the Son have everlasting life. (John 6:47; 1 John 5:12–13)
