Finding Peace with God

You can experience peace with God when you:

Understand that God loves you and seeks to have a personal relationship with you.

“For God so loved the world he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” John 3:16

“I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” John 10:10b

Admit that you are a sinner and separated from God.

“…for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” Romans 3:23

“For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 6:23

Acknowledge that Jesus Christ is God’s only provision for your sin.

“But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:8

“Jesus answered, ‘I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.’” John 14:6

Accept Jesus Christ as payment for your sin and receive Him as your personal Lord and Savior.

“Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God…” John 1:12

“And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession—to the praise of his glory.” Ephesians 1:13,14

It is not enough to just know about Jesus Christ and His death on the cross for you.

You must choose to put your trust in Christ and receive the free gift of salvation God offers. You accept Jesus by prayer, which is simply talking to God.

“Lord Jesus I need You. I acknowledge I am a sinner and separated from You. Thank You for dying on the cross for me. I ask You to come into my life and make me the kind of person You want me to be.”
