Psalm 95:7-8
"For He is our God; and we are
the people of His pasture, and the sheep of His hand. To day if ye will hear
His voice, Harden not your heart, as in the provocation, and as in the day of
temptation in the wilderness."
God's Plan of Salvation for the sinner is expressed in the Scriptures below.
John 3:16
"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."
Romans 5:8
But God commendeth His love toward us, in that, while
we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
Romans 10:9-10
9 That if
thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine
heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
10 For with
the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is
made unto salvation.
John 6:37
All that the Father giveth me shall come to Me; and
him that cometh to Me I will in no wise cast out.
2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some
men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any
should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
2 Corinthians 5:21
For He hath made Him to be sin for us, who knew no
sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him.
Ephesians 2:8
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not
of yourselves: it is the gift of God.
The
Invitation: Isaiah 55:1-3
1 Ho,
every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money;
come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without
price.
2 Wherefore do ye spend money for that
which is not bread? and your labour for that which satisfieth not? hearken diligently
unto Me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in
fatness.
3 Incline your ear, and come unto Me:
hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with
you, even the sure mercies of David.
Lord Jesus, I confess that I am a sinner. I believe
You died for my sins! I believe that You were resurrected, defeating death for
me so that I could have eternal life. I pray that You will forgive me of my
sins and come into my heart. It is my desire to be a member of Your Family. I
thank You, Lord Jesus, for Your promise for those who come to You, You will
"in no wise cast them out." Thank You, for accepting me into Your
Family. I pray that from this day forward, I will seek to glorify You and to do
Your will. Amen.
The Next Step
The next step is for the believer to become
affiliated with a local church. Here the believer can become involved in Formal
Bible Study and "grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and
Saviour, Jesus Christ" (2 Peter 3:18). This is a place where the believer
can worship, study, fellowship and in
general, be encouraged while also encouraging other believers, as commanded in
the following Scriptures.
† † †
Hebrews 10:24-25
24
And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:
25
Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of
some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day
approaching.
Hebrews 3:13
But exhort one another daily, while it is called Today; lest
any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
2 Timothy 2:15
Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that
needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the Word of Truth.
