The
ROMANS ROAD is a pathway you can walk.
It is a
group of bible verses from the book of Romans in the New Testament.
If you
walk down this road you will end up understanding how to be saved.
Romans
3:23
"For
all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God."
We all
have sin in our hearts. We all were born with sin.
We were born under the power of sin's control.
Admit
that you are a sinner.
Romans
6:23a
"...The
wages of sin is death..."
Sin has an
ending. It results in death. We all face physical death, which is a result
of sin.
But a
worse death is spiritual death that alienates us from God, and will last
for all eternity.
The Bible
does plainly teach that there is a place called the Lake of Fire where lost
people will be in torment forever.
It is the
place where people end up that remain spiritually dead.
Understand
that you deserve death for your sin.
Romans
6:23b
"...But
the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."
Salvation
is a free gift from God to you!
We can't earn this gift, but we must reach out and receive it.
Ask God
to forgive you and save you.
Romans
5:8
"God
demonstrates His own love for us, in that while we were yet sinners
Christ died for us!"
When Jesus
died on the cross He paid sin's penalty. He paid the cosmic price for
all sin, and when He took all the sins of the world on Himself on the
cross, He bought us out of slavery to sin and death! The only
condition is that we believe in Him and what He has done for us,
understanding that we are now joined with Him, and that He is our life.
Because He
loved us and gave Himself for us!
Give
your life to God... His love poured out in Jesus on the cross is your only
hope to have forgiveness and change. His love bought you out of
being a slave to sin. His love is what saves you. Not religion, or
church membership.
God
loves you! And reaches you right where you are.
Romans
10:13
"Whoever
will call on the name of the Lord will be saved!"
Call
out to God in the name of Jesus!
Romans
10:9,10
"...If
you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that
God raised Jesus from the dead, you shall be saved; for with the heart man
believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses,
resulting in salvation."
If you
know that God is knocking on your heart door,
ask Him
to come into your heart.
Jesus
said,
Revelation
3:20a
"Behold
I stand at the door and knock, if anyone hears My voice and opens the door,
I will come in to him..."
Is
Jesus knocking on your heart's door?
Believe in
Him. Ask Him to come in to your heart by faith, and ask Him to reveal
Himself to you. Open the bible to the gospel of John and read what God says
about Jesus, about you, and about being born again.
God will help you.
Just talk to Him. He loves you.
You need
to look for a local church where God's word is preached. The bible says
that we are to desire God's word like a newborn baby desires mother's milk.
Aren't
you hungry to know the truth?
Water
baptism is one of the ways you first show that you have been joined to
Jesus. The symbolism is this: When you go down in the water you show that
you have been crucified and buried with Him, And when you come up out of
the water you show that you have been raised to walk with Him in newness of
life. (See Romans chapter 6)
You have
been born again. (See John chapter 3) Your body
has become God's temple. Your heart is where He lives.
Forgiveness is yours in Jesus. And you belong to Him. You
were sin's slave. But now...You are a child of GOD!
John
1:12
"As
many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God,
even to
those who believe in His name!"
