                                                         PATHWAY TO SALVATION   

Salvation is for all men and women that are born with a sinful nature.  The work that Jesus did for each of us on  the Cross
was to redeem man and woman from the power of sin.  I believe that this salvation is available to all who will receive it.  The
Path to Salvation is free to all, but all who accept need to realize Salvation does not come without a price.  The price was paid
for by Jesus Christ.  Therefore, when we accept the grace God gives us, we are then forever His, and true obedience to Him is
our way of repaying Him.  So, to each that have accepted and will accept Jesus Christ as their true and only Savior, let us
agree to be obedient to God, do the things He wants of us, and live the life He has planned for us.  Admit your sin, ask for
forgiveness of your sin, acknowledge Jesus Christ as the Son of God and that He died on the Cross for your sin, and finally,
go and sin no more, but if you do, repent to God and ask for His forgiveness.  Then, you will truly know salvation and be free
to live your life with the guarantee of Salvation and Enternal Life through Jesus Christ.
   
                                                  
                                                    PATHWAY TO SALVATION

The only way for you to have eternal life and enter the kingdom of heaven is to pray the sinners prayer.  There are many
prayers out there, but there is the basic words that must be said. I have wrote a couple for you to choose from.  You must
remember you do have to change your ways of life and live the life that God and Jesus explain in the bible.  Have a constant
prayer life with Jesus asking daily for forgiveness of sins, help in your life, and thanking Him for what He has done and for
who He is.

     ABC'S OF SALVATION
     A - Acknowledge that you are a sinner
     B - Believe that Jesus is Lord and that God raised Him from the dead
     C - Confess (ask forgiveness) with your mouth and verbalize your belief

If you would like to accept Jesus as Lord of your life, you can prayone of the following prayers:

Lord, I confess that I have sinned against you and ask you to forgive me.  I am sorry that my sin has hurt You and other
people in my life.  I acknowledge that I could never earn salvation by my good works, but I come to you and trust in what
Jesus did for me on the cross.  I believe that You love me and that Jesus died and rose again so that I can be forgiven and
come to know You.  I ask you to come into my heart and that You would be Lord of my life.  I trust You with my life and I
thank You for loving me so much that I can know you here on earth, and spend the rest of eternity with You in heaven.  In
Jesus name, Amen.  


THE SINNERS PRAYER
Dear Lord Jesus, I confess that you are Lord. I realize that I am a sinner, and have fallen short of the glory of God. I believe
that you died on the cross at Calvary for the redemption of my sins, and that you rose on the third day to live forever.  I now
ask you to forgive me of my sins and to come into my life and make me a new creature through Christ Jesus.  I pray that you
will from this day forward be my Lord and Saviour, and dwell in me and help me to live a Christian life.  In Jesus name. Amen.

                                                                                                              OR

Dear Heavenly Father, I know that you sent Jesus your only Begotten Son to earth because you love me and for my sins to
be washed away.  I acknowledge that I am a sinner Lord and with my mouth I confess and ask forgiveness of all my sins
and ways.  I ask Jesus to cleanse me as white as snow with His blood that He had shed for me.  I ask you now Lord to come
into my heart and soul. I believe that Jesus Christ is Lord and Savior and that He died for me.  I believe that God raised
Jesus from the dead the third day and is alive today.  Thank you Lord for your blessings and I receive them today. Please
help me Lord to do your will and not my will. In Jesus name I ask of this. Amen.
                                                            A NEW LIFE WITH JESUS CHRIST

You may wish to follow these steps to a New Life with Jesus.  You must understand God has a purpose for you to have life
and that it is for both now and for all eternity.
              
"I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly."  John 10:10    
You have to recognizing that the problem is sin and separation.  You were created to know, love, and glorify God.  When
you chose to go our own way, living life in willful disobedience to God, you are choosing to be separated from God both
now and for all eternity.  As the the Bible says we are sinners…
              
"For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God."  Romans 3:23
But God is love…
              
"For God so loved the world that He gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not
                perish, but have eternal life."  John 3:16
God is also just…
              
"For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord."  Romans 6:23
You have to know you cannot save yourself, and because God is Holy, He cannot allow sin to enter into Heaven.  Most
people attempt to save themselves by their own efforts, good works, or church attendance. However the Bible says…
              
"There is a way that seems right unto man, but in the end it leads to death." Proverbs 14:12
How, then, can a sinful person enter Heaven where God allows no sin?  You are saved by grace.  The good news is, 'in
spite of our sin, Christ died for us.
              
"By grace you have been saved through faith, and not of yourself; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest any man
                should boast."  Ephesians 2:8-9
              "But God demonstrates His own love for us in this; while we were still sinners, Christ died for us."  Roman 5:8
Responding to God's gift by faith:
              
"If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead,
                you will be saved."  Romans 10:9


Now that you have accepted Jesus Christ as your Saviour, what now?  How to you mature and grow spiritualy to have a
intimate, personal relationship with Him?  The work starts now, and here is how you can begin growing in Him.
You should tell a pastor or Christian friend who will help you grow and find your gifts of service.
              
"It was he who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors   
                and teachers, to prepare God's people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up."
                      Ephesians 4:11, 12
You should join the church.  The church is where God's family encourages and supports one another.
               "How good and pleasant it is when brothers live together in unity!"  Psalm 133:1
You need to pray and read your Bible daily.  God communicates His will for your life through His Word and prayer.
               "Your word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path."  Psalm 119:105
Finally, you must find a Godly mentor.  More than just telling someone that you have accepted Jesus as your Saviour, your
mentor teaches you the ways of God and how to live a holy life.
               "In the same way, teach the older women to lead a holy life.  They must not tell lies about others.  They must not
                not let wine control them.  Instead, they must teach what is good."  Titus 2:3



Conclusion!
None of what I have put down on this website is new.  It has all been written and said by God, Jesus, The
Apostles, pastors, laymen, and friends, however we must all take note and make sure that Jesus Christ is
a part of our lives.  I implore you that if you should know someone that you have spoken to about your
relationship with Him that you do it again.  Do not leave any doubt that you are saved, and that you love
your friends and people you meet to want them to be saved.  If you have any questions about this, please
feel free to contact POL Christian Website or speak to someone that will help you spread the Good New
that Jesus Christ, your Saviour--my Saviour--our Saviour, is ALIVE!  He has conquerred death and wishes
everyone to live with Him into eternity.  Life is wonderful with Jesus in our lives.  Make sure to tell
everyone about Him.   Do not just talk the talk, but Walk the Walk.  Do not just speak it, but Live It.  Let His
Light shine through you so that you can be a living person for Jesus's "Pathway of Light."
