1. God created humans to experience peace and life, but separation from God due to sin prevents this. 2. Jesus Christ is the only way to bridge the gap between humans and God caused by sin. By believing in Jesus, who died for our sins, we can be reconciled to God. 3. To receive salvation, one must admit they are a sinner, repent of their sins, and invite Jesus into their life through prayer to control them through the Holy Spirit.

1. KNOWING
GOD

2. Step 1 GOD’S PURPOSE:
PEACE AND LIFE
God loves you and wants you to experience
peace and eternal life.
Romans 5:1
John 3:16
Since God planned for us to have peace and the full life
right now, why are most people not having it?

3. Step 2 OUR PROBLEM:
SEPARATION
God created us to be like Him and enjoy life. He did not force us
to love and obey Him but gave us a will and freedom of choice.
The first man and woman chose to disobey God and go their
own wilful way. We still make this choice today. This results in
separation from God.
Romans 3:23
Romans 6:23
Through the ages
MAN Individuals have
Unholy Tried in many ways GOD
To cross this gap…
-lying Holy
…without success.
-stealing Religion

4. Step 3 GOD’S ANSWER:
JESUS CHRIST
Jesus Christ is the only answer to this problem. He died on the
cross and rose from the grave, took the punishment for our sins
and bridged the gap between God and man.
1 Timothy 2:5
Romans 5:8
JESUS CHRIST
MAN GOD
There is only one
Sinful way of getting Holy
across this gap.

5. Step 4 OUR RESPONSE:
RECEIVE CHRIST
We must trust Jesus Christ and receive Him by
personal surrender and invitation.
Revelation 3:20
John 1:12
Are you here… Or here?
JESUS CHRIST GOD
MAN Peace
Sinful Joy
Life

6. BEGINNING WITH JESUS CHRIST
Is there any good reason why you do not want to invite Jesus Christ into
your life right now?
Here is how you can begin your life with Christ:
1. Admit your condition (I am a sinner).
2. Be willing to turn from your sins (repent).
3. Believe that Jesus Christ died for you on the cross and rose from the grave.
4. Through prayer, invite Jesus Christ to come and control your life through the Holy Spirit
(Receive Him as Lord and Saviour).
In Romans 10:9 we read: “If you confess that Jesus is Lord and believe that God raised him
from the death, you will be saved”.
Here is an example of how you can pray:
Dear Lord Jesus,
I know that I am a sinner and need your forgiveness. I believe that you died for my sins.
I now invite You to come in my life. I trust You as Saviour and follow You as Lord.
Than You, lord, for saving me.
Amen

7. GOD’S ASSURANCE:
HIS WORD
If you prayed this prayer the Bible says:
Everyone who calls out to the Lord for help will be saved
(Romans 10:13)
For it is by God’s grace that you have been saved through faith. It is
not the result of your own efforts, but God’s gift, so that no one can
boast about it (Ephesians 2:8-9).
Did you sincerely ask Jesus Christ to come into your life?
Where is He right now?
What has he given you?
Read God’s promise to you in 1 John 5:12-13

8. WALKING WITH GOD
This is the beginning of a wonderful new life in Christ:
1. Read your Bible everyday to get to know Christ better.
2. Talk to God in prayer every day.
3. Be controlled by the Holy Spirit.
4. Share your new life by your love and concern for others.
5. Find another Christian or two with whom you can pray and share
regularly your success and failures.
6. Worship and serve God with other Christians in a church where
Christ is preached.
GOD BLESS YOU AS YOU DO THIS
