Step 1

Salvation
Needed

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 2
Why
Does a person
Need
to become a
Follower of
Christ?
Sure-Foundation.co.nr 3
. . .because
of
SIN
Sure-Foundation.co.nr 4
What is Sin?

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 5
•Sin is doing anything
that breaks God’s
laws.

Everyone who sins breaks the law; in fact,


sin is lawlessness.
1 John 3:4 (NIV)
Sure-Foundation.co.nr 6
•Sin is anything
we say that is
displeasing to
God.
But I say to you that for every idle word men may
speak, they will give account of it in the day of
judgment. For by your words you will be justified, and
by your words you will be condemned.”
Matt 12:36-37 NKJV
Sure-Foundation.co.nr 7
•Sin is anything
we think that is
displeasing to
God.

The thought of foolishness is sin:. . .


Prov 24:9 KJV

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 8
•Sin is not doing
some things we
should do.

Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does


not do it, to him it is sin.
James 4:17 NKJV

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 9
Sin is
Universal
• Rom 3:23 says, “For all have sinned and fall
short of the glory of God,

• According to this verse who sins?

EVERYONE!!!

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 10
Review - If Sin is:

• Breaking God’s laws


• Thinking that does not please
God
• Words that are not pleasing to
God
• Not doing the good we know to
do. . .

It is pretty EASY to SIN!


Sure-Foundation.co.nr 11
What are the
Consequences
of our sin?
• Sin MUST be punished by a
perfect and good GOD

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God


is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. Rom 6:23 NKJV

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 12
Do you know
what the word
WAGES
means?

• Wages are what we get for what


we do

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 13
Rom 6:23 For the
wages of sin is
death. . .

So our wages (what we get for


what we do) for our sin is
death.

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 14
The only punishment
God has for
SIN is the death
penalty.
• Death for sin is not about dying
physically
• It refers to a placed we call Hell

14 Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is
the second death. 15 And anyone not found written in the Book of
Life was cast into the lake of fire.
Rev 20:14-15 NKJV
Sure-Foundation.co.nr 15
The good news is. . .
GOD LOVES YOU!

• God does not want you to die for


your sin
• God does not want you to go to
Hell
Sure-Foundation.co.nr 16
REVIEW:

• People NEED to be saved because


of SIN!
• Everyone Sins
• The punishment for Sin is death,
or the place the Bible calls Hell
• God loves us and does not want
us to have to die for our sin and
go to Hell
Sure-Foundation.co.nr 17

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 20
Who is God’s Son?

to save the world from their sin

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 21
Jesus lived the
perfect life
• Because Jesus is God He is the only
person who never sinned.
• Heb 4:15 For we do not have a High Priest
who cannot sympathize with our
weaknesses, but was in all points tempted
as we are, yet without sin. NKJV
• Because He had no sin of His own He did
not have to be punished for sin.
• Because He had no sin, He could take the
punishment I deserved for My Sin upon
himself.

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 22
Jesus Died
for your sins
Jesus died on the cross

For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the
• Scriptures, 1 Cor 15:3 NKJV

He died for your sins!


Sure-Foundation.co.nr 23
Jesus arose from
the dead!
• Jesus defeated death and hell
• His resurrection promises us
everlasting life!

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 24
Jesus Ascended to
Heaven
and is there preparing
a place for us!

• "Let not your heart be troubled; you believe


in God, believe also in Me.2 In My Father's
house are many mansions; if it were not
so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a
place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a
place for you, I will come again and
receive you to Myself; that where I am,
there you may be also. John 14:1-3 NKJV
Sure-Foundation.co.nr 25
Jesus is coming
again someday!
• . . . if I go and prepare a place
for you, I will come again and
receive you to Myself; that
where I am, there you may be
also. John 14:3

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 26
Jesus is present
now
in His Holy Spirit
and wants to
Come into your
Heart!
• 20 For where two or three are gathered

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 27
Review:

• Why do we need to be saved?


• Because of Sin!
• How did God provide for our
Salvation?
• He sent Jesus Christ to be our
Savior.

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 28
Step 3
Salvation Offered

• How does God offer His


salvation to Us?

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 29
Salvation is a free gift!

• Do you like gifts for


birthdays or
Christmas?

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 30
God has a gift He
wants us to have!

• 23 For the wages of sin is death, but


the gift of God is eternal life in Christ
Jesus our Lord. Rom 6:23
NKJV

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 31
God’s GIFT is
Eternal Life!

• That means we life for ever and


ever.
• That is a long long time.

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 32
I have a gift I want
someone to Have!
Sure-Foundation.co.nr 33
So what do you do
if someone wants
to give you a gift?

•You TAKE it!


Sure-Foundation.co.nr 34
God has a gift for
you that He wants
you to take!

• His gift is everlasting life.


• He wants us to receive it.
• The problem is that this gift is
invisible, but is very real.
Sure-Foundation.co.nr 35
How do we receive
this invisible gift
from God?

• Repentance Toward God!


• FAITH in Jesus Christ!

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 36
Repentance
means to
CHANGE!
It may be a
change in
direction or in
mind or both.
Sure-Foundation.co.nr 37
The Bible Says:
10 For godly sorrow produces repentance leading
to salvation, not to be regretted; but the sorrow of
the world produces death.
2 Cor 7:10-11 NKJV

• There are two kinds of


sorrow
• One is worldly sorrow
• The other is Godly sorrow
Sure-Foundation.co.nr 38
Worldly Sorrow
means:
• You were sorry you got caught,
but you did not change your
mind about your sin, you would
do it again.
• That sorrow is of the world
• It leads to death, God’s
punishment on sin.

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 39
Godly Sorrow
means:

• We are truly sorry for our sin


• We want to change…
• our habit,
• our attitude,
• our actions,
• our behavior!

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 40
So Repentance
Means:

• To be sorry for our sin, but it is


more...
• It means to be sorry and to tell
God you are sorry for your sins,
but it still means more…
• It means to say we are sorry and
to turn toward God and start
living to please Him!
Sure-Foundation.co.nr 41
SO . . .WHAT IS
FAITH?
• Faith is resting on God’s promise.

• (Like sitting on a chair)


• Faith is taking God at His Word.
• (Like jumping into a Fireman’s
net)
• Faith is trusting God to do what
He said.
Sure-Foundation.co.nr 42
The Bible Says:

• 8 For by grace you have been


saved through faith, and that
not of yourselves; it is the gift of
God,9 not of works, lest anyone
should boast. Eph 2:8-10 NKJV

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 43
God offers us
salvation
As a free Gift!

• We receive this gift by


repentance toward God for our
sins . . .
• . . .and faith in Jesus Christ as
our Savior.

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 44
Review:

• Why do we need to be saved?


• Because of Sin!
• How did God provide for our Salvation?
• He sent Jesus Christ to be our Savior.
• How does God offer salvation to us?
• As a free Gift!
• How do we receive that gift?
• By repentance toward God and faith in
Jesus Christ.
Sure-Foundation.co.nr 45
STEP4
SALVATION ACCEPTED

Salvation Accepted
Salvation Offered - A Free Gift
Salvation Provided - Jesus Christ
Salvation Needed - Because of Sin
Sure-Foundation.co.nr 46
The Question of
the Day:

• Do you want God’s gift of


salvation?

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 47
How do we accept
God’s gift through
repentance and
faith?

• We do it through prayer.

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 48
What is prayer?

• Prayer is talking to God.


• Prayer is telling God
• how we feel…
• what we believe…
• what we need…
• what we want.

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 49
Through Prayer we
express our faith
to God and call on
Him.

• 13 For "whoever calls on the


name of the LORD shall be
saved.” Rom 10:13 NKJV

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 50
The Bible Says:

• 16 For God so loved the world


that He gave His only begotten
Son, that whoever believes in
Him should not perish but have
everlasting life. John 3:16

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 51
• 17 For God did not send His Son
into the world to condemn the
world, but that the world
through Him might be saved.
• John 3:17

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 52
• 18 "He who believes in Him is
not condemned; but he who
does not believe is condemned
already, because he has not
believed in the name of the only
begotten Son of God. John 3:19

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 53
THIS COULD BE THE
MOST IMPORTANT
CHOICE YOU EVER
MAKE!

• Your Mother can not be saved for you!


• Your Father can not trust in Jesus for you!
• The Preacher can not Believe in Jesus for you!
• You can not get saved by the actions of another
person!
• YOU and You alone must make that choice.
Sure-Foundation.co.nr 54
Does this make
sense to You?
• Have you sinned?
• Do you believe Jesus Died for
your sin?
• Do you believe you need to be
saved.
• Do you want to receive His gift
of salvation?
Sure-Foundation.co.nr 55
Consider this!

• If you have prayed to receive Jesus you do


not need to do it again.
• We do not want you to pray to be saved
unless you really meant it.
• Do not pray it because someone else does,
do it only if you want to.

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 56
If you have never
asked Jesus to save
you, would like to do
that today? Just
bow your head and
say this prayer.

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 57
• Jesus, I know I have
sinned.
• I am sorry for my sins and
ask you to forgive me.
• Come into my heart today
and save me.
• I believe you died for me.
• I believe you arose from
the grave and can save
me today.
• I trust you will do what
you said you would do.
AMEN
Sure-Foundation.co.nr 58
If You Prayed to
receive Jesus, the
Bible says that the
angels in heaven
are rejoicing right
now!

• 10 Likewise, I say to you, there is joy


in the presence of the angels of God
over one sinner who repents."
• Luke 15:10 NKJV

Sure-Foundation.co.nr 59
