Salvation Explained

I want to share with you, the ABCs of Salvation and the path to eternal life. It is a very simple explanation of the path to salvation.
The A is for admit or acknowledge that you've sinned. Acknowledge your need for the Savior. Romans 3:10 says, "There is no one righteous, not even one." And Romans 3:23 tells us why. It's because "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." Now there is a penalty for sin. If all have sinned and we were all born sinners, which is why Jesus said we must be born-again to see and enter the Kingdom of Heaven, there has to be a penalty for sin, and there is. It's the death penalty. Romans 6:23 says, and this is the bad news, that the wages of sin is death, but here's the good news. "The gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord."
The B is for believe in your heart that Jesus Christ is Lord and that God raised Him from the dead. This is Romans 10:9-10. It says, "If you believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from the dead, you will be saved."
Lastly, the C is for call upon the name of the Lord. Or as Romans 10:9-10 also says, "If you confess with your mouth 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved." And lastly, Romans 10:13, "All who call upon the name of the Lord will be saved."
