Salvation refers to the process of being saved or rescued from harm or danger. Salvation is a central concept in Christianity, referring to the process by which a person is saved from sin and granted eternal life in Heaven. It is viewed as the ultimate goal of the Christian faith and is achieved through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
SEPARATION FROM GOD
According to the Bible, all humans are born with a sinful nature and are separated from God. However, through faith in Jesus Christ, we can be saved from our sins and reconciled with God. It is often described as a gift from God that cannot be earned through good deeds or actions, but only through faith.
SALVATION
Salvation is not only a one-time event but a continuous process of growth in one’s faith and relationship with God. It requires repentance, the turning away from sin, and the embrace of a new life in Christ. This transformation is commonly referred to as being "born again" or "saved." This process of salvation involves repentance, faith, and a commitment to follow Jesus.
Salvation is not something that can be earned through good works or religious observance. It is a gift from God that is freely given to those who believe in Jesus Christ. However, this free gift of salvation comes with a responsibility to live a life that is pleasing to God and to share the message of salvation with others.+
REPENT
Repentance involves recognizing and confessing our sins. It is a willingness to turn away from our sinful ways and to turn towards God.
FAITH
Faith is an essential component of salvation. It involves placing our trust in Jesus Christ as our savior and believing that He died on the cross for our sins. This faith is not just an intellectual belief, but a personal relationship with Jesus that transforms our lives.
COMMITMENT TO FOLLOW JESUS
Salvation involves a commitment to follow Jesus, to live a life of obedience to His teachings and seeking to serve others in love
CONCLUSION
In conclusion, salvation is a central concept in Christianity that involves being saved from sin and granted eternal life through faith in Jesus Christ. It involves repentance, faith, and a commitment to follow Jesus. While salvation is a gift from God that cannot be earned, it comes with a responsibility to live a life that is pleasing to God and to share the message of salvation with others.

7. SAY THE FOLLOWING PRAYER.
Dear God In Heaven…
I come to you in the name of Jesus. I confess that I am a sinner and I’m sorry for my sins, the way I’ve lived, and the things I’ve done.
Please forgive me and cleanse me with your precious blood from all unrighteousness.
With my mouth, I confess the Lord Jesus. In my heart, I believe that God raised Jesus from the dead and He is alive.
This very moment, I accept Jesus Christ as my Savior and I make Him the Lord of my life.
And according to Your Word, which cannot lie, I’m washed, I’m cleansed, I’m forgiven, and I am saved.
Praise God in Jesus name!
Note: If you have just prayed this prayer and meant it from your heart, Praise the Lord!
2 Corinthians 5:17 says “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.”

8. TELL SOMEONE ELSE WHAT YOU JUST DID.
This is to confirm you salvation and makes you accountable to live like a Christian. God doesn’t want us to be “Closet Christians!” Romans 10:9-10 says that the very act of becoming a Christian requires us to confess publicly that we have accepted Jesus Christ as our Savior and have placed our faith in His shed blood to atone for our sins.
