How to Know Jesus as Lord and Savior
We at North Freedom Baptist Church believe that the Bible teaches that each person has sinned against a holy God and that we are separated from Him and need to be forgiven of our sin in order to truly know Him and be at peace with Him. The Bible teaches that the consequences for our sin against God is death. But that in His love for humanity, God provided a way for us to be forgiven and receive eternal life. The gifts of forgiveness of sin and eternal life are given freely to those who believe in Jesus as the Son of God, the one who died on a cross for the punishment of our sin and rose from the dead to new life.
Read the verses below and if you desire to have your sins forgiven and receive eternal life honestly tell Jesus that...
You believe you are a sinner, and deserve to die for your sin, that you hate your sin and that you desire turn away from it.
You believe that Jesus is the Son of God according to the Bible and that He died in your place taking your punishment for your sin upon Himself and rose from the dead three days later to new life.
You are surrendering your life to Him and accepting Him as Lord over your life.
You are thankful for His death for you so that you can be forgiven and receive eternal life.
