One of the first things we learn are the ABC’s. These basic building blocks of language form our framework for learning. In a similar way, God’s message of love and forgiveness has ABC’s, too. These simple truths, found in the Bible, are the essential foundation for understanding and receiving eternal life. ADMIT OUR NEED God is holy and we have fallen short of His perfect standard. Our sin separates us from God. “All have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.” Romans 3:23 “There is not a just man upon earth, that doeth good, and sinneth not.” Ecclesiastes 7:20 “Your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid His face from you.” Isaiah 59:2 “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the Holy is understanding.” Proverbs 9:10 “The wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Rom. 6:23 BELIEVE on Jesus God loves us so much that He sent Jesus to die for our sins. We receive eternal life by trusting fully in Him. “God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” John 3:16 “Christ died for our sins … was buried, and … rose again the third day according to the scriptures.” 1 Corinthians 15:3-4 “Verily, verily, I [Jesus] say unto you, He that believeth on Me hath everlasting life.” John 6:47 “If thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.” Romans 10:9 “As many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name.” John 1:12 “By grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast.” Ephesians 2:8-9 CALL out to Him God is waiting to hear from you. Talk with Him and accept the free gift of salvation He is offering you. “Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Romans 10:13 “Thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon Thee.” Psalm 86:5 “Seek ye the Lord while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near: let the wicked forsake his way … let him return unto the Lord, and He will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon.” Isaiah 55:6-7 Have you followed the ABC’s and trusted Jesus Christ as your Savior?
