The Most Important Decision

There are many decisions each of us must make during our life time.
Some of these decisions are important and some of them are not.
However, the most important decision each of us must make during our life
is whether or not to accept Jesus as our Savior.
This is what people mean when they talk about getting saved.
Being saved is not something that just happens.
You are not saved because your parents are saved,
or because you go to church every Sunday.
You must make a deliberate decision to be saved.

What does it mean to be saved?
Being saved means accepting what Jesus Christ
has done for us as individuals,
and asking Him to become our Savior.
This means believing Jesus was the Son of God and that
He died on the cross as a sacrifice to pay the price for our sins.

Why do I need to be saved?
Each person that has ever lived, with the exception of Jesus,
needs to be saved because each of us have sinned.
We sin any time we do something God has told us not to do,
or any time we do not do something He has told us to do.
Because God is holy He cannot be around people who have sinned
and done wrong things. Just like when you break a rule at school or
home and get punished for it, there is a punishment for sinning
and that is, being separated from God forever.
But, God still loves you and wants to be your friend.
So, He sent His only son to take your punishment for you.
But, you have to believe Jesus did this for you and accept it
as a free gift in order to be saved. If you get saved, the Bible tells us
that you will not only become God's friend but that
He will adopt you and make you one of His children.
