It is Lola’s fervent prayer that you be introduced to God’s Grace…Amazing Grace with Salvation through Jesus Christ our LORD, so you too can join him in Heaven when your work on earth is through. God left His simple directions in His Holy Word.
The Problem: We are all sinners by nature and by choice. Romans 3:23 – “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God”
The Predicament: We can’t get there by ourselves. Romans 4: 4-5 – “Now to him who works, the wages are not counted as grace but as debt. But to him who does not work, but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is account for righteousness”
The Penalty: There is a consequence for our sin. Romans 5:12 – “Therefore, just as through one man, sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men because all have sinned”
The Provision: God demonstrated His love for us. Romans 5:8 – “But God demonstrates His own love towards us in that while we were still sinners Christ died for us”
The Pardon: We receive eternal life as a free gift! Romans 6:23 – “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
The Process: We must trust and surrender to Jesus as Lord. Romans 10: 9-10 – “That if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation”
The Promise: We have assurance of salvation through Jesus. Romans 10:13 – “For everyone that calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
