If you have not yet accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior, then I implore you on Christ’s behalf to do so now! (2 Corinthians 5:20) Do not spend another moment separated from God. (Isaiah 59:2) You do not know when your last moment here on earth will come. Psalm 144:3-4 says, "Lord, what is man, that thou takest knowledge of him! or the son of man, that thou makest account of him! Man is like to vanity: his days are as a shadow that passeth away." (Psalm 144:3-4, KJV)
God has brought you here and He is sharing the Gospel with you. Now you must respond. To turn away is to reject God and His free gift of eternal salvation in Jesus. Today is the day and now is the time to put your faith in Jesus! (2 Corinthians 6:2) Please read the Verses below to learn how to accept Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior.
If you have already accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior then, rejoice in the Lord always! (Philippians 4:4) Be encouraged that you have been set free from the law of sin and death and have been made alive to God in Christ Jesus! (Romans 6:11, Romans 8:1-2) You are a new creation in Christ, your old self is gone, and the new self is here! (2 Corinthains 5:17) Forget the former things and strive toward what is ahead in Christ Jesus our Savior! (Philippians 3:13-14) We are now vessels through which God shares His Word with others. (2 Corinthians 5:18) Let us offer ourselves to God as workmen approved who do not need to be ashamed but who serve the Lord our God wholeheartedly with undivided devotion to the God! (2 Timothy 2:15, 1 Corinthians 7:35) We read in 2 Corinthians, “ Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more. Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God. For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.” (2 Corinthians 5:16-21, KJV)
Therefore, we can rejoice in the Lord and strive toward what is ahead joyfully proclaiming the Gospel to all people. These Verses below, will be helpful as you share the Gospel with others. Be encouraged to memorize these Verses or print this out and have it with you always. Writing these Verses on notecards, to have with you, would be helpful and can help you to memorize them as well.
