You Found Jesus

If you are visiting this website, most likely “You Found Jesus!” Congratulations!!

 

What we want you to know is that this little plastic figure is NOT a good luck charm nor does it possess any special powers.

 

This little figurine was placed so that people just like you could be reminded that Jesus is always near, always seeking, and always ready to welcome you with open arms. It’s not about the object itself—it’s about the message it represents: the love and salvation found in Jesus Christ.

 

Discovering Jesus is the most life-changing experience you can have. But what does it mean to be saved? How can you be sure of eternal life? The Bible provides clear answers, and we’re here to guide you through the simple yet powerful plan of salvation.

 

1. Recognize That You Need a Savior

Romans 3:23 – "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God."

 

We are all sinners, and sin separates us from God. No matter how good we try to be, we cannot reach God's perfect standard on our own.

 

2. Understand the Consequence of Sin

Romans 6:23 – "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord."

 

Sin leads to spiritual death and eternal separation from God. But the good news is that God offers the gift of eternal life through Jesus Christ.

 

3. Believe in Jesus Christ

John 3:16 – "For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life."

 

Jesus died on the cross to pay for our sins. Through His sacrifice, we can receive forgiveness and be made right with God.

 

4. Confess and Repent of Your Sins

Romans 10:9 – "If you declare with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord,’ and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved."

 

Repentance means turning away from sin and turning toward God. It’s not just saying sorry—it’s a heartfelt decision to follow Jesus.

 

5. Receive Salvation Through Faith

Ephesians 2:8-9 – "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast."

 

Salvation is a gift. You cannot earn it by good deeds or religious rituals. It is given freely to those who trust in Jesus alone.

 

6. Start Your New Life in Christ

2 Corinthians 5:17 – "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!"

 

Once you accept Jesus, you are made new. Begin your journey by reading the Bible, praying daily, and joining a Bible-believing church to grow in your faith.

 

Ready to Take the Next Step?

 

If you are ready to accept Jesus as your Savior, pray this simple prayer from your heart:

 

"Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner. I believe that You died for my sins and rose again. I ask for Your forgiveness and invite You into my heart as my Lord and Savior. Help me to live for You from this day forward. Amen."

 

If you prayed this prayer, congratulations! You are now a child of God. Please reach out to us so we can help you on your journey of faith.

 

Also, know that we are here to pray with you for any need you might have.
