HOW CAN WE BE BORN AGAIN?
The plan of salvation is right in the Bible. God gives us His clear plan for being
born again. 

First, we must acknowledge God as the Creator of everything, and
accept our humble position in God's creation. Thou art worthy, O Lord, to
receive glory and honor and power; for thou hast created all things, and for
thy pleasure, they are and were created.(Revelation 4:11). 
 

Next, we must realize that we are sinners. For all have sinned and come short
of the glory of God (Romans 3:23). Because we are sinners, we are condemned
to death. For the wages of sin is death (Romans 6:23). This includes eternal
separation from God. 

But God loved each of us so much that He gave His only
begotten Son, Jesus, to bear our sin and die in our place. But God commendeth
his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us
(Romans 5:8). Although we cannot understand how God said our sins were laid
upon Jesus and He died in our place. Jesus became our substitute. 
In the Bible, a jailer asked his prisoners, Paul and Silas Sirs, what must I do to be saved? 
And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy
house. (Acts 16:30-31). It's very clear in the Bible, believe in Jesus as the one
who bore your sins, died in your place, was buried, and whom God resurrected.
Christ's blood and resurrection that assures us of everlasting life when we
call on Him as our Lord and Savior. For whosoever shall call upon the name of
the Lord shall be saved. (Romans 10:13). Whosoever includes each and every
one of us. Therefore, if you understand that you are a sinner, and you believe
that Jesus Christ came as the one and only Redeemer of sin, then you
understand the plan of salvation. The question is – are you ready to implement
the plan, by receiving God's gift of His Son, Jesus Christ? If so, believe in Christ,
repent of your sins, and commit the rest of your life to Him as Lord: Father, I
know that I have broken your laws and my sins have separated me from you. I
am truly sorry, and now I want to turn away from my past sinful life toward you.
Please forgive me and help me avoid sinning again. I believe that your son, Jesus
Christ died for my sins, was resurrected from the dead, is alive, and hears my
prayer. I invite Jesus to become the Lord of my life, to rule and reign in my heart

from this day forward. Please send your Holy Spirit to help me obey You, and to
do Your will for the rest of my life. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.
2. BAPTISM:
Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the
remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost." (Acts 2:38) If
you decided to receive Jesus today, welcome to Gods family. Now, as a way to
grow closer to Him, the Bible tells us to follow up on our commitment. Get
baptized as commanded by Christ. Tell someone else about your new faith in
Christ. Spend time with God each day. It does not have to be a long period of
time. Just develop the daily habit of praying to Him and reading His Word. Ask
God to increase your faith and your understanding of the Bible. Seek fellowship
with other followers of Jesus. Develop a group of believing friends to answer
your questions and support you. Find a local church where you can worship
God.
3. OUR RESPONSE: 
We have all sinned and deserve God's judgment. God, the Father, sent His only
Son to satisfy that judgment for those who believe in Him. Jesus, the creator
and eternal Son of God, who lived a sinless life, loves us so much that He died
for our sins, taking the punishment that we deserve, was buried, and rose from
the dead according to the Bible. If you truly believe and trust this in your heart,
receiving Jesus alone as your Savior, declaring, Jesus is Lord you will be saved
from judgment and spend eternity with God in heaven.
