The One who died for all!

“My salvation is eternal and life changing. Come to know Me for who I am!”

I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.” John 10:10

The gift of salvation begins with an upward calling from God. You hear the gospel and make a decision by faith to live for God. You become a new creature in Christ Jesus who finds your hope in God and not in the things of the world.

This precious gift is available to all through Christ Crucified. There is no other way.

Salvation begins at the moment of decision for Christ and has no ending. This decision is to know Christ and live for Him. It has nothing to do with works. If you build your relationship with God on works you will never experience the efficacy of the Living Christ. God wants your absolute loyalty to Him above all else.

Salvation is a recognition of your helpless and corrupt inner condition and understanding your only hope is in the Cross. Until you get to this point you are just going through the motions.

The Cross is following the life of Jesus. You die to self and become resurrected as a new creature in Christ Jesus.

The Cross enables you to live in oneness with Christ through the Holy Spirit. The Spirit is your lifeline to God.

The purpose of salvation is not to make you into a self righteous individual. This approach is abominable to God and negates the value of the Cross. The righteousness belongs to God not to you and is designed for one purpose only—to draw people into a living relationship with Christ.

Salvation is not about keeping yourself clean. It is about getting your hands dirty as you reach out to those living in darkness. The sinner will respond to you when you come to Him as a broken and repentant human being.

God delights in sharing Himself with you. Today you can experience salvation through the work of the Cross. Come to Christ for your every need. He stands at your door knocking!

Jesus will convict you of sin and offer forgiveness through His life saving blood. He will fill you with His strength, wisdom, and joy. He will guide your footsteps and be your fortress of protection.

Most importantly, you will meet the Living Christ and stand in awe of His greatness and glory. There is no one like Him!
