Jesus
The Way, the Truth, the Life. There is no other way.
Jesus
It All Starts With Jesus
We believe that God created the world and everything in it, including you, and He wants to begin a personal, one-on-one intimate relationship with you today.
I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you really know me, you will know my Father as well.
– John 14:6
The key to understanding the plan of salvation is that it is God’s plan, not man’s plan. Human nature’s plan of salvation would be observing religious rituals or obeying certain commands or living good and honest lives and being “good.” But none of these things are part of God’s plan of salvation.
God's Plan of Salvation - The Why
First of all, we must understand why we need to be saved. Simply put, we need to be saved because we have sinned. The Bible declares that everyone has sinned (Romans 3:23). Sin is rebellion against God and we all choose to do things that are wrong. The Bible also teaches that, because God is holy and just, He cannot allow sin to go unpunished. The punishment for sin is death (Romans 6:23) and eternal separation from God (Revelation 20:11–15). Without God’s plan of salvation, eternal death is the destiny of every human being.

God's Plan of Salvation - The What
God Himself is the only one who can provide for our salvation. We cannot save ourselves because of our sin and its consequences. God became a human being in the Person of Jesus Christ (John 1:1, 14). Jesus lived a sinless life and offered Himself as a perfect sacrifice on our behalf (Hebrews 10:10). Since Jesus is God, His death was of infinite and eternal value. The death of Jesus Christ on the cross fully paid for the sins of the entire world (1 John 2:2). His resurrection from the dead demonstrated that His sacrifice was indeed sufficient and that salvation is now available.
God's Plan of Salvation - The How
In Acts 16:31, a man asked the apostle Paul how to be saved. Paul’s response was, “Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved.” The way to follow God’s plan of salvation is to believe. That is the only requirement (John 3:16; Ephesians 2:8–9). God has provided for our salvation through Jesus Christ. All we must do is receive it, by faith, fully trusting in Jesus alone as Savior, and that He fully paid the price for the sin and the judgment of that sin that awaited us. That is God’s plan of salvation.

God's Plan of Salvation - The Decision
If you are ready to follow God’s plan of salvation, place your faith in Jesus as your Savior. Change your mind from embracing sin and rejecting God to rejecting sin and embracing God through Jesus Christ. Fully trust in the sacrifice of Jesus as the perfect and complete payment for your sins. If you do this, God’s Word promises that you will be saved, your sins will be forgiven, and you will spend eternity in heaven. This is the most important decision of your life. Place your faith in Jesus Christ as your Savior today!
