Say Yes to Life

[ English | Vietnamese ]

Did you know God has a wonderful plan for you? "I have come," Jesus says, "that [you] may have life, and have it to the full" (John 10:10). Here's what God's Word, the Bible, says about this Good News.

1. God's Plan--Peace and Life

God loves you and wants you to fully experience the peace and life that only He can give. The Bible says, "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son [Jesus Christ], that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life" (John 3:16).

2. Humanity's Problem--Separation

Being at peace with God is not automatic, because human beings by nature are separated from God. The Bible says, "All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" (Romans 3:23). Romans 6:23 adds: "The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." Humanity has tried to bridge this separation in many ways... but without hope of ever succeeding.

3. God's Remedy--The Cross

God's love bridges the gap of separation between God and humanity. When Jesus Christ died on the cross and rose from the grave, He paid the penalty for our sins. In the Bible, Jesus Christ says, "I am the way and the truth an the life. No one comes to the Father except through me" (John 14:6).

4. Our Response--Receive Jesus Christ

God invites us to respond to His love by crossing the bridge through trusting Jesus Christ. This means accepting Christ's death on the cross as payment for our personal sins and receiving Him as our Savior and Lord. The Bible says, "To all who received him [Jesus Christ], to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God" (John 1:12).

God Invites You To:

Repent (turn from your sins), by faith receive Jesus Christ into your heart and life, and follow Him in obedience as the Lord of your life.

Will You Say Yes To Life? Then Pray:

O God, I know I am a sinner. Right now I repent and turn from my sins. I believe Jesus Christ died for my sins, rose from the grave, and is alive forever. I open the door of my heart and life, receiving Jesus Christ as my Savior. I want to follow Him as Lord of my life. Thank you for saving me. In Jesus name, amen.
