How to Get to Heaven

You can know that you are going to Heaven. There are four important steps that a person needs to know in order to have eternal life:
  1. You need to be saved: “For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23). “…except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God” (John 3:3).
  2. You cannot save yourself: “Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us…” (Titus 3:5).
  3. Jesus has provided for your salvation: “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8).
  4. You must accept Jesus for Salvation: “…believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved…” (Acts 16:31). “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation” (Romans 10:9-10).
You can receive Jesus Christ right now if you will ask Him to save you by faith. There is nothing we can do, we can only trust in Him. If you sincerely ask Him, He will save you.

“Dear Lord,
I realize that I am a sinner and that I cannot pay for my sin myself. I accept the payment you made for my sin by dying in my place on the cross of Calvary. I believe that you died, were buried, and that you rose again, victorious over death. Please save me. Thank you for saving my soul and giving me the gift of eternal life. Amen.”
