Getting started is as easy as ABCD.

Admit that you are a sinner and that you can’t perfect or save yourself. Romans 3:23 says that “all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God”.

Believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. Romans 6:23 says that the “wages of sin is death” and the “gift of God is Jesus Christ”. Jesus died on the cross to pay the price for sins we committed. We could never pay that price. God paid it for us.

Confess your sins to God and embrace God’s gift in Jesus Christ. Romans 5:8 says that God “demonstrates His own love for us in this: while we were still sinners, Christ died for us”.

Decide to follow Jesus with your life. Romans 10:13 “for everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved”.

Pray a prayer similar to this one: “Dear Jesus, I have sinned before God by rejecting you. I confess my sins and ask you to come into my heart to be the focus of my life. I give my life to you and accept your forgiveness. I know you will grant me strength for today, even as I now have hope for tomorrow because you paid the price for my sins”. Amen.
