What is Salvation?
Do you know Jesus as your Savior?
Statement of Faith
I believe in one God—eternally existent in three Persons: God the Father, God the Son (Jesus Christ), and God the Holy Spirit. They are not three gods, but one God in perfect unity, love, and power.
God the Father is the Creator of all things—holy, sovereign, and full of mercy.
Jesus Christ is the Son of God, fully God and fully man. He was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, died on the cross for our sins, rose from the dead on the third day, and now sits at the right hand of the Father as our Advocate and coming King.
The Holy Spirit dwells in every believer, guiding, empowering, and transforming us daily to live in truth and holiness.
Salvation is not something we earn—it’s a free gift of grace through faith in Jesus Christ.
Every one of us is born into sin, separated from God. But because of God’s love, Jesus took our place on the cross. His blood paid the price. His resurrection broke the power of sin and death. When you believe in Him and surrender your life, you're forgiven, made new, and adopted into the family of God.
You don’t need a fancy ritual or perfect words—just a real heart and a willing spirit.
What It Means to Be Saved
How to Ask Jesus Into Your Heart
If you're ready to be saved, to truly know Him, you can pray something like this:
“Jesus, I believe You are the Son of God. I believe You died for my sins and rose again. I need You. I ask You to forgive me, to come into my heart, and to be my Lord and Savior. I give You my life—every part of it. Teach me how to walk with You, live for You, and trust You. In Your name, amen.”
It’s not magic words—it’s faith and surrender. When you truly believe and give Him your heart, He receives you instantly, completely, and forever.
Now What? Don’t Stop Here.
If you just gave your heart to Jesus—welcome to the family of God! This is the start of a brand-new life, not a one-time moment. So don’t stop here. Chase Him with everything you’ve got.
“You will seek Me and find Me when you seek Me with all your heart.” – Jeremiah 29:13
Now’s the time to go all in:
Seek Him daily in prayer, worship, and the Word. He’s not hiding—He’s waiting for you to show up.
Get a Bible. Start reading in the book of John or Romans. Ask the Holy Spirit to help you understand it. (He will.)
Find a Bible-believing church—not just one that meets your vibe, but one that teaches God’s truth straight from Scripture. You need a spiritual family that will walk with you, challenge you, and help you grow.
Learn what it means to follow Jesus—His life, His teachings, and His call to radical obedience.
Be baptized. It doesn’t save you, but it’s your public declaration that Jesus has changed your life. It’s your “I’m all in” moment—and it matters.
Don’t treat your salvation like a souvenir. It not something you tuck away—it’s the beginning of a whole new way to live.
Transform your life through faith and neuroscience.
