Isaiah 53:3-6
3He [Jesus] was despised and rejected by men, a Man of sorrows, and familiar with suffering. Like one from whom men hide their faces He was despised, and we esteemed Him not. 4Surely He took up our infirmities and carried our sorrows, yet we considered Him stricken by God, smitten by Him, and afflicted. 5But He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by His wounds we are healed. 6We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way; and the LORD has laid on Him the iniquity of us all.

God Offers Us Salvation as a Gift, But We Must Accept It

8For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith– and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God– 9not by works, so that no one can boast. 10For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

You can receive God’s gift of salvation and eternal life simply by asking for it with a sincere heart and a repentant attitude. Why not pray this prayer to God?
Dear God, I believe that You are the Creator of everything…
I know that as such, You require holiness as You are holy…
I confess to You that I am a sinner, and deserve eternal punishment…
I know that I cannot save myself from the penalty of sin…
I believe that You sent Your Son, Jesus, to this earth to die for my sin…
I believe that Jesus rose from the grave and lives today…
I ask You to forgive my sin… wash me clean and in the blood of Christ
I want Jesus to be my Savior…Come into my heart Lord Jesus!
Help me now live for You and bring You glory!
Thank you for saving me! In Jesus’ Name I pray.. Amen.
