1. Understand that our sin separates us from God.
     "For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God." Romans3:23
 
2. Know that salvation is a gift of God.
   "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 6:23
 
3. Are you someone who thinks you must make things right before you can come to God?
     "But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." Romans 5:8
 
4. It is by God's grace and mercy that we are saved and not by any works that we may do.
     "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works lest any man should boast." Ephesians 2:8
 
5. Believe that God raised up Jesus Christ From the grave and accept him as your Lord and Savior.
     "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." Romans10:9-10
 
Salvation is a free gift of God, we must confess with our mouth and believe with our heart that Jesus shed his blood,
died on the cross for our sins and rose again on the third day. After confessing our sins and excepting Jesus as our savior we need to:
 
1. Attend church school and church services regularly.
     "Not Forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching." Hebrews 10:25 
 
2. Read God's word and pray daily.
     "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." 2nd Timothy 2:15
     "Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints." Ephesians 6:18
