GOD’S PLAN OF SALVATION
Who Is Good?
Romans 3:10
As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
Who Has Sinned?
SRomans 3:23
For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
Where Did Sin Come From?
Romans 5:12
Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all men, because all sinned--
What Is the Price For Sin?
Romans 6:23
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Will God Forgive Me?
I John 1:9
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
Is There a Way of Escape?
Yes there is, and Jesus paid the price for us!
It is not God's desire that anyone should perish {II Peter 3:9} and so he allowed his Son Jesus Christ to die for us that we might live and have eternal life through Him.
Praise The Lord! We ought to be excited that we don't have to die and live a life of eternal damnation. Jesus served as a sacrifice for us and the shedding of his blood has made us whole. Glory to God!!
Romans 5:8
But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
Romans 10:9
That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
Romans 10:13
"Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."

Are You Ready To Call Upon The Name Of The Lord And Ask Him To Save You?
If you are, then pray this prayer:
Dear Lord, I confess that I am a sinner because all have sinned have come short of the glory of God. I ask you to forgive me of my sins because you say that if I confess my sins you will be faithful and just to forgive me and to cleanse me from all unrighteousness. I believe in my heart and I am confessing that Jesus Christ is Lord and you have raised him from the dead. Lord I thank you that I am now saved and I thank you that you loved me enough to give your son Jesus to save me. And from this day forward I will honor you and trust you. AMEN.
Now that you are saved, you can be assured of your salvation by
Ephesians 2: 8, 9
For by grace ye are saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
Not of works, lest any man should boast.

WHEN I SAY I AM A CHRISTIAN
When I say..."I am a Christian"
I'm not shouting "I am saved"
I'm whispering "I get lost!"
"That is why I chose this way
" When I say..."I am a Christian"
I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble
and need someone to be my guide.
When I say..."I am a Christian"
I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak
and pray for strength to carry on.
When I say..."I am a Christian"
I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed
and cannot ever pay the debt.
When I say..."I am a Christian"
I'm not claiming to be perfect,
my flaws are too visible
but God believes I'm worth it.
When I say..."I am a Christian"
I still feel the sting of pain
I have my share of heartaches
which is why I seek His name.
When I say..."I am a Christian"
I do not wish to judge.
I have no authority.
I only know I'm loved.

THE FIVE CROWNS
The bible specifically talks about 5 different crowns that will be given to some of God’s people when they enter into heaven. They will be for work that is done for God that is beyond the scope of what the average Christian may attempt to do. These crowns will be incorruptible and will last for all of eternity.
1. The Crown of Righteousness
This crown will be given to all of us who love Christ Jesus appearing. This is the second coming of Christ Jesus.
I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing. II Timothy 4:7-8
2. The Incorruptible Crown
For staying in the race, for finishing the course set for them, for serving God with all their heart, soul and spirit.
And every man who striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we are incorruptible. I Corinthians 9:25
3. The Crown of Life
This crown has been called by many the "martyr's crown." Jesus says that he will give this crown to those who undergo severe hardship, testing, tribulation or physical death on his behalf.
Fear none of these things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.
Revelation 2:10
4. The Crown of Rejoicing
This crown has been called the "soul winner's crown." God will give a crown to those who have been instrumental in getting others saved and led to him through the blood of his Son.
For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Are not even ye in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at His coming? For ye are our glory and joy. I Thessalonians 2:19-20
5. The Crown of Glory
This crown is telling the elders (pastor’s crown) of the church to "shepherd" the flock of God. They are the pastors, ministers and Sunday school teachers who teach the word of God.
And the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away. I Peter 5:4
