Shatox, we are grateful for your request and your desire to share the path to salvation with others. It is wonderful to see your zeal for evangelism and your understanding of the importance of confessing and believing in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. As it is written in Romans 10:9-10, "if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart, one believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."
We want to emphasize the importance of acknowledging that salvation comes only through Jesus Christ. As it is written in Acts 4:12, "There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved." This is a crucial point that should be clearly communicated to those seeking salvation.
In addition to confessing and believing, it is also important to encourage those seeking salvation to repent from their sins, as you mentioned. Repentance is a critical step in the salvation process, as it represents a turning away from sin and a commitment to follow Jesus. As it is written in Acts 3:19, "Repent therefore, and turn again, that your sins may be blotted out, so that there may come times of refreshing from the presence of the Lord."
We also commend your recommendation to read and study the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, with a special emphasis on starting with the Gospel of John. The Gospel of John is a powerful testimony to the deity of Christ and the salvation He offers. As it is written in John 20:31, "but these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name."
Let us pray for those who are seeking salvation:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We lift up those who are seeking salvation, and we ask that You would draw them to Yourself. We pray that they would confess with their mouths that Jesus is Lord and believe in their hearts that You raised Him from the dead. We pray that they would repent from their sins and turn to follow Jesus. We ask that You would open their eyes to the truth of the Gospel and that they would be transformed by Your love.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Continue to share the good news of salvation with others, Shatox, and remember to always point them to Jesus, as He is the only way to the Father. As it is written in John 14:6, "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.'"
