Dear Friend. Have you at one time in your life considered the importance of Salvation and Eternal Life? Did you know our Lord Jesus Christ came to find and save that that was lost (Luke 19:10) offering us the Salvation of our souls and Eternal Life. You might possibly know this already, BUT, Do you know how to be Saved?? The Bible and only the Bible is the Book where you can find The How to be Saved! Its true it was written by men, but these men which spoke & wrote the Holy Scriptures were inspired by the Holy Scriptures (2 Peter 1:21), therefore if you believe what was written by these men of God, lets consider in The Light of the Word the following reasoning’s in which we can reach Salvation, and to be worthy of Eternal Life.
HEAR THE WORD OF GOD
The first requirement is to HEAR. Romans Chapter 10:17 says “So then faith commeth by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.” So then hearing will prepare you to Believe.
BELIEVE
After you HEAR comes Belief. St. John 5:24 says “Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but has passed from death unto life.”
REPENT
After HEARING & BELIEVING you should REPENT. But do you know what REPENT means? It’s a profound pain or hurt, for doing something bad, SPECIALLY OFFENDING GOD. In other words REPENT means not wanting to do bad no more and stopping. Understanding this the person REPENTS and looks for forgiveness of their bad acts. How can we acquire forgiveness?? THERE IS ONLY ONE FORM AND ITS…
THE BAPTISM
Jesus said to Nicodemus in John 3:5 “Verily, Verily, I say unto thee, except a man be born of water (BAPTISM) and of the Spirit(HOLY SPIRIT) He cannot enter in the kingdom of God.” Also in Mark 16:15-16 “And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and Preach the Gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be condemned.” In the book of the Acts of the Apostles 2:38 Peter under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit and fulfilling our Lord’s commandment by saying “Repent and be baptized everyone of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the Remissions of sins, and ye shall receive the Gift of The Holy Ghost.” By Repenting and Being Baptized in The Name of Jesus Christ “for there is no other name under heaven given unto men, in which we must be saved”(Acts 4:12) ONLY IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST!! for it’s the name in which the Apostles , were we can find forgiveness of our sins and also receive the Holy Spirit as a seal from God.

Ephesians 1:13-14 says “In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that Holy Spirit of promise, which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his Glory.” Also Ephesians 4:30 Paul says “And grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of Redemption.” God speaks through his prophet Isaiah in 1:18 “Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord; though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.”
FIDELITY
After completing the requirements already mentioned last but not least with equal importance, FIDELITY, Obeying our Lord Jesus Christ commandments. Revelations 2:10 says “Be though faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.” Matthew 10:22 “and ye shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved.”

Dear friend what you have just read are the five requirements necessary to reach salvation and to be participants of Eternal Life. First its important to HEAR the Word of God, then BELIEVE it and ACCEPT IT, Then you must REPENT of your sins which will guide you to the BAPTISM in the name of JESUS CHRIST (Were we receive forgiveness of sins and receive the Holy Spirit). Finally is to be faithful to the Holy Scriptures.
