Jesus Christ clearly stated in His Word that He alone is the way, the truth, and the life. No one gets to God any other way. (John 14:6)John 14:6: Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me.. Salvation requires complete belief and trust in Christ alone. No work or action by an individual can get that person to heaven. True salvation comes from believing in Jesus for salvation (John 3:16-18)John 3:16-18: (16) For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (17) For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through Him might be saved. (18) He that believeth on Him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God., acknowledging and repenting of our sins (Luke 13:3)Luke 13:3: I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish., (Romans 3:23)Romans 3:23: For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God., (Romans 6:23)Romans 6:23: For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord., receiving Jesus as Savior (John 1:11-13)John 1:11-13: (11) He came unto His own, and His own received Him not. (12) But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name: (13) Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God., and confessing our sins to Him (Romans 10:9-10)Romans 10:9-10: (9) 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. (10) For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.. When a person truly accepts Jesus Christ as their Savior, their life, desires, and goals are changed. God gives the new believer a peace that passes all understanding that gives stability and purpose to life (Philippians 4:7-9)Philippians 4:7-9: (7) And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. (8) Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. (9) Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.. This change truly is “the Miracle of Salvation.”
