In order to be saved you must first realize that you are a sinner and that
you cannot make it to heaven on your own good merit. “As it is written,
There is none righteous, no, not one” (Romans 3:10 KJV). “For all have
sinned, and come short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23 KJV).
Secondly, you must recognize that salvation is made possible only by the
grace of God. “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 2:8-9 KJV).

Finally, you must believe in your heart that Jesus Christ died for your sins
and that he was raised from the dead. In Romans 10:9-10 KJV, Paul gives
specific instructions for salvation. “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.” In
the sixteenth chapter of Acts, the Philippian jailor asked Paul and Silas what
he must do in order to be saved. Their response to him still applies today.
“Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved”
