the cross was meant to punish
the lamb of innocence
but instead it was the tool
used for mass deliverance
such suffering has not been seen
before or ever since
such is the depth of purest love
beyond all common sense
to pour out his very life
and hang dying upon the cross
his love he satisfied
by granting grace unto the lost
the cross was used to crush
Satan's evil plight
tis a sword to those who trust
in the Lord and yearn to fight
not a symbol of religion
but a reminder of his love
his enduring sacrifice
as he hung above
the earth within eternity
cursed upon the tree
he bore the sins of the world
to set us sinners free
if you have been moved in your heart by this poem please think carefully about committing your life to christ because he in turned gave up his very life to pardon all your sins, (past, present, and future sins)
so that we no longer need to live life without a purpose but we can live for the purpose God had for us before we were even born..
Salvation Prayer - The Simple Steps:
1. Acknowledge in your heart that Jesus is Lord.
2. Confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord.
3. Believe that Jesus died for your sins and was raised three days later.
4. Repent of your sins and get baptized in the name of Jesus.
Salvation Prayer - Merely a Tool to Communicate Our Faith
The Salvation Prayer is not a ritual based on specific words. This is not the power of a prayer, but the power of truly committing our lives to Christ as Savior and Lord. The following is merely a guideline for our sincere step of faith:
"God, I recognize that I have not lived my life for You up until now. I have been living for myself and that is wrong. I need You in my life; I want You in my life. I acknowledge the completed work of Your Son Jesus Christ in giving His life for me on the cross at Calvary, and I long to receive the forgiveness you have made freely available to me through this sacrifice. Come into my life now, Lord. Take up residence in my heart and be my king, my Lord, and my Savior. From this day forward, I will no longer be controlled by sin, or the desire to please myself, but I will follow You all the days of my life. Those days are in Your hands. I ask this in Jesus' precious and holy name. Amen."
If you decided to repent of your sins and receive Christ today, welcome to God's family. Now, as a way to grow closer to Him, the Bible tells us to follow up on our commitment.
Get baptized as commanded by Christ.
Tell someone else about your new faith in Christ.
Spend time with God each day. It does not have to be a long period of time. Just develop the daily habit of praying to Him and reading His Word. Ask God to increase your faith and your understanding of the Bible.
Seek fellowship with other followers of Jesus. Develop a group of believing friends to answer your questions and support you.
Find a local church where you can worship God
