See how simple it is to be transformed from death to life? Believe that Jesus rose from the dead and proclaim it aloud that HE is LORD and you are saved. Saved from eternal damnation. Saved from walking this world in your own feeble strength and wisdom. Saved from the uncomfortable pondering of whether or not you can ever be good enough. Salvation is such an incredible gift. And out of gratitude for it, there needs to be follow-through. Jesus saves us—that’s His action for us. Making Him Lord of our lives—that’s our action for Him. If we believe it, then let’s live it. Let’s live it openly and honestly and unashamedly because we are in a world filled with souls who do not have our security. They NEED a Savior. Confess Him! Share Him! Let the whole world know that Jesus saves!
