Let’s go through 4 H’s. Honesty, Humility, Helpless, and Hope
H #1) You must be HONEST enough to admit you have sinned and broken God‘s commands. Understand in doing so this puts you in very great danger!
Romans 3:10 “there is none righteous, no not one.”
Romans 3:23 “…all have sinned…”
I John 1:8 “if we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.”
H #2) You must be HUMBLE enough to admit you deserve Hell when you die. One sin disqualifies us from Heaven, and we have all sinned more than once.
Romans 6:23 “For the wages of sin [is] death”
Revelation 21:8 “But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.”
H #3) You must understand you are HELPLESS when it comes to you saving yourself from going to Hell when you die. There is nothing you can do to pay for your own sin.
Ephesians 2:8-9 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.
Titus 3:5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;
Galatians 2:16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. Understand when I say HELPLESS it means you cannot surrender your life to Christ for salvation. You have no life to surrender. You are dead in trespasses and sins. You cannot yet make Jesus the Lord of your life because you have no life. Jesus will not be Lord of your life until He is Savior of your soul. You cannot turn from your sins because you are dead in your sins. You must see yourself HELPLESS at the Mercy of God. Now you are ready for
H # 4.) You are helpless but not hopeless. Your HOPE must be in Jesus, God’s Son and what he has done for you on the cross when He died there. Jesus is the only one that paid for your sins when he died on the cross. He was buried and arose again. You must ask Jesus to be your personal Savior and ask Jesus to save you from Hell. If you are depending on church membership to save you, that means you are not depending on Jesus to save you. If you are depending on the good deeds you do to save you, that means you are not depending on Jesus to save you. If you are depending on baptism to save you, that means you are not depending on Jesus to save you. It must be Jesus and what Jesus did for you on the cross that you are depending on to save you. Nothing else can go with this. Jesus is the only one who paid for your sins on the cross so Jesus is the only one who can save you.
Romans 5:8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
I Peter 3:18 For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but quickened by the Spirit.
Hebrews 10:12 But this man (JESUS) after he hath offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God. 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.
Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
John 3:16 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. Ask Jesus to save you before it is too late: Romans 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
