I finally got a hold of Syatong - my personal online diary and this post is my first one. It is a transcription of a Gospel Tract (by the way, you can download a copy here and print it for an easy reading). And through this, I am going to share to you a very important matter - a Gift from GOD. And as you read through the end, I pray for the Holy Spirit to guide you.

The Gift
It's that time of the year again. A time of gifts and merriment, and a time to remember the birth of Jesus Christ the Saviour. So, why did Jesus come to this world?
In John 3:17, we read,
"For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved."So how do we get saved?
STEP 1- Accept that you are a sinner...
Romans 3:23 "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;"Everyone, including you, has fallen short of Heaven because of our individual sin.
STEP 2 - Realize there is a price for sin...
Romans 6:23a "For the wages of sin is death;.."The penalty for our sin is death - separation from God for eternity in a literal, burning Hell. There are no exceptions; even 'moral' people will die for their sins.
STEP 3 - Know Someone had to pay...
Romans 5:8 "But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us."God loves you so much, and He proved that love by sending Jesus Christ, His sinless Son, to die in your place on the Cross. Jesus Christ was the perfect sacrifice; He paid the entire penalty for your sin.
STEP 4 - Take God's Gift...
Romans 6:23b "... the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."Forgiveness of sins and assurance of Heaven cannot be earned by good works or religion. Good works and religion will send you to Hell. Salvation is a gift, and a gift is free; it cannot be paid for by the receiver.
STEP 5 - This Gift is the ONLY way...
Romans 10:13 "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."Only faith in Jesus Christ can save you from your sin. The 'whosoever' means you. Right now is the best time to take God at His Word and receive His free Gift; and be saved and go to Heaven.
You have just read HOW to receive the GIFT of salvation. It is now up to you...
To place your faith in Jesus Christ, you may want to pray a simple prayer like this...
"Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner. I deserve to go to Hell, the penalty for my sin. I believe You are the Son of God who loves me, and that You died and rose again from the dead. I now ask You to please forgive me all my sins. Please come into my heart and life, and take me to Heaven when I die. Thank you for saving me, and help me now to live for You. Amen."If you have just prayed to receive Jesus Christ as your personal Saviour, we would like to send you some free information on the Christian life. Please write today, and tell us that you have accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as your Saviour.

Wow! How wonderful is our Lord! Thank you for reading. Be blessed and to God be the glory! And before I am going to end this post, I listed down some Bible verses about being in Christ Jesus:
John 1:12 "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:"
1 John 5:10-15 "He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son. And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us: And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him."
2 Corinthians 5:17 "Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new."
