GOD'S SIMPLE PLAN OF SALVATION FROM JOHN Why did Jesus die? 1. Man by nature does evil (wrong). It is not hard to admit that we all have done things that we know is wrong, but yet we do them anyway. That is called sin! We all are guilty of it we have been doing it since we were born. Yohanes 3:19 Salahé manungsa kuwi ngéné: Pepadang teka nang jagat kéné, nanging manungsa malah pada seneng marang pepeteng tenimbang marang pepadang, awit klakuané ala. Rum 3:23 Kenèng apa aku kok bisa ngomong ngono para sedulur. Awit kabèh wong wis tiba ing dosa lan jalaran kabèh namung nuruti karepé déwé, Gusti Allah blas ora kétok apiké sangka uripé manungsa. We are all sinners! 2. By that nature we are condemned.
Yohanes 6:40 Kekarepané Gusti Allah Bapakku kuwi ngéné: sapa sing nitèni nèk Aku Anaké lan pretyaya ing Aku bakal nduwèni urip langgeng lan bakal tak tangèkké ing dina kuwi." Yohanes 3:18 "Sapa sing pretyaya marang Dèkné ora bakal disalahké, nanging sapa sing ora gelem pretyaya kuwi wis disalahké, awit ora pretyaya marang jenengé Anaké Gusti Allah sing ora ènèng tunggalé. Yohanes 3:36 Wong sing pretyaya marang Anaké Gusti Allah kuwi nduwèni urip langgeng, sing ora gelem pretyaya ora bakal ngrasakké urip iki, nanging bakal nyangga setrapané Gusti Allah sak terusé." There is a cost for sin! 3. Jesus was in the world and he died for us. Yohanes 14:6 Gusti Yésus terus ngomong: "Aku iki dalané marang Gusti Allah lan Aku sing nduduhké Gusti Allah kuwi sapa lan Aku sing ngekèki urip marang manungsa. Ora ènèng wong bisa mara nang nggoné Gusti Allah Bapakku nèk ora liwat Aku. Yohanes 3:17 Gusti Allah enggoné ngongkon Anaké medun nang jagat kéné ora kongkon nyalahké manungsa, nanging kongkon dadi Juru Slameté manungsa. Yohanes 1:10, 12 Tembung wis teka nang jagat. Nanging senajana jagat iki ènèngé sangka Dèkné, jagat ora nitèni Dèkné. Nanging kabèh wong sing nampa Dèkné lan pretyaya marang Dèkné pada diaku anak karo Gusti Allah. 4. Salvation is a free gift, not by good works. You must take God's word for it, and trust Jesus alone! Salvation is trusting and receiving Jesus Christ as your Savior. It's trusting in the fact that Jesus Christ died on the cross of Calvary to pay for your sins! It's realizing there is absolutely nothing whatsoever you can do to save yourself and completely trusting in Jesus Christ to save you! It's not any church that saves. It's not any baptism, not good works, not sacraments, not repenting, not praying through, not living a good life - IT'S NOT ANYTHING YOU CAN DO! Para Rasul 4:12 Keslametan kuwi tekané namung sangka Gusti Yésus, ora sangka wong liya. Awit nang sak ngisoré langit iki ora ènèng jeneng liyané pawèhé Gusti Allah marang manungsa, sing bisa nylametké awaké déwé."
Efese 2:8-9 Para sedulur, mulané kowé kudu ngerti iki: kowé bisa nampa keslametan kuwi namung jalaran Gusti Allah ngétokké kawelasané marang kowé, sak barengé kowé pretyaya marang Kristus. Tegesé, kuwi pawèhé Gusti Allah lan blas dudu upahé enggonmu nggawé betyik. Dadiné ya ora ènèng wong sing bisa sombong lan ngelem dèkné déwé. Titus 3:5 Saiki awaké déwé wis dislametké. Ora jalaran awaké déwé iki nglakoni betyik apa kepriyé waé, ora, nanging jalaran Dèkné trésna lan melas marang awaké déwé. Gusti Yésus ngedusi awaké déwé lantaran Roh Sutyi. Ya Roh Sutyi iki sing wis nglairké awaké déwé menèh lan nganyarké uripé lan klakuané awaké déwé. 5. You must believe on the Lord and you will have everlasting life! Yohanes 5:24 Gusti Yésus terus ngomong menèh: "Kowé tak omongi sak beneré! Sapa sing ngrungokké tembungku lan pretyaya marang sing ngongkon Aku, wong kuwi nduwèni urip langgeng. Dèkné ora bakal disetrap, awit wis utyul sangka pati lan mlebu ing urip. Yohanes 6:47 Pantyèn tenan. Sapa sing pretyaya marang Aku nduwèni urip langgeng. Yohanes 10:28 Kabèh tak kèki urip langgeng lan ora bakal tiba ing karusakan. Ora ènèng sing bisa ngrebut wedusku sangka tanganku. Yohanes 20:31 Nanging sing ketulis iki nduduhké nèk Gusti Yésus kuwi Kristus Anaké Gusti Allah. Nèk kowé pretyaya marang Dèkné, kowé nduwèni urip langgeng. If you want to accept Jesus Christ as your Savior and receive forgiveness from God, here is prayer you can pray. Saying this prayer or any other prayer will not save you. It is only trusting in Jesus Christ that can provide forgiveness of sins. This prayer is simply a way to express to God your faith in Him and thank Him for providing for your forgiveness.
"Lord, I know that I am a sinner. I know that I deserve the consequences of my sin which is death and hell. However, I am trusting in Jesus Christ as my Savior. I believe that His death and resurrection provided for my forgiveness. I trust in Jesus and Jesus alone as my personal Lord and Savior. Thank you Lord, for saving me and forgiving me! Amen!" If you just prayed that prayer - according to the Word of God - YOU ARE SAVED! HALLELUJAH! You say, but I don't feel any different. Guess what? Your salvation does not depend on your feeling. It ALL depends on doing what God SAID! God said if you receive and trust in Jesus Christ you are saved. Notice it does NOT say you "might" or "could" be saved - but "shall be saved". YOU ARE SAVED! Wujuté nang Kitab ya wis ketulis ngéné: "Sapa waé sing nyebut jenengé Gusti bakal slamet." Rum 10:13 Didn't you just believe on the Lord Jesus Christ? Look at what John 3:36 says! It says you HATH EVERLASTING LIFE! Not "maybe" or "hope so" - BUT HATH - YOU ARE SAVED! Yohanes 3:36 Wong sing pretyaya marang Anaké Gusti Allah kuwi nduwèni urip langgeng, sing ora gelem pretyaya ora bakal ngrasakké urip iki, nanging bakal nyangga setrapané Gusti Allah sak terusé." Juan 3:36 Friend, if you prayed the prayer and received Jesus Christ - YOU ARE SAVED! You did what God said - AND GOD CANNOT LIE!
