This article is not a step by step process that you can follow in order to be saved. Instead it attempts to be a helpful tool for all exploring their own salvation. We need to begin with the focus of all Christians. Scripture says that salvation is found in the person and work of Jesus Christ. It is not what you believe, but who you believe in that is most important to your salvation. Believing insomething is different from believing about something. You know a great deal about the work you do, but do you believe in the work you do. Are you enthused about it, do you trust in what you do as beneficial and good. Being saved is living a life that believes in Jesus, that is a life that is entusiastic about Jesus. This new life begins by accepting Jesus into your life and accepting what He has

You know a great deal about the work you do, but do you believe in the work you do. Are you enthused about it, do you trust in what you do as beneficial and good. Being saved is living a life that believes in Jesus, that is a life that is entusiastic about Jesus. This new life begins by accepting Jesus into your life and accepting what He has done for you in His death, resurrection and ascention. The Gospel of John is a good place to find out both who Jesus is and many examples of what it is to simply believe in Him. Many of the examples reflect the simple recieving of a gift. John talks in terms of drinking "living water", or eating the "bread of life." Things God provides in Jesus. These are simple acts of quenching thirst or satisfying our need for food that point to our need to satisfy our spiritual hunger or thirst. This is done by seeing Jesus, learning about Jesus, hearing His words and acknoledging that He is who He says He is. As you learn of Him a trust will grow in your heart and mind that He is God and that in Him you will find eternal life. God will draw you to His Son and by God's grace through your faith your trusting in Him, your beieving in Him, your enthusiasm for Him will grow and you will be saved.
