Romans 3:10 "As it is written, there is none righteous, no, not one."
Romans 3:23 "For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God."

Key #2:
You must believe what God's Word says about the consequences of your sin if you remain in
your present condition and reject His Son, Jesus Christ. (John 8:24)
Romans 6:23a "For the wages (payment) of sin is death..."
This death is described in the Bible as the second death or the lake of fire--eternal separation
from God.
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." Read More...

Key #3:
You must believe that Jesus Christ, God's only begotten Son, lovingly paid your sin debt
through his sacrificial death and the shedding of His precious blood at Calvary on His cross.
John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth on him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
Romans 5:8 "But God commendeth (proved) his love toward us, in that, while
we were yet sinners, Christ died for us."
God allowed his Son, Jesus Christ, to suffer and die in our place to pay the price of death
that we owe.
II Corinthians 5:21 "For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin;
that we might be made the righteousness of God in him." Read More...

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 5:24 "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth
on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation;
but is passed from death unto life." Read More...
