Gospel ABC's

A

Admit

Admit to God that you are a sinner. Repent, turning away from your sin.

For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Romans 3:23
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal like in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 6:23 
B

Believe

Believe that Jesus Christ is God’s Son and accept God’s gift of forgiveness from sin.

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. John 3:16
But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8
For you have been saved by grace, through faith, and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. Ephesians 2:8-9

C

Confess

Confess your faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord.

For whoever call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Romans 10:13
If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Romans 10:9-10
