1. Questions To Ask

• Are You Worried About The Future?
• Are you worried about the economy? The cost of living?

Looking For Answers (Peace with God)

• God wants your journey in this life to be one of peace, hope, salvation
• God wants you to have lasting peace that only comes through a relationship with him
• You can have real lasting peace through a relationship with Jesus Christ.
• God loves you and wants you to experience peace and eternal life—abundant and eternal.

2. Start Your 4 Step Journey!

1. Tell them about God’s plan—peace and life.  The Bible says, “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). He has a plan for you.

2. Share our problem—separation from God. Being at peace with God is not automatic. By nature, we are all separated from Him. The Bible says, “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23). God is holy, but we are human and don’t measure up to His perfect standard. We are sinful, and “the wages of sin is death” (Romans 6:23).

3. Talk about God’s remedy—the cross. God’s love bridges the gap of separation between you and Him. When Jesus Christ died on the cross and rose from the grave, He paid the penalty for your sins. The Bible says, “‘He Himself bore our sins’ in His body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; ‘by His wounds you have been healed’” (1 Peter 2:24).

4. Our response—receive Christ. You cross the bridge into God’s family when you accept Christ’s free gift of salvation. The Bible says, “But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God” (John 1:12).

To receive Christ, a person needs to do 4 things:

• Admit you’re a sinner.
• Ask forgiveness and be willing to turn away from your sins.
• Believe that Christ died for you on the cross.
• Receive Christ into your heart and life.

Romans 10:13 says, “Whoever calls upon the name of the Lord will be saved.” Here’s a PRAYER you can pray to receive Christ:

“Dear Lord Jesus, I know I am a sinner, and I ask for your forgiveness. I believe you died for my sins and rose from the dead. I trust and follow you as my Lord and Savior. Guide my life and help me to do your will. In your name, amen.”
