The means by which we receive this gift is by faith. Faith is the key that unlocks the door to eternal life.
The bible says,
“It is by grace through faith that we are saved…” and “Jesus said, ‘he that believes in me has everlasting life.’” (Eph. 2:8a & John 6:47)
The word believe means to “entrust yourself to the care of another.”
We are trusting in the fact that Jesus took our sin and offers eternal life as a free gift.
The most important decision you can make in your life is choosing to trust in what Christ has done to your sin so that you can cross over from death(separation from God) into life (relationship with God) and it is absolutely guaranteed!
The bible says,
“Very truly I tell you, whoever hears my word and believes Him who sent Me has eternal life and will not be judged but has crossed over from death into life.” (John 5:24)
