As the Lord is a loving father so he made a plan of salvation for his children before he created this earth. The Bible tells us that God’s plan of salvation centers on the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
God created humans to have a loving relationship with Him. However, sin entered the world through the disobedience of Adam and Eve, causing a separation between God and humanity.
To fill this gap, God came in the form of Jesus Christ, to live a perfect, sinless life and die on the cross as a sacrifice for humanity’s sins. Through his death and resurrection, Jesus made it possible for humanity to be reconciled to God.
To be saved, a person must repent of his sins and believe in Jesus Christ as his Savior and Lord. When a sinner repents for his sin, God starts to work in his life and forgives his sins, and makes him a new creation in Jesus Christ.
Salvation is a free gift of God’s grace, meaning it cannot be earned through good works or personal merit. It is available to all who believe and accept Jesus Christ as their Savior. God’s plan of salvation is very simple that requires faith in Jesus Christ and obedience to the Lord till death.
