FOUR SPIRITUAL LAWS
(including "The Romans Road  to Eternal Life)

1) God loves you and has a wonderful plan for your life. "…I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.  (John 10:10; 3:16 N.I.V.)

2)  All people have put a barrier between themselves and God due to their desire to go their own way (rebellion - sin) instead of God's way. Until that barrier is removed, we cannot experience God's wonderful plan for our lives. "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.  (Romans 3:23)

3) Jesus Christ is THE ONLY ONE who can remove this barrier of sin/rebellion. "But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.  (Romans 5:8) "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.  (John 14:6) "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Jesus Christ our Lord.  (Romans 6:23) "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith - and not this from yourselves, it is the gift of God - not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.  (Ephesians 2:8-10)

4) Jesus does not remove this barrier of sin/rebellion until we personally INVITE / RECEIVE Him into our hearts. "Yet to all who received Him, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God  (John 1:12). "Here I Am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in…  (Revelation 3:20) "That if you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord', and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. As the Scripture says, 'Anyone who trusts in Him will never be put to shame'.  (Romans 10:9-10)
