15.  The Church is commanded to seek the Salvation of the Lost and to Disciple those who accept Christ as Lord and Savior.

SALVATION

Salvation is required for anyone to be able to live eternally in the presence and love of God.  All have sinned and come short of the glory of God and therefore have the need of a Savior.  The Bible teaches that God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son to die for all those who are in it.  In doing so, He provided the free gift of Salvation to whosoever would receive Him as Lord and Savior.  The Bible teaches that each one of us must turn from our sin and trust Jesus as our Lord in order to be saved.  John 1:12 tells us that God gives the power to become a son of God to all who receive Him.  The word receive in the original Greek language literally means to put your faith and trust in Jesus and to give yourself to Him.  It is a simple concept, but it requires a sincere and humble heart to do so.
