You must believe:

• That all men are sinners (Romans 3:23). Since the sin of Adam and Eve in the Garden, all men who enter into this world have sinned against God.
• That since all have sinned, we are separated from God. Since all men are separated from God because of their sin they are under God's wrath (John 3:36) and are going to be punished for their sin by going to hell for eternity when they die (Revelation 20:11-15).
• That God does not want man to go to hell, because hell was originally created for Satan and the angels who followed him (Matthew 25:41). God loves all men, and does not want anyone to die and go to hell (2 Peter 3:9).
• That God made a way so that all men could be saved and escape the judgment of hell. He sent His Son into the world as God in flesh (Jesus is fully God and fully man), to live a perfect life and then willingly die on the cross as a sacrifice for the sin of the world (John 3:16).
• That when Jesus was buried for three days and three nights He did not stay dead, but He rose again on the third day, thus conquering death, hell and the grave (1 Corinthians 15:3, 4).
• That there is no work that you can do to be saved (Ephesians 2:8, 9). Salvation is a gift of God and all we have to do is believe in these truths about Jesus Christ and in Him alone. There is no other way to heaven (John 14:6).

The Bible assures us that if we believe these things then we are saved and have eternal life as a present possession (John 5:24).
