Before everything else
The most important thing on this site is not software. It is this — the good news that Jesus Christ saves. Here it is in the Bible's own words, with nothing added but a little plain explanation. Read it slowly. Print it. Share it.
This is where everything begins: not with religion, but with the love of God for you personally.
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
— John 3:16 (KJV)
Sin is not only the big things; it is every way we fall short of God's holiness. It separates us from Him, and its wage is death. None of us can fix that from our side.
“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;”
— Romans 3:23 (KJV)
“For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”
— Romans 6:23 (KJV)
This is the gospel itself — a real event, in history. The Son of God took our sins to the cross, was buried, and rose bodily on the third day.
“For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:”
— 1 Corinthians 15:3–4 (KJV)
Not by earning it. Salvation is received by faith — confessing Jesus as Lord and believing that God raised Him from the dead.
“That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.”
— Romans 10:9 (KJV)
“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.”
— Ephesians 2:8–9 (KJV)
If you want to turn to Jesus now, you can tell Him so. You could pray like this:
“Lord Jesus, I know I have sinned against You. I believe You died on the cross for my sins and rose from the dead. Forgive me, Lord. I turn from my sin and trust You alone. Be my Lord and Savior. Thank You for Your gift of everlasting life. Amen.”
The words themselves are not magic — God looks at the heart. Prayed honestly, this is a real turning to the living Lord, and He hears.
If you have trusted Jesus, a new life has begun. Here is how to keep walking:
Antes que todo lo demás
Lo más importante de este sitio no es el software. Es esto — la buena noticia de que Jesucristo salva. Aquí está en las palabras de la Biblia misma, sin nada añadido salvo un poco de explicación sencilla. Léela despacio. Imprímela. Compártela.
Aquí comienza todo: no con religión, sino con el amor de Dios por ti personalmente.
“Porque de tal manera amó Dios al mundo, que ha dado á su Hijo unigénito, para que todo aquel que en él cree, no se pierda, mas tenga vida eterna.”
— Juan 3:16 (RVR 1909)
El pecado no es solo lo grande; es cada manera en que quedamos cortos de la santidad de Dios. Nos separa de Él, y su paga es muerte. Nadie puede arreglar eso por su propia cuenta.
“Por cuanto todos pecaron, y están destituídos de la gloria de Dios;”
— Romanos 3:23 (RVR 1909)
“Porque la paga del pecado es muerte: mas la dádiva de Dios es vida eterna en Cristo Jesús Señor nuestro.”
— Romanos 6:23 (RVR 1909)
Este es el evangelio mismo — un hecho real, en la historia. El Hijo de Dios llevó nuestros pecados a la cruz, fue sepultado, y resucitó corporalmente al tercer día.
“Porque primeramente os he enseñado lo que asimismo recibí: Que Cristo fué muerto por nuestros pecados conforme á las Escrituras; Y que fué sepultado, y que resucitó al tercer día, conforme á las Escrituras;”
— 1 Corintios 15:3–4 (RVR 1909)
No se gana. La salvación se recibe por fe — confesando a Jesús como Señor y creyendo que Dios le levantó de los muertos.
“Que si confesares con tu boca al Señor Jesús, y creyeres en tu corazón que Dios le levantó de los muertos, serás salvo.”
— Romanos 10:9 (RVR 1909)
“Porque por gracia sois salvos por la fe; y esto no de vosotros, pues es don de Dios: No por obras, para que nadie se gloríe.”
— Efesios 2:8–9 (RVR 1909)
Si quieres volverte a Jesús ahora, puedes decírselo. Podrías orar así:
“Señor Jesús, sé que he pecado contra Ti. Creo que moriste en la cruz por mis pecados y que resucitaste de entre los muertos. Perdóname, Señor. Me aparto de mi pecado y confío solamente en Ti. Sé mi Señor y Salvador. Gracias por Tu regalo de vida eterna. Amén.”
Las palabras en sí no son mágicas — Dios mira el corazón. Orada con sinceridad, es un volverse de verdad al Señor vivo, y Él escucha.
Si has confiado en Jesús, una vida nueva ha comenzado. Así puedes seguir caminando:
The good news
The Bible says that every one of us has sinned and needs reconciliation with God. Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died on the cross for our sins, was buried, and rose bodily from the dead on the third day. He is Lord, and eternal life is God's gift to everyone who repents and believes in Him—not a reward we earn.
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
— John 3:16 (KJV)
