All too often God's plan of salvation is presented in a manner that seems too complex, but God never intended it to be that way.
God's plan of salvation is simple enough for everyone to understand and is as easy as ABC.
Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us. Titus 3:5
Admit
Admit that you are a sinner, and in need of salvation from sin. All persons need salvation. Each of us has a problem the Bible calls sin. Sin is a refusal to acknowledge God's authority over our lives.
Romans 3:10 'As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:'
Romans 3:23 'For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;'
Romans 6: 23 'For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.'
Acts 3:19 'Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord;'

Believe
Believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and that He is the only way to obtain salvation – to get to heaven. Although we have done nothing to deserve His love and salvation, God wants to save us.
Romans 5:8 'But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.'

John 14:6 'Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.'
