Steps to Heaven
Step One
Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow... (Isaiah 1:18)
Understand that God loves you and wants you to spend eternity in heaven with Him.
John 3:16 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.
1 Timothy 2:4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
Step Two
Realize that sin causes all to come under God's judgment and prevents us from spending eternity in Heaven with God.
Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Step Three
Realize that Jesus Christ died and rose again to pay the penalty for your sins.
Romans 5:8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
Ephesians 1:6-7 To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved. In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;
Step Four
Pray and claim God's gracious gift of eternal life in heaven by confessing your sins to God and professing your trust and faith in Christ's finished work of redemption.
John 3:36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.
Romans 10:9 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.
