HOW CAN I HAVE ETERNAL LIFE?
In the Gospel of John, Jesus said, "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son (Jesus), that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life". (John 3:16)
It is important to know that Jesus will not force Himself into our lives. All we must do to know Him is to freely invite Him into our hearts and lives.
If you want to know Jesus and obtain the unperishable hope of eternal life, here are three easy steps:
Step 1: Acknowledge
You must acknowledge that you have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. (Romans 3:23)
The wages of our sin is death, and not only physical death, but eternity separated from God. (Romans 6:23a)
Acknowledge that you are a sinner by nature in desperate need of a Savior.
Step 2: Believe
You must believe in your heart that Jesus is who He says He is and declare Him as your Lord and Savior.
You must confess your sins before God, repent from your sins, and turn to God. (1 John 1:9)
By placing your faith in Jesus Christ, you are now at peace with God. (Romans 5:1)
Step 3: Confess
Confess that Jesus is your Lord and Savior before men!
Jesus said, "Whoever confesses Me before men, him I will also confess before My Father who is in Heaven. But whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father who is in Heaven".
WHAT MUST YOU DO TO BE SAVED?
"If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." - Romans 10:9-10
IF YOU WANT TO INVITE JESUS INTO YOUR LIFE AND MAKE HIM YOUR LORD AND SAVIOR
PLEASE FOLLOW IN THIS PRAYER:
"Jesus, I understand that I have sinned and my sin has separated me from You. I believe You that You came to save sinners like me. I want to turn from my sin and live for You, Jesus. Please forgive me of all my sin against You and others. I want You to be my Lord and Savior of my life. Thank You for the promise of eternal life that I have received from You. I confess right now that you Jesus, are my Lord and Savior. Amen"

A MESSAGE FROM PASTOR JON
On behalf of Calvary Gulf Coast located in Biloxi, Mississippi, I'm excited to greet you and thank you for taking your time to visit us. We are a Christ-centered church who exhibits the love of God as we meet. The world will know we are His disciples by our love. We are all sinners saved by the great grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. Because of the power of the Holy Spirit, we are not what we were before Jesus, but we are not yet completed either. We are growing in grace together day by day.
If you are visiting us for the first time or maybe even looking for a church you can call home, I want to personally invite you to come visit us. We always make room to serve one more. Jesus said, those that desire to be great must be a servant of all. Jesus is our model for ministry at Calvary Gulf Coast. We are not here to be served but to serve! The question of how do I become a member of Calvary Gulf Coast? You just come, remain coming, you're a member, it's that easy. Everyone needs to be involved in a local church if at all possible. Calvary Gulf Coast is a great one. You will not find better people anywhere else. We have room for you.
As pastor of Calvary Gulf Coast, I am fully aware of the many abuses that have wounded and destroyed people's lives in the name of religion. People come in with a heavy broken heart. It's my desire to begin the healing process, turn the page to a brighter day for you, and strengthen what has been weakened. God's love, God's word, & God's Spirit, has an amazing way of doing just that. You will be loved here! You will matter to God and others here! You can make a positive difference here! Maybe we are not the church for you, but then again, maybe we are! I hope to see you at one of our services and come say hello.
May God richly bless you in His grace and love,
Pastor Jon Holaday
