TO CAST YOUR VOTE FOLLOW THESE S

TO CAST YOUR VOTE FOLLOW THESE STEPS

1. Admit you have sinned.
"For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God" (Romans 3:23)
"God be merciful to me a sinner." (Luke 18:13)

2. "Except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish." (Luke 13:3)

3. Confess - admit these mistakes
"If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." (1 John 1:9)
"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)

4. Forsake - try your very best not to do them again.
"Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; and let him return unto the Lord...for He will abundantly pardon." (Isaiah 55:7)

5. Believe - know Jesus died for you
"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)
"He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned." (Mark 16:16)

6. Receive - ask Him to be a part of your life
"He came unto His own, and His own received him not. But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to those that believe on His name." (John 1:11, 12)

The best way to start each day is to have a daily chat with the Lord. It doesn't have to be fancy - just from the heart. It is nice to acknowledge all the blessings we are given rather than just asking for favors or answers. Sometimes it seems our prayers go unanswered. We may not always be given what we want, but what we need.

THE TEN COMMANDMENTS

1. Thou shalt have no other gods before me. (Exodus 20:3)

2. Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me. (Exodus 20:4-5)

3. Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain. (Exodus 20:7)

4. Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the Sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: (Exodus 20:8-10)

5. Honor thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee. (Exodus 20:12)

6. Thou shalt not kill. (Exodus 20:13)

7. Thou shalt not commit adultery. (Exodus 20:14)

8. Thou shalt not steal. (Exodus 20:15)

9. Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor. (Exodus 20:16)

10. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbor's. (Exodus 20:17)

SPECIAL COMMANDMENTS

Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. (Matthew 22:37-38)

And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets. (Matthew 22:39-40)
