For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith - and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God - not by works, so that no one can boast.

How do I receive Jesus as my Lord and Savior?
The Bible tells us that it is not by our works, but it is by faith in Jesus Christ that we receive our salvation. As followers of Christ we lean on what Jesus did on the Cross for us. He came to earth in the flesh of man, died on the cross for our sins, and rose again on the third day so that we could be saved through Him. All that is required is that we put our trust in Him. To receive salvation, go before God and say this prayer:
Jesus, I believe you are God
I admit that I have fallen short and am a sinner
I believe that you died on the cross as payment for my sins
I receive my salvation from what you did on the cross
If you've gone before God, sincerely putting your trust in Him, you are now saved
and a member of God's family!
