In the most simple way it can be described is the following:
1. First of all: "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God..." Rom.3:23a. In other words, we are all separated from God, until...
2. "...and are justified freely by His grace, through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus." Rom.3:23b.
"God presented Him as a sacrifice of atonement through faith in His blood..." Rom.3:26a. In other words, God gave up His Son to shed His blood and die, a sacrificial death, in our place, paying our sin debts in full, past, present and future, for everyone who believes in Him.
3. "For God so loved the world He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life." Jn.3:16.
4. "That if you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved." Rom.10:9-10.
5. "And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the Gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you were marked in Him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession - to the glory of His name." Eph.1:13-14.
6. "For those God foreknew He also predestined to be conformed to the likeness of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brothers. And those He predestined, He also called; those He called, He also justified; those He justified, He also glorified." Rom.8:29-30.
7. The Scriptures also tell us the following: "Whoever believes in Him [Jesus] is not condemned, but whoever does not believe in Him, is condemned already." Jn.3:18. Until they confess and believe anytime during their lifetime, as addressed above.
8. Upon believing/receiving Jesus as our Lord and Savior, He gives/baptizes us with the Holy Spirit, immediately. Mt.3:11. Providing us with His promise of our salvation and eternal life. Jn.3:16. Then, as Peter said, "Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ, for the forgiveness of your sins." Acts 2:38.
God bless!
