let me tell you about Jesus

1. Understand that You Cannot Save Yourself on Your Own.
The first step to salvation is acknowledging that you cannot save yourself by your own effort. All humans have sinned, so no one is capable of saving themselves. Everyone is meant to pay for the wages of sin, which is death alone (Romans 6:23).
2. Know that Good Works Cannot Save You.
Some religions will emphasize the need to work for salvation by displaying penitence, good works, and donations to the church. However, the Bible tells us that salvation is not our own doing—not a result of works—but instead, it is a GIFT of God acquired through faith alone.
3. Realize that You Cannot Perfectly Obey God’s Commandments.
Do you know any person who has never sinned all their life? If only humans could perfectly obey God’s commands and never sin, then we would not need salvation since we would not have to suffer eternal punishment. However, no one is capable of doing that. That is why all humans need salvation from the wrath of God.
True Repentance
4. Acknowledge that You are a Sinner.
If you want to be saved, you must admit you are a sinner. Accept that you can never save yourself because you deserve punishment for your sins in this lifetime. Admit that no matter how much you want to be a righteous person, you are not capable of going through a day without any single sin.
