What does a person have to do to receive the gift of eternal life?

Salvation comes only through Jesus, and the Bible outlines the steps to receive it: hear the gospel, believe, repent, confess, and be baptized (Mark 16:16; Acts 2:38). The book of Acts records examples of conversion following this pattern, including the Day of Pentecost, the Ethiopian eunuch, Saul (Paul), and the Philippian jailer. Obedience to Jesus' teachings in the Great Commission is essential for salvation (Hebrews 5:9).
