The Steps By Which (Salvation) Is Received

The steps by which (salvation) is received:

1. Conviction of sin.  We must first see our need and our danger before we can be saved.  The Holy Ghost brings this to our heart and conscience.  ...
2. There must be next an apprehension of Jesus as our Saviour...  It will not do merely to feel and confess your guilt.  What is needed is to get the eye on Jesus. 
3. Salvation comes by repentance.  There must be a turning from sin...
4. Salvation comes by coming to Jesus... There must be a turning to Jesus as well as a turning from sin.
-- A.B. Simpson, The Four-fold Gospel
