A good analogy of what happens when you get saved is in the book With Two Hands by Rebecca Davis.


In Ethiopia, when people get saved, they will raise their hands in the air. One hand stands for renouncing sin and evil, and the other stands for receiving Jesus into your heart. You turn away from your old, sinful self and turn to Jesus to make you clean. You can tell this wonderful message to everyone you see!

It’s simple: God is holy and just. That means He must punish sin. Because we have all broken God’s Law, we are sinners who deserve God’s wrath. God’s punishment for sin is eternal death in Hell. But because He loves you, He became a Man—Jesus-- and died on the Cross to be punished instead of you. Then, Jesus was buried and rose again alive into Heaven! To receive this gift of eternal life, you must repent (turn from your sin) and trust in Jesus’ sacrifice to save you from God’s wrath against your sin.
