Salvation is free. It has to be received as a gift of God (John 3:16, Romans 3:24-25, Romans 5:15-17, Ephesians 2:8, Revelations 21:6). You cannot buy it (Acts 8:20). You cannot work for it (Ephesians 2:9).
But nothing is free (PAP, Singapore's ruling party). When you got something free, it is because someone has paid the price for you. God has paid the price of your salvation with the blood of His Son. You are redeemed from your sins by His blood (Romans 3:25, 1 Corinthians 6:20, 1 Corinthians 7:23, Hebrews 9:12, 1 John 2:2).
Henceforth, you become the servants of righteousness (Romans 6:18). Other religions ask you to earn salvation by doing good works. Jesus Christ saved you to do good works (Ephesians 2:10).
What happens if you reject this gift? There will be no salvation for you, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which they can be saved (Acts 4:12, Hebrews 2:3, John 14:6, 1 Timothy 2:5).
