To enter the Kingdom of God, you must be born again:

John 3:1-8 (KJV) - There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews: The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him. Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born? Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.

Believe on the Lord Jesus
(John 1:12, John 3:14-18, John 5:24, John 3:36, John 6:35, John 6:47, John 12:46; Acts 10:43; Acts 11:17-18, Acts 16:1-34; Romans 9:33, Romans 10:9-10; 1 Peter 2:6; 1 John 5:5-13). The belief Jesus was speaking of is that which belongs to salvation...that He is the Son of God, the Christ that died for the sins of the world, which God raised from the dead, and has come to save the world from sin, as He sits on the right hand of God awaiting for the time when His enemies will be made His footstool - making intercession (prayer) for us (Psalm 110; Romans 6:3-4, Romans 10:9-10; 1 Corinthians 15:20-28; 2 Corinthians 5:17-21; Ephesians 2:1-9; Colossians 1:15-22; 1 Timothy 2:3-4; Hebrews 2:17, Hebrews 7:22-27; 1 John 2:1-2).

Belief in Jesus is a consistent demonstration of faith through a person's actions:

James 2:17-24 (KJV) - Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works. Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect? And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God. Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.

Everyone who believes in Jesus will be saved from the curse of sin and death.

Acts 2:38-39 (KJV) - Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, [even] as many as the Lord our God shall call.

Repent of your sins
(Matthew 4:17; Mark 1:14-15; Luke 13:3; Acts 3:19-21, 5:31, 17:30; 2 Corinthians 7:10). Repentance is a turning away from your sinful nature, behavior, and actions - to change one’s mind for better, to heartily to amend with abhorrence one’s past sins. Abhorrence means to have a feeling of extreme repugnance or aversion; utter loathing; abomination; something or someone extremely repugnant or loathsome. This is the condition one must have toward their life of sin, not feeling bad for doing wrong. It is the Lord's desire that no one should perish, but that all would come to repentance (2 Peter 3:9).

Repent because you need to be saved from your sins, not because you want a better earthly life.

Be Baptized
(Matthew 28:18-20; John 3:3-7; Acts 1:5; Romans 6:1-4; 1 Corinthians 6:9-11; Galatians 3:27). Baptism is a commandment of Jesus (Matthew 28:18-20; Mark 16:16). It is the baptism that washes away your sins and allows you to enter the kingdom of God (John 3:1-8; Acts 22:3-16; 1 Peter 3:21). We are buried with Him into death; and as He was raised from the dead, we should walk in the newness of life, knowing we too will be raised with Him (Acts 4:12; Romans 6:1-6; Colossians 2:12). (Please read Being Born Again for additional information.)

Receive the gift of the Holy Spirit
(Luke 11:13; John 3:1-8, 4:14, 7:38-39, 14:15-17, 16:7-14; Acts 2:1-4, 38-39; 10:44-48, 19:1-6; Ephesians 1:10-14; Galatians 3:14; 1 Corinthians 12:13). Receipt of the Holy Spirit is a born again 'experience' given to all who repent and are baptized (John 3:3-8; Acts 2:38). The receipt of the Holy Spirit is similar to that of Jesus after being baptized by John (Matthew 3:13-17; Mark 1:9-11; Luke 3:21-22; John 1:32-34). The Scriptures also declare that those who ask, believe, and obey Jesus' commandments will receive the Holy Spirit (Luke 11:13; John 7:37-39, John 14:15-16; Acts 5:32; Ephesians 1:10-14). God has declared that He would pour out His Spirit upon all flesh (Joel 2:28-32; Acts 2:17). This outpouring of the Spirit would come through Jesus, as He is the One declared to baptize with the Holy Spirit and with fire (Matthew 3:11; John 1:29-33). The Holy Spirit is given as a guarantee (or deposit) of our inheritance of eternal life, which is to come (Ephesians 1:10-14). Through the Holy Spirit, we will receive a New Covenant that will be in our hearts AND He will live in us (Jeremiah 31:31-34; Ezekiel 36:27; John 14:16-18). We will be guided into all truth to help us live a righteous, faithful, and obedient life; producing His fruit among the world (Romans 8:26-27; 1 Corinthians 2:12; Galatians 5:22-25; Ephesians 5:18). In His fullness and power, the Holy Spirit helps us live as bold witnesses for God (Luke 4:1-14, 24:49; Acts 1:1-8), where we are also given other 'gifts' as the Lord wills to accomplish His purposes (1 Corinthians 12:1-11).
