Becoming A Christian
To become a Christian a person must first realize that he or she is "lost" totally estranged from God, seperated from God by a sinful nature. Read Roman 3:23 "For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God."
|
A person alone can not reconcile the lost relationship bewteen himself or herself and God. To provide a remedy, God sent his one and only Son, Jesus, to live the perfect life God demands. Roman 6:23 "For the wages of sin is death,but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord."
|
Although humanity through sin has seperated itself from God, the sacrifice
of Jesus on the cross bridged that gap. Romans 5:8 "But God demonstrates
his own love for us in this; While we were still sinners Christ died for us."
|
All that God asks is that a man or woman repent of his or her sins, turn from them and accept the sacrafice Christ made on the cross for those sins. Romans 10:9 "That if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in you heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved."
|
God promises in the Bible that anyone who accepts Christ as Savior
shall be saved. Romans 10:13 "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord
will be saved." A person who accepts Christ as Savior should follow him
in believer's baptism by immersion in water and join the fellowship of a church
of like minded believers. Matthew 28:19 "Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit."
