So how do I become a Christian?
The short answer is to repent and believe the Gospel. But what is repentance? What is the Gospel?
The Gospel, means “Good News” and it is the most important message that you will ever hear in your entire life.
First the bad news…
The Bible tells us that we all have sinned and fallen short of what God made us to be (Romans 3:23). God’s perfect justice means that our sin must be judged and the penalty is death and separation from God (Romans 6:32; Isaiah 59:2).
God in His love made a way to save us
God in his perfect love sent his Son so we could be forgiven and go from death to eternal life with Him (John 3:16-21).
This is why we need Jesus
Jesus came down to be born as one of us (John 1:1-5, 14) and died on the cross to take our place and the punishment for our sin (1 Peter 3:18). He rose again after 3 days conquering our sin on the cross and death at his Resurrection (1 Corinthians 15:21-22).
We have to turn and give our life to Jesus as King
He invites us to repent of (turn away from) our sin and believe the Gospel (Mark 1:15). If we believe what He did for us and that He rose again, we can give our life to him today as our Lord (the one who rules our life) and Savior (the one who saves our life) (Romans 10:9).
Saved by His grace, not our works
We can know we are saved and have eternal life not because we deserve it but because of God’s mercy and love (Ephesians 2:4-9).
You will need a church family to grow
If you read all of that above and have chosen to give your life to the Lord, please tell us so we can help you grow as a Christian and experience all that God has for you in this wonderful new life in Christ. 🙂
