Becoming a Christian
1. God loves you and offers a wonderful plan for your life.
God’s Love– “God so loved the world that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.” (John 3:16)
God’s Plan: “I came that they might have life, and have it abundantly.” (John 10:10)
2. Man is sinful and separated from God.
“All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” (Romans 3:23),
“The wages of sin is death.” (Romans 6:23)
3. Jesus Christ is God’s only provision for our sins. Through Jesus Christ you can know and experience God’s love and plan for your life.
“God demonstrates His love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” (Romans 5:8),
“Jesus said, I am the way, and the truth, and the life; No one comes to the Father but through me.” (John 14:6)
4. We must individually receive Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord; then you can know and experience God’s love and plan for your lives.
“By grace you have been saved through faith…it is the gift of God; not as a result of works that no one should boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9),
“As many as received Him, to them He have the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name.” (John 1:12)
By praying this prayer right now, you can receive Jesus Christ as Savior: “Lord Jesus, I need you. Thank you for dying on the cross for my sins. I open my heart and receive you as my Savior and Lord. I confess my sin and accept your forgiveness. I give you control of my life in thankfulness for what you did for me. Amen.
Congratulations! Now begin the great adventure for which God created you!
