Following Jesus
If you confess with your mouth “Jesus Is Lord” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
Romans 10:9
Who is Jesus?
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
John 3:16
Jesus came to die for our sins.
Jesus Christ is God:
1. Jesus was pre-existent with the Father. - John 1:2
2. Jesus is the Son of God. - John 10:30
3. Jesus was sinless, as only God can be. - 2 Corinthians 5:21
4. Jesus forgives sin, as only God can. - Matthew 9:6
5. Jesus Christ became man. - John 1:14
How to Know God:
1. Realize That You Are a Sinner.
No matter how good of a life we try to live, we still fall miserably short of being a good person. That is because we are all sinners. We all fall short of God's desire for us to be holy. The Bible says, “No one is good – not even one” (Romans 3:10). This is because we cannot become who we are supposed to be without Jesus Christ.
2. Recognize That Jesus Christ Died On The Cross For You.
The Bible tells us, “But God showed His great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners” (Romans 5:8). This is the Good News, that God loves us so much that He sent His only Son to die in our place when we least deserved it.
3. Repent Of Your Sin
The Bible tells is to “repent and be converted” (Acts 3:19). The word repent means to change our direction in life. Instead of running from God, we can run towards Him.
4. Receive Jesus Christ Into Your Life.
Becoming a Christian is not merely believing some creed or going to church on Sunday. It is having Christ Himself take residence in your life and heart. Jesus said, “Behold, I stand at the door (of your life) and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in…” (Revelation 3:20)
Do You Want to Have a Relationship with Christ?
Simply pray this prayer and mean it with your heart.
Dear Lord Jesus, I know I am a sinner. I believe you died for my sins. Right now, I turn from my sins and open the door of my heart and life. I confess you as my personal Lord and Savior. Thank you for saving me. Amen.
