Becoming a Christ-Follower

1. Know that God loves you.
Gods love is a real kind of love that does something wonderful for us. When God saw man's hopeless, desperate sinful condition, he decided to help man. He lovingly gave His only Son to die and be crucified for us on Calvary. Even though Jesus was innocent, He paid the price for our salvation. John 3:16 "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." 

2. Know that all have sinned.
Everyone has committed at least one sin and that makes us all sinners. We all stand guilty before God. Rom 3:23 "for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God," 

3. Repent for your sins.
Jesus often started his sermons with the theme of repentance. 

4. Know that Jesus Christ is the only way.
There are people that teach that there are different ways to God and Heaven. This is not true. Jesus said that He is the only way. John 14:6 "Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." Jesus is the only bridge between God and man. 

5. Receive Jesus Christ as your Savior today.
By inviting Jesus to come into your life today, all your sins will be forgiven, because Jesus will cleanse you from all sin with His precious Blood. God the Father will accept you as His own. God brings salvation and everlasting life. Spiritual growth is then developed by a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. 

Please make this decision now and pray this prayer:
Dear Jesus, I invite you to come into my life right now. Please forgive all my sins and cleanse me with your precious Blood. I accept you as my Lord and Savior. Dear Jesus reveal Yourself to me, and become real in my life from this moment. Write my name in the Book of Life and give me life everlasting. I ask this in Your wonderful Name Jesus, Amen. 
 
If you just prayed this prayer, share your experience with someone and find a Bible-believing church to attend regularly.
