How to Become a Christian

Becoming a Christian is the most important decision a person can make.
It begins with a prayer to receive Jesus Christ as your Savior, and continues with a lifelong commmitment to make Jesus the Lord of your life.

1. God Loves You and Created You To Have A Personal Relationship With Him.

"God loved the world so much that He gave His only Son (Jesus) so that anyone who believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life." (John 3:16) "And this is eternal life - to know God and His Son, Jesus Christ." (John 17:3) You were created to have a meaningful relationship with God, but sin prevents this from happening.

2. Our Sin Prevents Us From Having A Personal Relationship With God.

"Knowing what is right to do and then not doing it is a sin." (James 4:17) "All have sinned and fallen short of God's glorious ideal." (Romans 3:23) "Your sins have cut you off from God." (Isaiah 59:2) God loves you but your sin prevents a relationship with Him.

3. Through Jesus Christ, And Only Jesus Christ, You Can Have A Personal Relationship With God.

"I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one can come to God except through Me." (John 14:6) "Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name by which we must be saved." (Acts 4:12) Jesus is the only One who can reunite you with God.

4. You Can Establish A Relationship With God By Asking Jesus To Be Your Lord and Savior.

"To all who received Jesus, He gave the right to become children of God. All they needed to do was trust Him to save them." (John 1:12)

You Can become a Christian by saying a prayer similar to this:

"God, I recognize that I am a sinner who is in need of Your forgiveness
Thank you for sending your Son, Jesus Christ, to die as the punishment for my sins.
I now receive Jesus as my Lord and Savior and ask You to forgive me of my sins.
Please help me to be obedient and committed to You for the rest of my life.
Amen."
