Becoming a Christian

We believe that Jesus Christ is the only way to salvation and eternal life. He became the ultimate sacrifice on the cross – for you and me. He conquered death, so that we might live forever.

If you’d like to invite Jesus into your life, establish a relationship with him, and have eternal life:

ADMIT you are a sinner

We are all separated from God by our sin. Every single one of us. We have all committed some type of sin – lying, cheating, stealing, just to name a few.

“There is no one righteous, not even one … for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” Romans 3:10,23. (See Romans 5:8; 6:23.)

ASK God’s forgiveness

Sin separates us from God, and we need to ask him for forgiveness.

“Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” Romans 10:13

BELIEVE in Jesus

But it is only through Jesus Christ that forgiveness for our sins is possible. When he shed his blood and died for us on the cross, he became the sacrifice for our sins. Because he did this, our sins have been forgiven and we can have a relationship with God. Put your trust in Him as your only hope of salvation.

“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 (See John 14:6.)

BECOME a child of God by receiving Christ.

You become a child of God when you decide to receive Christ and all that he has done for you on the cross.

“To all who receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God.” John 1:12 (See Revelation 3:20.)

CONFESS that Jesus is your Lord.

Confess that you have received Jesus Christ and that he has paid the ultimate price for you. Believe that he has done this for you.

“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 (See verse 10.)
