My brother/sister, God loves you
Read on to discover how you can become a Christian.
Your heart tends to run from God and rebel against Him. The Bible calls this "sin." Romans 3:23 says, "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God."
Yet God loves you and wants to save you from sin, to offer you a new life of hope. John 10:10 says, "I have come that they may have life and have it in abundance."
To give you this gift of salvation, God made a way through His Son, Jesus Christ. Romans 5:8 says, "But God demonstrates His own love for us in that while we were still sinners Christ died for us!"
You receive this gift by faith alone. Ephesians 2:8 says, "For by grace you are saved, through faith, and this not from yourselves; it is God's gift-not from works, so that no one can boast."
Faith is a decision of your heart demonstrated by the actions of your life. Romans 10:9 says, "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."
Pray this prayer from your heart "Almighty God in heaven, I pray and confess all my sins to You. I repent of all of them. I confess Jesus Christ as Lord and receive Him as my Lord and Saviour. I thank You for forgiving all my sins and making me Your own in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen."
