How to become a Christian...
An Open Invitation To Christianity |
Overflowing Life is only possible when you are connected on a personal level, to Jesus Christ the Source of Life.
Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. (John 14:6)
This possibility is a gift from God, not a result of a person's good behaviour or good works.
For
by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own
doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may
boast. (Ephesians 2:8 & 9)
God had to help us, because on our own we can not:
for
all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, Romans 3:24 and are
justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in
Christ Jesus, whom God put forward as a propitiation by his blood, to
be received by faith. (Romans 3:23-25)
This is because God loves you so much
Romans 5:8 but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
Therefore, you can also connect to Jesus Christ at any time and place:
because,
if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your
heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with
the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one
confesses and is saved. For the Scripture says, "Everyone who believes in him will not be put to shame."
For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; the same Lord is
Lord of all, bestowing his riches on all who call on him. For "everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." (Romans 10:9-13)
If
you are willing to commit your life to Jesus now, please read the words
(prayer) like you are talking to Jesus, with all your heart and you
will be saved:
Lord
Jesus, I thank you for dying for me at the cross. I believe that you
are the Lord and Saviour. Today I open my heart and invite you in my
life. Come and save me, forgive me of my sins and make me a new person.
Fill me with your Holy Spirit. From today, I choose to live for you.
Teach me your ways, Lord. By faith I am saved, according to your word.
I thank you Jesus for saving me. Amen.
If
you have prayed this prayer for the first time or you are re-committing
your life to Jesus, please send e-mail and let us know. We will be
happy to help you grow in your new faith by praying for you and sending
you useful material to read. Meanwhile, click here to understand the assurance of your salvation. | |
