How to Become a Christian 1. Admit that you have sinned. "For all have sinned . . . If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us." Romans 3:23, 1 John 1:8 Your sin separates you from God and leads to death. "God is light, and in him is no darkness at all." 1 John 1:5 "For the wages of sin is death . . ." Romans 6:23 You cannot get rid of your sin on your own. "He saved us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy." Titus 3:5 2. Believe that Jesus Christ is the only one who can save you from your sins. "And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved." Acts 4:12 Jesus Christ, God's Son, led a sinless life, yet chose to be punished in our place. "For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God." 1 Peter 3:18 He died on a cross and was buried. Three days later, God raised Him to life again to prove that death was defeated. "Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures . . . he was buried . . . he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures . . . death no longer has dominion over him." 1 Corinthians 15:3-4, Romans 6:9 God offers to forgive our sins and invites us to spend eternity in Heaven with Him if we accept Christ's sacrifice on our behalf. "Everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name." Acts 10:43 "Whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life. He does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life." John 5:24 3. Turn from your sins and invite Christ into your life. "Repent therefore, and turn again, that your sins may be blotted out." Acts 3:19 "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." 1 John 1:9 "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." Romans 10:9 If you are ready to take this important step, talk to God right now and say something like this: Dear God, I admit that I have sinned. I believe that You sent Your Son, Jesus, to take the punishment I deserve. Then You raised Him to life again, so that I may have eternal life. I turn now from my sins and ask You to forgive me. Please come into my life and be my Savior and Lord. In Jesus' name, amen. What's Next?

A practical, biblical resource designed to help all Christians grow up into the fullness of Christ, this book provides a foundation for those who come into the local church having never been taught about the essentials of Christianity. (Christian Living)

When you received Jesus Christ as your Saviour, you made the most important decision of your life. The Next Step will help you be more effective in your Christian walk. Not meant to take the place of your Bible, it will teach you basic steps to a strong and healthy Christian life. It's an excellent discipleship tool to give to those you lead to the Lord. Chapters include: 1. Birth Of The Bible How the Scriptures came to be, and how Satan has attacked them for almost 1,500 years. 2. Don't Read That Book You won't last long without food, and neither will any Christian last long without the Word of God. This Bible reading program will give you a balanced diet of spiritual food, every day of your life. But it will cost you something! 3. Prayer Do you want to get RESULTS when you pray? Here are the keys to effective prayer, and how to deal with the things Satan uses to stop you. 4. Love Some people are hard to love. Yet for some people, real love is the only way to reach them. 5. The Enemy Every Christian has a mortal enemy. His goal? He wants you dead and in hell. Learn some of his many faces, and how he attacks Christians. He hates us all, because he knows that there is a day coming, when he will be cast into hell. 6. Pitfalls Be careful! Things that can destroy your Christian testimony can be small, or unexpected. 7. Called Out Being a Christian doesn't mean you're better than everyone else. It means you're forgiven. But you can't be the same as everyone else, either. God wants you to live in a way that is different, so you can have the same result as the Christian in this chapter. 8. Warn Them Everyone who hasn't accepted Christ is on his way to hell, just like you were. Now that you have forgiveness, it's up to you warn your friends. If witnessing chokes you up, or you don't think you know enough of the Bible yet, here is a simple plan to help you be a real witness. You can't save anyone ... but Jesus will! Here's an easy way to tell them.
