How to Become a Christian

ADMIT your sinful ways and desire to turn from them to be delivered from the judgment they bring.

"...there is none righteous, not even one" - Romans 3:10

"For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" - Romans 3:23

"Repent therefore and return, that your sins may be wiped away, in order that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord." - Acts 3:19

ACKNOWLEDGE what Christ did for you in His death and resurrection.

"But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." - Romans 5:8

"Jesus said ..., 'I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in Me shall live even if he dies.'" - John 11:25

"For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not as a result of works, that no one should boast." - Ephesians 2:8-9

ACT on Jesus Christ's rightful claim as Lord of your life.

"But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name." - John 1:12

"... if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved." - Romans 10:9

"... at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, ... and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." - Philippians 2:10-11
