Becoming a Christian

God's Word tells of His great love for us. His will, is that every individual turn from sin, and accept His free gift of salvation, granted to us by grace (Ephesians 2:8, 9). As we come to the knowledge that Jesus Christ is God's Saving Grace, our faith leads to this response:

  • We believe that Jesus is the Christ; the Son of the Living God. (Mark 16:16; John 20:31; Acts 16:31)
  • We repent our sins and turn to Jesus. (Matthew 4:17; Mark 2:17; Acts 2:37, 38; 3:19; 17:30)
  • We acknowledge (confess) Jesus before men. (Matthew 10:32, 33; Romans 10:9; Philippians 2:10, 11)
  • We are baptized by immersion into Jesus for the remission of sins and the gift of the Holy Spirit. (Acts 2:38; 8:36-39; 22:16; Romans 6:4; Colossians 2:12)
  • We rise to walk in a faithful and righteous life with Christ. (I Peter 1:3-9; 2:1-3; Revelation 2:10)

Becoming a Part of Our Family
