Growing in God (GiG) -- How to begin a relationship with Jesus Christ
How to begin your relationship with Jesus Christ

God's Plan of Salvation

Becoming a Christian is the most important decision you can make. This decision does not only determine where you will spend eternity, but it will determine every aspect of your life..

All People Have Sinned Against God

The Bible says, "All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" (Romans 3:23). The word sin means to miss a target by falling short of that target. Sin is the failure of a person to live the life which God has planned for him to live. Everyone has sinned, it is universal.

The Price of Sin Is High

The Bible says, "the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." (Romans 6:23). The person who lives without God in this life will pay the awful price of an eternity separated from God. The Bible calls this place of separation hell. Hell was never meant to be the eternal home of mankind, but God could not allow rebellious people to enter into heaven. Heaven is the eternal dwelling of God's people, and it is a place where God lives in perfect harmony with His people.

God Loves us in Spite of Our Sin

The Bible says, "But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." (Romans 5:8). Because of the righteousness of God, man must pay the penalty for sin, or someone who is acceptable to God must pay the penalty. The death of Jesus is the greatest demonstration of the love of God for sinners. It is a great love for someone to die in place of a loved one. But Jesus died for those in rebellion.

Repent, Turn Toward God, and Have Your Sins Completely Taken Away

The Bible says, "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord;" (Acts 3:19). The word repent means to turn around and go in a different direction. It means a change of mind and life toward God. If you are willing to turn to God, then God will restore you to childhood purity. Jesus described this experience as the "new birth." Your part is to confess your sin, and God's part is to forgive and restore.

By Grace You Receive His Free Gift (Eternal Life) Through Faith Which is Also from God

The Bible says, "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God." (Ephesians 2:8). The word grace refers to the kindness and love of God in His willingness to forgive and save. Faith means to trust to a point of commitment. You cannot just believe in God. You must be willing to give your life to God's teachings and God's will. Salvation is God's gift if you will receive it with a commitment to turn and follow Jesus.

Confess Jesus and Believe That He Was Raised from the Dead by God

The Bible says, "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved." (Romans 10:9). The word confess means to acknowledge to God that Jesus is Savior and Lord, to believe with all your heart that Jesus died on the cross for you and came out of the grave, believe that He is alive and will change your life as you follow and obey His teachings.

Pray to the Lord and Be Saved:

The Bible says, "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." (Romans 10:13). Whoever means anyone can ask God for forgiveness of sin and turn from sin and follow Jesus.

Pray this simple prayer and mean it and you will be saved

"Lord Jesus, I know I am a sinner and need Your forgiveness. I know You died on the cross for me. I now turn from my sins and ask You to forgive me. I invite You into my heart and life. I trust You as Savior and will follow You as Lord. Thank You for saving me. Amen."

If you prayed this prayer to receive Jesus Christ as your Savior, would you email us and tell us? We care about you! g-i-g@egroups.com

This prayer of faith begins you on the greatest journey one can ever make. You need to contact a local Bible believing church and tell them of your decision. They will instruct you on baptism and church membership.

Faith in Jesus Christ makes the difference between despair and hope.

"For God so loved the world,
that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in him should not perish,
but have everlasting life."
(John 3:16)

God doesn't call the qualified,
He qualifies the called.

"He paid a debt He didn't owe,
Because I owed a debt I couldn't pay!"

"Do not let your hearts be troubled.
Trust in God; trust also in me.
In my Father's house are many rooms;
if it were not so, I would have told you.
I am going there to prepare a place for you.
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back
and take you to be with me that you
also may be where I am."
- John 14: 1-3 (NIV)

"He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose."

"Even so, come quickly, Lord Jesus."
