The first question asked many times is,

"Why do I need to become a Christian?"


When sin entered our world it caused a separation between man and God. Choosing to do the things that are against God's guidelines is called SIN, and it is sin that separates us from Him.

There is only one way to bridge that sin gap. It is with
Jesus Christ. Jesus died on the Cross, and it is because of that sacrifice that we can reunite with God. Being a "Christian" means that you belong to Jesus Christ and follow His ways.


So how do I become a Christian?

     
Step 1: You must hear the good news about Jesus. - (Romans 10:14-17)
     Step 2: You must believe He is who the Bible says He is. - (Mark 16:16)
     Step 3: You must repent of your sins. - (Luke 13:3, Acts 2:38)
     Step 4: You must confess that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. - (Romans 10:9-10)

     Next, be baptized as a believer of Jesus Christ. - (Acts 2:38, Galatians 3:27)
     In response you should live a life worthy of Jesus Christ. - (Colossians 1:21-23)


You probably have a lot of other questions about all of this. No website could ever provide all of the necessary information and study to help you with this decision. It is the most important decision you will ever make in your life- even more important than who you will marry, where you will attend college, or what profession you will work. Those things will all fade away when you die. But your soul will live forever. We at Faith Baptist Church want you to live forever in heaven with God and His Son Jesus Christ. Please contact us if we can help you make a decision.
