How to be Born Again
How to be Born Again
The Word of God tells us we were born separated from God:
For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God Romans ch3 v23
It also tells us of God's love for all mankind:
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. John ch3 v16
We are called to believe that Jesus Christ is above all, and that he is risen from the dead, and we are to show that we believe by confessing so with our mouth:
That if you confess with your mouth, Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. Romans ch10 v9-10
You can receive the Lord into your life by praying this prayer:
Dear Lord Jesus,
"I believe You are the Son of God.
I believe You came to the earth, and that You died on the cross for me,
That You ascended to heaven so that I may be saved.
Lord Jesus, I acknowledge that I am a sinner and ask You to forgive me.
I give you my heart and my whole life,
Come into my heart and save my soul."
You can pray this prayer anywhere and at any time. Once you do so, your life will never be the same again because God will hear your prayer.
You need to do three things after your prayer.
- Get a Bible and start to read it daily and pray daily to God for His help and direction.
- Tell somebody that will understand what you have done in asking God into your life as a confession of your faith. Remember we would like to hear from you.
- Find a good church where they will be able to tell you more about Jesus. We maybe able to help you find a place in your area so ask us.
