My testimonial

Christ's Passion changed me....


My Testimony

I'm glad I know that I have eternal life because now I
know that I can face life's challenges with a smile. I
fear nothing, for the LORD is on my side!

When I was little, I often felt abandoned by my peers. I
was the one they picked on. During my elementary years, I
had little friends. Eventualy they betrayed me and even
though I did not know it, God was always there for me. As
the Scripture says:

"Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.' So we
may say with confidence, "The Lord is my helper; I will
not be afraid. What can man do to me?" Hebrews 3:5, 6

This was true during my times of need and depression. Now,
in my teen years, it is even more true. God has shown me
through going to Church that it is HE who is worthy to be
praised. When I went to a Teens Encounter Christ retreat,
I saw the LORD's passion for mankind. I saw how HE wants
each of us to know HIM.

"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only
begotten son. That whoshallever believe in HIM will not
perish, but have eternal life" John 3:16 (NLT)

Now I am living a life of trust and devotion. Whatever God
asks me, I do without question. Christ died for our sins
on the Cross so we might have eternal life. The least I
can do for HIM is serve HIM until HE returns. I ask each
of you, accept Jesus today. Life without Christ is in
vain, for we all have sinned and fallen short of the glory
of God. Romans 3:23 (New Life Version says):

For all men have sinned and have missed the shining-
greatness of God.

So repent of your sins today! Turn and cast them upon the
solid rock....Jesus Christ! At the end of this testimony s
information on how to receive Jesus into your life.

I know for sure I am going to Heaven because Jesus died on
the Cross for my sins. I believe this and live according
to the Word of God.







How to become a Christian:
_____________________________________

We acknowledge that Jesus Christ is God; that He came to
earth as a man in order to live the sinless life that we
cannot live; that He died in our place, so that we would
not have to pay the penalty we deserve.
We confess our past life of sin -- living for ourselves
and not obeying God.
We admit we are ready to trust Jesus Christ as our Savior
and Lord.
We ask Jesus to come into our heart, take up residence
there, and begin living through us.

Prayer of Salvation - It Begins With Faith in God
When we pray the prayer of salvation, we're letting God
know we believe His Word is true. By the faith He has
given us, we choose to believe in Him. The Bible tells us
that "without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he
who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a
rewarder of those who diligently seek Him." (Hebrews 11:6)

So, when we pray, asking God for the gift of salvation,
we're exercising our free will to acknowledge that we
believe in Him. That demonstration of faith pleases God,
because we have freely chosen to know Him.

Prayer of Salvation - Confessing Our Sin
When we pray the prayer of salvation, we're admitting that
we've sinned. As the Bible says of everyone, save Christ
alone: "For all have sinned, and fall short of the glory
of God." (Romans 3:23)

To sin is simply to fall short of the mark, as an arrow
that does not quite hit the bull's-eye. The glory of God
that we fall short of is found only in Jesus Christ: "For
it is the God who commanded light to shine out of
darkness, who has shone in our hearts to give the light of
the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus
Christ." (2 Corinthians 4:6)

The prayer of salvation, then, recognizes that Jesus
Christ is the only human who ever lived without sin. "For
He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we
might become the righteousness of God in Him." (2
Corinthians 5:21)

Prayer of Salvation - Professing Faith in Christ as Savior
and Lord

With Christ as our standard of perfection, we're now
acknowledging faith in Him as God, agreeing with the
Apostle John that: "In the beginning was the Word
(Christ), and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
He was in the beginning with God. All things were made
through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was
made." (John 1:1-3)

Because God could only accept a perfect, sinless
sacrifice, and because He knew that we could not possibly
accomplish that, He sent His Son to die for us and pay the
eternal price. "For God so loved the world that He gave
His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should
not perish but have everlasting life.." (John 3:16)




Prayer of Salvation - Say It & Mean It Now!
Do you agree with everything you have read so far? If you
do, don't wait a moment longer to start your new life in
Jesus Christ. Pray this with us:

"Father, I know that I have broken your laws and my sins
have separated me from you. I am truly sorry, and now I
want to turn away from my past sinful life toward you.
Please forgive me, and help me avoid sinning again. I
believe that your son, Jesus Christ died for my sins, was
resurrected from the dead, is alive, and hears my prayer.
I invite Jesus to become the Lord of my life, to rule and
reign in my heart from this day forward. Please send your
Holy Spirit to help me obey You, and to do Your will for
the rest of my life. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen."

Prayer of Salvation - I've Prayed It; Now What?
If you've prayed this prayer of salvation with true
conviction and heart, you are now a follower of Jesus.
This is a fact, whether or not you feel any different.
Religious systems may have led you to believe that you
should feel something - a warm glow, a tingle, or some
other mystical experience. The fact is, you may, or you
may not. If you have prayed the prayer of salvation and
meant it, you are now a follower of Jesus. The Bible tells
us that your eternal salvation is secure! "that if you
confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your
heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be
saved." (Romans 10:9)

Welcome to the family of God! I now encourage you now to find
a local church where you can be baptized and grow in the
knowledge of God through His Word, the Bible.
