Becoming A Christian

You must first HEAR the word of God as we are told in:

Rom. 10:17 - “So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.”
Rom. 10:13-14 - “For "whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved." 14How then shall they
call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not
heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?

You must BELIEVE that Christ is the son of God, that He died for your sins on the cross, and the He
was buried and resurrected on the 3rd day:

Mark 16:15-16 - “And He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.”
Heb. 11:6 - “But 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.”

You must REPENT of your sins (for all have sinned - Rom. 3:23 ):

Luke 13:3 - “I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.”
Acts 17:30 - “Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men
everywhere to repent,”

You must CONFESS that Jesus is the Son of God:

Rom. 10:10 - “For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is
made unto salvation.”
2 John 1:7 - “For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is
come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.”

You must be BAPTIZED for the remission of your sins:

Acts. 2:38 - “Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of
Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.”
Acts. 22:16 - “And now why tarriest thou? arise,and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on
the name of the Lord.”
