Becoming a Christian is not as hard as some people think it is. Christianity is not a religion, but a personal relationship with Jesus. Its as easy as ABC.
A) Admit that you are a sinner and that you cant get into heaven on your own.
B) Believe in your heart that Jesus Christ is Lord and that he died for your sins and then rose to life three days later.
C) Confess your sins to God and ask Him to come into your life and make you the person that He wants you to be.
If you agree with these things and would like to pray to receive Christ as your savior, you can pray a prayer like this one. (Please remember these are not some magical words. What really matters is your heart, God knows what you mean.)
Dear Jesus,
I am so sorry for all the wrong things Ive done in my life. I understand that I am a sinner and that there is no way that I can ever be good enough to earn my way into heaven. Jesus, today I want to ask you forgive me of all of my sins. I believe that You died on the cross to pay for my sins and that You came back to life three days later. Please come into my life and help me to be the person you want me to be. I give control of my life to you. Thank You for loving me so much and for giving me this free gift of eternal life. I love You. Amen.
If you just prayed this prayer, know that all of heaven is rejoicing! The next step in your relationship is to start reading the Bible, God' love letter to us, and to find a local church to get pluged into. One more thing, tell someone that you know is a Christian or a leader at the church you go to about your decision. They can help answer the questions that you may have.
