Belonging to God

What is a Christian?

Picture
By Lars Hyldgård

The Bible gives us these answers:

1) Someone who believes that Jesus is the Son of God, who, on our behalf, took the punishment for all our sins on the cross! 

2) Someone who lives a life of daily, personal repentance, and considers God's will to be more important than one's own.

3) Someone who has fellowship with Jesus and with others who believe in Him!

4) Someone who lives in the light of what Jesus has said, and who has decided that HE (Jesus) and His word are the highest authorities in one's life.

5) Someone who has been saved from the power of sin and Satan, and has been transferred into the kingdom of light.

6) Someone, who, through sincere faith in Jesus, has become a child of God and has received eternal life as a gift!

7) Someone who surrenders to God and is now able to experience the help and guidance of God in all areas of life!

8) Someone who does not have to fear death!

9) Someone who is never alone, but who experiences the presence of God through the Holy Spirit!

10) Someone who is now able to experience the greatest meaning in life possible!

11) Someone who is happy to be forgiven - and is ready to forgive others!

12) Someone who, throughout life, learns how to love and to serve, and who learns to long for God's approval, rather than the approval of people!

13) Someone who does not serve in his / her own power and striving, but who is depending on The One Who strengthens us by His word and Spirit. 

14) Someone who does not accept sin and selfishness in his / her own life! 
 
15) Someone who gratefully desires to live their life in honor of Jesus!

I want to become a Christian
- what do I need to do?

  • Admit to God that you have sinned and ask for His forgiveness in Jesus’ name. Name the things that you regret. Call on Jesus and ask for a completely new start in life! The Bible says: “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness” (1. John 1:9).
  • Turn away from all sin and let Jesus become Lord of your life! Decide that from now on His word and His will is the highest authority in your life.
  • Be baptized in water – like Jesus said. Water baptism is a burial of the old, sinful life and a resurrection into the new life with Jesus. Read Romans 6:3-5. (We can help you to get baptized or to find someone near you that can help you).
  • Receive the Holy Spirit – God’s tangible presence. This is also called the baptism of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit gives you the power to live the new life as a disciple of Jesus. When you are filled with the Holy Spirit, you can experience a new freedom, speaking in tongues and possibly other gifts of the Spirit. You can read about it in The Book of Acts, chap. 8, 10 and 19. Also, look up The Gospel of John chap. 7:38-39.
  • Read the Bible / The New Testament daily! The Bible is filled with life-giving words for you. It supplies you with the most important, spiritual food. You can read the Bible online HERE
  • Pray and give thanks. Set aside a good amount of time to fellowship with God in prayer each day! Prayer is like the breath of the believer.
  • Find a fellowship of Christians that truly live with God. In time, God will reward you with the best kind of fellowship you have ever experienced.
  • Share your faith with others!

If you want to start a whole new life with Jesus, we would love to hear from you! Maybe we can help to get started, or help you to find some Christian contacts that live nearby you...
