Read: Romans 10:9
So how do you actually become a Christian? You just have to take a few simple steps. Read Romans 10:9 again…
That’s it! Confess with your mouth. Believe in your heart that Jesus is Lord…that God raised him from the dead, and your sins are forgiven and your relationship with God is begun.
Do that, and you’re a Christian.But you’re probably thinking, “Don’t I have to be a better person first?” No, you don’t. You don’t change in order to gain God’s love, you change because you’ve experienced his love.When you trust Jesus as your Savior, you walk into the fullness of God’s love. Gradually, over time, God’s love changes you as you follow Jesus. You change because you’re loved, not in order to be loved.Through His death on the cross, and then coming back from the dead, Jesus took all of your wrong and gave you all of His right.If you believe that and commit to following Him, your life will never be the same. Believing in Jesus is the first step on the greatest journey of your life. You haven’t finished the race—you’ve just gotten started.
