Do you want to become a christian?????

[greatnews]

I am writing to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ the son of God. So will you accept the sacrifice Jesus made by giving up his life to save yours, so that if you believe that he died on the cross, and if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that he was rose from the dead on the third day by God the father, you will be saved. He did it all to offer you eternal life, and forgiveness of your sins, to pay off your sin debt. The debt that you owed God because of your sin that separates you from God that debt you could never pay off, that Jesus paid it in full having nailed it to the cross.

So will you receive the free gift of pardon from your sins, and accept the free gift of eternal life? Will you accept the free gifts by praying the sinners prayer ?

Now please if you want to go to heaven, and receive the free gifts please pray with me by using your mouth and speaking pray this with me. Please Pray ( dear Jesus I believe that you died on the Cross for my sins, I acknowledge that I am a sinner, and I know I can't save myself. I ask you to come into my heart, and save me, and forgive me of my sins. I confess that Jesus Christ is the Lord, I repent of my sin. I accept you as my Lord, and savior I call upon your name Lord Jesus amen) Remember Jesus loves you so much he died for you!!

Now if you prayed this prayer, said it out aloud, and believed in Jesus. you are saved, which means you now a christian, and is going to heaven. Also remember you can't ever go to heaven by being a good person for the bible says there is none good, but one, and that is God. So will you pray the sinners prayer, and accept Jesus as your Lord, and Savior?????????????

How lovely is it to get the gospel out there . This is the inner court where most of us are believers, and have placed our belief and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ.

Just remember, it's not the prayer that saves, it is Christ, and prayer is not how we enter in , but faith.

I am one of those who prayed the sinners prayer after responding to an altar call at church. But I placed my faith in Christ the moment my hand went up, and I was believing in Him before my feet even started walking up the front.

The prayer became a public confession and verbalisation of what had already happened within.

Praise be to Jesus

that may be true, but the publican prayed the sinners prayer in the bible and he was saved, also confession is key in salvation read romans 10:9 which says if you confess with your mouth Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God hath raised him from the dead you will be saved...............so confession does lead to salvation

You have to understand what "confess that Jesus Christ is Lord" meant in that historical context. We are talking about competing with Caesar for Lordship. Caesar demanded to be Lord, to declare Jesus Christ to be Lord was a public insult to both Caesar and Rome. To refuse to call Caesar Lord would mean you could be put in prison, beaten, and killed.

I think in context, this verse brings home a very strong reminder, that our belief in Christ is not just something quiet, it's not hidden, it is not just academic belief, but the strongest of trusts lived out publicly. Would you proclaim your strong faith in Jesus even if the cost was death, or a very strong chance of it? THAT is the kind of belief we are to have in Jesus.

Bingo!

This belief is life changing.

I heard a report recently on ESPN about just such a life changing Faith.

Meanwhile, we are being redeemed and restored. The restoration is fascinating. I've been delving deep into it lately due to a Theology class I'm taking.

Our faith is useless if it is just a profession and there is no real repentance and change inwardly towards God.
