"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 KJV

 

What is a

Christian?

A Christian is someone who has confessed his/her sins, accepts Jesus as Lord and Savior, and believes that He died on the cross for our sins and rose again.

Being a Christian is more than going to church on Sundays or reading the Bible everyday.  As a Christian, we are to invite God into our lives and develop a relationship with Him, and study the Word of God so that it may be applied to our everyday lives. Also, we should make every effort to be Christlike in our words and actions. 

If you are not saved, we encourage you to view the next section on "How to Become Saved".

  How to Become Saved

Salvation is the greatest gift God has made available to man.  There is only one way to become saved, and that is to profess that Jesus is Lord.  Romans 10:9 tells us that in order to become saved, "...thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead..."

If you are seeking to become saved, you're in the right direction.  Say the following prayer:

“Father, I come to you now in the name of Jesus. I confess before You that I am a sinner. Father, I boldly renounce my past life with Satan, and ask Your forgiveness for my sins. I believe that You sent Your only Son to shed His precious blood for my sins and that He was risen from the dead that I may be saved. I make Jesus Lord of my life right now. Thank you for your unlimited grace. I am a new creation and commit my life to You. Amen.”
If you prayed that prayer for the first time, we welcome you to God’s family.  You are now set free from bondage and have been made whole through the precious blood of Jesus.  It brings great joy that you have decided to step out on faith and make the best decision of your life.  We encourage you to take steps in learning more about being a Christian.  The links below provide information for new Christians.  If you should have any questions or would like more information, contact us.
