How can you begin your personal relationship with God?
( 4 )
You must personally respond by trusting
Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord.
You Respond With Trust In Christ:
In Ephesians 2:8-9 the Bible says, "For it is by
grace you have been saved, through faith-- and this not from
yourselves, it is
the gift of God--not by works, so that no one can boast."
You Respond By Turning To God From Sin:
"Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins
may be wiped out . . ." (Acts 3:19).
You Respond By Receiving Christ:
"Yet to all who received Him, to those who
believed in His name, He gave the right to
become children of God . . . " (John 1:12).
Receiving Christ Means:
- Turning to God from your own way of living (repentance).
- Inviting Christ to come into your life and trusting Him to forgive your
sin.
- Allowing God to direct your life. Receiving Jesus Christ is not just an
emotional experience; nor is it just agreeing in your mind that
Jesus is the Son of God. It means total trust .
