Want to know Jesus?
Who is Jesus?
Jesus is the Son of God who came to Earth in human form. He revealed God’s will to people through what He said and did. His life, death and resurrection were designed to bring us into a relationship with God.
What is a Christian?
A Christian is someone who believes that Jesus died, was buried and rose again. They have committed their life to following Jesus Christ with the help of the Holy Spirit to empower them to live a life which is pleasing to God.
A Christian relies implicitly on the truths of the Bible; in Romans 10:9 it says, 'If you declare with your mouth. "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.'
Why should I become a Christian?
Jesus says, in Mark 1:15 "The time has now come", he said "The kingdom of God has come near. Repent and believe the good news!"
Repentance is a transformative decision to turn away from self-destructive habits and align yourself with God. Repenting (becoming a Christian) restores your relationship with God. It enables you to know God's peace and purpose for your life, and promises for an eternity with him in heaven.
How can I be a Christian?
Becoming a Christian is simply taking a step of faith and inviting Jesus into your life.
If you'd like to do that, we encourage you to use this prayer:
​
Lord Jesus Christ,
I am sorry for the things I have done wrong in my life (take a few moments to ask His forgiveness for anything particular that is on your conscience).
Please forgive me. I now turn from everything that I know is wrong and I turn to you.
Thank you that you died on the cross for me so that I could be forgiven and set free.
Thank you that you offer me forgiveness and the gift of your Spirit. I now receive that gift.
Please come into my life by your Holy Spirit and be with me forever.
Thank You, Lord Jesus. Amen.
What now?
For your faith and your relationship with God to grow it's vital that you read the Bible and talk with God (pray).
You can download free Bible Apps which contain various translations. We recommend using the NIV (New International Version) or ESV (English Standard Version).
Perhaps start reading the book of John; try a few verses each day and ask God to speak to you as you read it.
