A lot of people claim they are a Christian but do not really know what that means. To be a Christian is to be one who has accepted Jesus as Leader and Forgiver in your life by acknowledging with your mouth that He is the Son of God and believing in your heart He died and rose again. To come with repentance to be forgiven and given a new life… a new start.
Then living a life where you die to yourself, live like and follow Christ, dive into Christian community including church, and fulfill our calling of reaching others for the Lord in truth, love, and action. Within the Church community, to care for one another and to disciple one another to grow in this life daily.
Be cautious. The Bible tells us that there will be a day when we all stand before Him and there will be those who call Him “Lord, Lord” and He will say “I know you not.” Start a personal relationship with Him that impacts everything. If you need help or have questions, feel free to touch base.
