God gave everyone a gift. Some people choose to accept that gift, and some do not. God wants you to spend eternal life with him in Heaven. He wants you to spend eternal life with Him and his Son, Jesus. Jesus was a perfect man, he never sinned. Everyone, except Jesus, has sinned. We all have sinned, even those we think of as "good people". No one can enter the Kingdom of God (Heaven) if they sin... But God has given you a gift! Jesus died on the cross for our sins. Jesus died for you, he died for me, your mom, your best friend, he died for everyone, so that you could except his gift and live eternal life with Him. If you accepted his gift you will be free of all your sins, and if you're free of your sins, you will spend eternity with God, Jesus, and other followers of God.
"For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord"
Romans 6:23
If you would like to become a Christian right now, I will write out a prayer for you that you can repeat. Praying is just talking to God, like you would to a friend...
Dear God,
I know I have sinned, I was born a sinner. But I want to be free of my sins. I want you to be apart of my life, and to show me the ways of your teaching. I accept your gift Jesus. Please help me share your love to others, so then they can spend eternal life with you too. Thank you Lord, for giving me this chance to become a Christian.
In your name I pray,
Amen
For those of you who just became a Christian, I am so thrilled! Once someone has become a Christian, they are a Brother/Sister in Christ. So as your Sister in Christ, I am very ecstatic to have you as part of God's family! I encourage you to go to a church and buy a Bible so you can learn more about God.
"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!"
2 Corinthians 5:17
For those of you who chose not to become a Christian right now, I want you to know that I am praying for you! I pray that you will become a Christian, and be part of God's family. You mean so much to me right now; God has been putting this on my heart for so long! It is never too late to except the gift of God.
"I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes" Romans 1:16
