How to become a Christian

How to become a Christian

How to become a Christian

  

  • Admit that you are a sinner. Romans 3:23, “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.” That is every one of us. No one is innocent.  Romans 6:23, “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Our punishment for sin is death.
  •  Believe that Jesus is God’s Son. Romans 5:8, “But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Jesus paid the price for our sin. Jesus died on a cross for our sin and God raised Him from the dead. 

  

  • Confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord. Romans: 10:9, “if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.” Romans 10:13 expresses it like this, “For everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” Romans 8:1, “Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.”

  

  • Do it now. Time is promised to no one. You are not reading this page by accident. If God is stirring your heart, now is the right time to respond.  Just pray, “God, I know that I have sinned against you and deserve to be punished. But Your Son Jesus took my place on the cross and died for me. I believe that You raised Him from the dead just as You have said. I know because of what Jesus did that I am forgiven and that You love me. I place my life in Your hands and trust You for my salvation. Thank You for the great gift of love you have given me. In Jesus name, Amen!

How to become a Member

We are a Southern Baptist church. Upon becoming a believer, baptism is a first step of obedience in beginning your journey with Jesus. Our beliefs are explained in “The Statement of Faith” section of the website.

We believe in baptism by immersion. This means to be completely put under the water and brought back up. We require that a believer be baptized by immersion before becoming a member. Being a member here will not save you, only becoming a believer will do that.

We strive to motivate the new member to become an avid student of the bible and an uncompromising doer of God’s Word. Upon completion of these requirements, the potential member will go before the church body to be voted on. We get excited about new members so you will have a happy bunch of believers cheering for you!

If you are joining from another Baptist church and you have confessed and turned away from your sin and trusted upon The Lord Jesus and been baptized, you may join by the transfer of your membership letter from your previous church or by statement of faith if that is not available.

If you are uncertain of your beliefs or need to know more about becoming a member, please feel free to contact the church. Our hours are on the home page of the web site. There are people who will meet with you to help you in this matter.
