How does a person
become a Christian? How do you answer this question? Some say that a
moral life makes one a Christian. Others declare that joining a church
or being baptized makes a person a Christian. Still others call for a
person to "make a decision" or "pray the prayer" or "ask Jesus into
your heart". While opinions may be important, the one vital thing when
speaking of one becoming a Christian is what does God say in His Word.
God has given His
Word--the Bible--to reveal Himself, His purpose for man, and the way
to know Him personally. Everything a person needs to know about
becoming a Christian can be found in God's Word. As God gives a person
understanding of the gospel (the good news of how God, in Christ, has
provided salvation), then that person can come to genuine faith in
Jesus Christ and, consequently, become a Christian.
The Way of Faith
can help you on the journey to understanding the Christian faith. Each
section ends with questions for personal study or group discussions.
