Baptism
You have made the most important decision you will ever make in your entire life! You are now a new creation in Christ, a reborn child of God. In other words, you are now a Christian (Christ-like). That means that your sins have been forgiven, and whatever you did before this decision no longer matters because according to the Bible, all things have become new. Your outward appearance may look the same, but it is very important for you to know that you have been given a fresh new start on life.
It is also very important for you to know what being a Christian entails, and how to begin living your newborn life in Christ. Here are a few things you will need to begin incorporating into your daily routine as soon as possible, so that you can begin to grow in the things of God. The sooner you begin to apply these practices, the sooner you will begin to strengthen your faith and trust in God.
- Begin reading the Holy Bible every day – "Study this Book of Instruction continually. Meditate on it day and night so you will be sure to obey everything written in it. Only then will you prosper and succeed in all you do." ~Joshua 1:8
- Begin talking to God daily through prayer – "Ask Me and I will tell you remarkable secrets you do not know about things to come." ~Jeremiah 33:3
- Become connected to a local church – "And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage one another…" ~Hebrews 10:25
- Share your faith with others - "Everyone who acknowledges Me publicly here on earth, I will also acknowledge before My Father in Heaven." ~Matthew 10:32
There are other important steps you should take as well, that will help you to grow in your Christian walk, but these are the initial ones that you can begin implementing right away.
We are truly excited about your recent decision, and look forward to hearing from you.
Again, Welcome to the Family of God!
