PART 2: What must I do if I want to become a born again Christian? born again Christian?





Becoming a born again Christian (a new born baby)
is very simple. You just need to say this prayer:
“God, I know that I have sinned against you and am
deserving of punishment. But Jesus Christ took the
punishment that I deserve so that through faith in
him I could be forgiven. I place my trust in you for
salvation. Thank you for your wonderful grace and
forgiveness- the gift of eternal life! At that very
moment you said Amen you have died to yourself
and are transformed into a new born baby. Or you
can go to your church and ask the pastor to pray
with you.
You have to understand that now you have
awakened the spirit that God poured in your heart.
Remember that now the Holy Spirit is your helper
he is the one that will guide and lead you
according to the purpose of God. As it is said in
(Ephesians 1:11” all things are done according to
God’s plan and decision; and God chose us to be
his own people in union with Christ because of his
own purpose”)

Now that you have been born again do not
continue to sin, sin no longer has power over you,
as it is said in (Romans 6:6-7 “And we know that
our old being has been put to death with Christ on
the gross, in order that the power of the sinful self
might be destroyed, so that we should no longer be
the slaves of sin. For when people die, they are set
free from the power of sin.
(Colossians 3:5-10 you must put to death, then, the
earthly desires at work in you, such as sexual
immorality, indecency, lust, evil passions, and
greed (for greed is a form of idolatry). Because of
such things God’s anger will come upon those who
do not obey him. At one time you yourselves used
to live according to such desires, when your life
was dominated by them.
But now you must get rid of all those things: anger,
passion, hateful feelings. No insults or obscene
talk must ever come from your lips. Do not lie to
one another, for you have taken off the old self
with its habits and have put on a new self. This is
the being which God is its creator, and is
constantly renewing in his own image, in order to
bring you to a full knowledge of himself.
