The first step in knowing Christ is realizing that you are lost and have sinned against God, The Bible says in Romans 3:23 that ALL have sinned and come short of the glory of God, this means that no one is good enough to get to heaven on their own. It can't be obtained by works, or church attendance, or baptism, Jesus is the ONLY way. It says in John 14:6 that He is the way,

the truth, and the life and no one comes unto the Father but by him.

Once you realize that you are lost, you have to realize the punishment for your sins. It says in Romans 6:23a, "For the wages of sin is death.."- That means that you must die and spend eternity in hell for your sins, this may sound depressing but the verse goes on to say, "but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."- You may wonder why we have to ask Jesus into our hearts, what makes him so special? Well, because Jesus was perfect,- it says in 2 Corinthians 5:21 that "he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him."-, he was the only one that was suitable to die in our place. So, you see, through Jesus' death, you can live forever in a place called heaven. Pretty cool that someone loves you that much, huh?

Now you have a choice to make, you can either accept the gift of God (salvation) or reject it. Remember Romans 5:8 which says, "But God commends his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." Though none of us deserve him, he still came to die, and even if you were the only person on the planet, he still would have come and died on the cross for you. If you want to accept Jesus as the Lord of your life, you could pray a prayer similar to this: Dear Lord, Thank you for sending your only Son to die for my sins. Please forgive me of my sins and come into my heart. I know that I cannot get to Heaven by good works so I need Jesus to save me. Help me to be like you, in Jesus' name. Amen.

AnswerEasy, just ask Jesus into your heart and to be the Lord of your life. Admit you are a sinner and ask Him to forgive all your sins. He will wash you clean. Some individuals go through a lengthy prayer, but its really easy. He knows your heart. If you are sincere, he will save you, and call you one of His own. However, you really should get in contact with a Bible believing church for further instruction as to where to go from here (the point of salvation). AnswerBy believing in Jesus Christ...and accepting him as your Lord and Savior. Answer Romans 3:23 says, "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God".

1 John chapter 1 from verses 8 says, "If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us".

Verses 9 say "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us [our] sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness".

Verses:10 "If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us".

Sin placed all mankind in darkness of true life and the purpose of our journey to this earth is to find our way back to God and in God operate as spirit beings in reality of life. God allowed our existence on this earth for regeneration purposes and unless a spirit is fully regenerated at the expiry of time, such spirit will perish forever in the bottomless pits of hell. Regeneration takes place through what is called remissions of sins and remission is only possible through perfect sacrifice. Hebrews chapter 9 verses 22 say "And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission".

God is a perfect God and as a God of excellence and perfection, He will only accept a perfect sacrifice for the remissions of our sins. The whole essence of this sacrifice is to give us a new birth that is sin free to enable us dwell in His eternal life presence now and forevermore. In the gospel of John chapter 3 verses 3 Christ in his conversations about the kingdom of God with a Pharisee called Nicodemus said: "Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God". In same chapter verses 5 he said "Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and [of] the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God". What this is effectively talking about is regeneration of our spirits and we need regeneration to see and enter God's kingdom to be able to abide in His eternal life presence forever. A spirit that is not perfect in the eyes of God and free from sins cannot dwell in the presence of the Holy God let alone abide in His perfect kingdom forever.

God as a Spirit is a Holy Spirit and as the Holy Spirit of life, love. As love, God did not create us for religious purposes but for an eternal life peaceful relationship with Him. We have this relationship with Him through His own line of covenant and whosoever follows the correct line of covenant will find Jesus at the end of the line waiting to release them from death and place them in the presence of the eternal living God. God loves us so much to the extent that He does not wish for us to perish in darkness of hell. His real intention for us is salvation of our souls through His forgiveness of our sins. The first to sin before the first Adam sinned was Satan and some other rebellious angels and God banished them to hell for their rebellious ways. The sin of the first Adam led man into the same prison yard as the fallen angels however whereas they can never again find God's forgiveness, God made it possible for us to have His forgiveness through His perfect remissions sacrifice for our sins. God's remissions sacrifice for our sins is Christ Jesus and Christ as God's perfect sacrifice for remissions is the only way to redemption from sins and through redemption salvation of our souls from eternal prison of hell. The fallen angels knows very well that the only way to find salvation and redemption from sins is through Christ and as such the one thing they never want any man to believe in is that Christ is the Son of God and as true Son of God the last Adam through which we can all find redemption and salvation.

Throughout the era of time the principalities fallen angels have been busy deceiving mankind to deny mankind the benefit of God's salvation and unless a person shut their natural eyes and begin to seek for answers in the supernatural they will perish in sin forever. Natural life is not real life and our purpose here is to find our way to the real life, which is of the supernatural. In gospel of John chapter 14 verses 6 Jesus said " I am the way, the truth, and the life: no one comes unto the Father, but by me". Jesus as the perfect sacrifice is the way, the truth and the life because Christ is word and as word dwells in the Father and is the same as the Father.

Gospel of John chapter 1 verses 1 says, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God" Verses 14 of same chapter says "And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth". God is Word and He created everything with His word. God as Word gave us Christ as His Word to create us anew and to perfect our souls and spirits for eternal life abiding with His perfect Holy Spirit. God giving us Christ is evidence of His love for us and if we accept Christ as God's remission sacrifice for us, we show unto God that we appreciate His undying love for us. Gospel of John chapter 3 Verses 16 says "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life".

No one can redeem himself from sin hence God Himself had to do it for us. As such, we have salvation not by our own power but by God's grace and God's grace manifested to us is Jesus. The principalities fallen angels knowing that man has the benefit of the salvation they will never have, hates mankind with a passion. As a result, their main goal and objective in time era is to deceive man by focusing man's attention on the natural world so that man does not have any spiritual insight to be able to acquire benefit of salvation. Thanks be to God who out of His love for us not only gave us Christ as his perfect remission sacrifice but also made way for the gospel to spread across the world for the benefit of salvation of our souls. The gospel is called the Good News because it is the news of salvation our spirits needs to hear to journey from darkness to everlasting light.

The Good News of the gospel is that God has done everything necessarily required to redeem our souls from sins and all He wants us to do is to repent and seek His forgiveness with a sober spiritual heart and mind.

Romans chapter 10: from verses 9 says.

10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

10:10 For with the heart man believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

10:11 For the scripture saith, Whoever believes on him shall not be ashamed.

10:12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.

10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

What does this all mean?

1. It means you must first believe from your heart that Jesus as the Son of God is the way, the truth and the life.

2. Secondly, based upon your believe you must willingly repent from your sins, confess Christ as your personal Lord and saviour and invite him to enter your heart and make you a new creature that is free from sin and thereby perfect in the eyes of God.

It follows from this that the first thing you need to do to begin your eternal life journey is to confess Christ as your personal Lord and saviour and invite Him into your life so that He can make you perfect for eternal life relationship with the Almighty creator uncreated.

You make this confession by saying this simple prayer:

"Lord Jesus, I confess that I am a sinner and I ask you today to forgive me all of my sins. I confess you today as my personal Lord and savior and I invite you to come into my life right now and make me a new creature for eternal life abiding with God the head and the creator of all spirits now and forevermore".

If you have said this prayer from your heart, Jesus will surely come inside of you today because Jesus as life is not dead but alive forever and as the bible says whosoever confesses Him as their personal Lord and saviour will be saved. Confessing Christ as your personal Lord and saviour is equivalent to you saying you want nothing further to do with the realm of darkness and as a result be rest assured that the fallen angels of the darkness realm will try you to discourage you from holding on to Christ as the truth to the end. Christ is fully aware that their wicked intentions and desperate desire is to keep you locked up in darkness in order to enslave you in an abusive relationship with them hence He does not expect you to rise above your trials on your own but that you overcome it all with Him in you. Gospel of John chapter 16:33 says, "These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulations: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world". What Christ is saying to you here is that in Him, you have already overcome the world which means no matter what you go through in the world, you will remain an overcomer as long as you remain in Him.

If you have truly confessed Christ and believe Him in your heart, He will continue to abide with you in all of your trials and from inside of you, He will reform, enable and empower you in all realms and dominion and you will remain victorious forever in Him. Christ is as the living Son of God is the truth and as the truth the only way for you to have eternal life relationship with the one true God. Your confessing Christ is your first step, the next step is to always persevere in your trials and no matter what the case might be, always hold on to Him for He is the only one that can make you perfect and enable you dwell in the Holy presence of God the creator of heaven and earth now and forevermore.

I pray that God the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost leads and direct you from now on to do the right things. I also pray that the Lord Almighty enables you to complete your life journey successfully and at the end of your journey. I pray that God affords you the entire benefit of salvation which is everlasting life full of peace, rest and joy in His eternal kingdom of light.
