How to become a Christian<\/h2>\n

There are twelve very easy steps to follow<\/h3>\n
    \n
  1. You must repent your sins to the heavenly Father and ask for forgiveness <\/li>\n
  2. Except Jesus Christ as your personal savour and excepted that he sacrificed himself in the place of your sins, and his blood has washed you clean <\/li>\n
  3. Invite the Holy Spirit to live inside of you, and guide you according to the will of God the father and not your own.<\/li>\n
  4. Using water, have yourself baptised in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost<\/li>\n
  5. Keep the 10 Commandments. The ten God himself wrote on stone tablets for mosses and the two Jesus gave his disciples namely: (Matthew 22:37 and 39) YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND. And YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.<\/li>\n
  6. Read the Bible at least once a day, even if it is only one verse, starting with the first four books in the New Testament.<\/li>\n
  7. Pray at least once a day, If you are not sure what to pray for, or how to pray use the prayer Jesus Christ gave us to pray: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name, Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen. You can also rededicate by praying your repentance prayer as many times as you desire.<\/li>\n
  8. Join a church of Jesus Christ, and give as the Holy spirit purpose in your heart.<\/li>\n
  9. Have fellowship with other Christens.<\/li>\n
  10. Help others whom are not Christians to become Christian. <\/li>\n
  11. Help other Christians to remain faithful during hard times.<\/li>\n
  12. Spread the word of God so that others may also know his grace.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    \nand I Invite the Holy Ghost to live inside of me

    1) You shall have no other gods before Me. \u2013 Exodus 20 verse 3
    \nYOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF. \u2013 Mark 12:31
    \nThere is no other commandment greater than these.<\/p>\n

    2) You shall not make for yourself an idol, or any likeness of what is in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the water under the earth. You shall not worship them or serve them \u2013 Exodus 20 verse 4-5<\/p>\n

    \nand whoever says, \u2018You fool,\u2019 shall be guilty enough to go into the fiery hell.
    \nTherefore if you are presenting your offering at the altar,
    \nand there remember that your brother has something against you,
    \nleave your offering there before the altar and go; first be reconciled to your brother,
    \nand then come and present your offering.
    \nMake friends quickly with your opponent at law while you are with him on the way,
    \nso that your opponent may not hand you over to the judge,
    \nand the judge to the officer, and you be thrown into prison.
    \nTruly I say to you, you will not come out of there until you have paid up the last cent. \u2013 Matthew 5:21-26<\/p>\n

    7) You shall not commit adultery. \u2013 Exodus 20 verse 14

    \nAnd I say to you, whoever divorces his wife, except for immorality, and marries another woman commits adultery.
    \n\u2013 Matthew 19:9<\/p>\n

    8) You shall not steal. \u2013 Exodus 20 verse 15
    \nYour riches have rotted and your garments have become moth-eaten. Your gold and your silver have rusted; and their rust will be a witness against you and will consume your flesh like fire. It is in the last days that you have stored up your treasure! Behold, the pay of the laborers who mowed your fields, and which has been withheld by you, cries out against you; and the outcry of those who did the harvesting has reached the ears of the Lord of Hosts. You have lived luxuriously on the earth and led a life of wanton pleasure; you have fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter. \u2013 James 5:2-5<\/p>\n

    9) You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor. \u2013 Exodus 20 verse 16<\/p>\n

    10) You shall not covet your neighbor\u2019s house; you shall not covet your neighbor\u2019s wife or his male servant or his female servant or his ox or his donkey or anything that belongs to your neighbor. (Theft and Adultery in the heart)<\/p>\n
