them." (Ezekiel 36:26-27)

unto righteousness; and with the
mouth confession is made unto
salvation." (Romans

he which hath begun a good work in
you will perform it until the day of
Jesus Christ."

"...For
I know whom I have believed, and am
persuaded that he is able to keep
that which I have committed unto him
against that day." (2
Timothy 1:12)
"There
hath no temptation taken you but
such as is common to man: but God is
faithful, who will not suffer you to

unto him that is able to keep you
from falling, and to present you
faultless before the presence of his

Christ Jesus our Lord." (Romans

# 12
- NOW THAT I HAVE GIVEN MY
HEART
TO CHRIST, WHAT IS THE NEXT STEP ?
Now
that you have given your heart and
life to the Lord Jesus Christ you
will want to attend church
regularly. You will truly
want to fully experience this life
altering experience.
You
should attend a church where
pastor and people believe 100% in
the Bible - its authority,
validity, and infallibility.
I
would like to recommend you to
attend a church that teaches all
that Jesus taught when He was here
upon the Earth. I would strongly
suggest that you attend a church
that is Full Gospel and believes
in present day miracles and
healing for the sick, wrought in
Jesus' name.
I
would strongly recommend a church
that believes in, and practices
Water Baptism by immersion. After
you have given your heart to Jesus
Christ you will want to follow the
Lord's command and be baptized in
water.
I
would encourage you to attend a
church where they believe the Full
Gospel and allow the Holy Spirit
of God to have His way.
Jesus
Christ is the only answer for a new
life. Without Jesus Christ in
your life your life, there will
always be an empty space in your
heart. But when you accept
Jesus into your life, you will fill
that empty hole and feel satisfied
and whole.
THE
BIBLE HAS THE ANSWER TO EVERY
QUESTION & EVERY PROBLEM
Always
remember that God's word is the
final authority and the Bible has
the answers to every question and
problem. God will lead you and
direct you. You will now have
the peace and assurance that not
only do you have a new life, but you
will go on to live forever with
Christ Jesus when you die. You
can know for sure, in your heart,
that your future is sealed, and you
will live in Paradise with the Lord
for all eternity.
Pray
the SINNERS PRAYER a few paragraphs
down, and believe the words you
say. Jesus Christ the Lord
will hear your prayer and your name
will be written down in the
"Lamb's Book of
Life". You are now a
child of God, you have a new
Heavenly Father who cares about you.
For
further spiritual counsel or prayer
for unsaved loved ones, sick and
suffering, please write me.
When you write, please let me know
if you accepted Christ after reading
these words.
MY
CONFESSION OF FAITH
As
God is my witness I do hereby
solemnly declare that I NOW receive
Jesus Christ into my heart and life.
I believe that Jesus Christ is the
Son of God, that He died for me on
Calvary's Cross and rose again from
the dead. By His grace and power I
will live for Him the rest of my
life.
