Finding Jesus – The Path
Obeying the Gospel of Jesus Christ Creates a New Person,
A New Creature in Christ.
At this point, many being moved by the care and love of God, will repent (turn away from things that hurt the Lord, to doing things that please him) and at that point want to be saved as taught in the book of Acts.
Salvation is an extremely simple process…
1) Chose to believe on the Lord Jesus Christ
Believe …
-
that he is who he said he is, Is 9:6
-
that he is none other than Almighty God manifested in the flesh, Co.2:9
-
that he lived, died and rose again on the third day – that’s called the gospel, and he did that to take away your sins, I Cor, 15 1:3
that he deeply loves you personally and desires a strong powerful, intimate relationship with you, Matt. 11:28
2) Repent of your sins and Turn to God
Repentance is a type of dying out to your own will and your own selfish desires and ambitions, turning from sin and turning to the Lord, to do his will. Matt 3:2,
Rom. 6:1-14 NKJV
Dead to Sin, Alive to God
1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? 2 Certainly not! How shall we who died to sin live any longer in it? 3 Or do you not know that as many of us as were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death? 4 Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
5 For if we have been united together in the likeness of His death, certainly we also shall be in the likeness of His resurrection, 6 knowing this, that our old man was crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be [a]done away with, that we should no longer be slaves of sin. 7 For he who has died has been [b]freed from sin. 8 Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him, 9 knowing that Christ, having been raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no longer has dominion over Him. 10 For the death that He died, He died to sin once for all; but the life that He lives, He lives to God. 11 Likewise you also, [c]reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
12 Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts. 13 And do not present your members as [d]instruments of unrighteousness to sin, but present yourselves to God as being alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God. 14 For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace.
3) BE WATER BAPTISED IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST- TO WASH AWAY YOUR SINS
That means fully dunked – immersed under the water in the beautiful name of the Lord Jesus Christ this will washed away all your sins.
This is a type of burying the old you that you put to death in repentance. Acts 2:38, Acts 19:1-7, Rom 6:3,4,
I Cor 15:4
4) RECEIVE THE GIFT OF THE HOLY GHOST
YOU WILL SPEAK IN A NEW LAUNGUAGE GIVEN TO YOU BY GOD AS A CONFIRMATION OF HIS INDWELLING
Which is inviting Jesus Christ to take up residence within your spirit.
The Lord himself will baptize you with this precious gift and you will know you have received it when you speak in a language you have never learned, at that point you have full assurance of being saved according to the Bible. John 3:5, Acts 2:38, Rom. 6:4, Colossians 2:12
We refer to obeying the Gospel as someone who is an Apostolic or Bible believing Christian.

What is a Bible Believing Christian?
A Bible Believing Christian is totally different from a “denominational” Christian such as: Catholic, Anglican, United, Lutheran, Baptist, Alliance, Trinitarian Pentecostal, Church of Christ, or any other denominational Christian group that most people are familiar with in their neightbourhood.
No one is asking that you join a denominational church group.
When we speak of a Bible Believing Christian we are speaking of someone who believes the Bible completely and basis all his beliefs on the Word of God; as opposed to denominational Christians who believe in creeds or an organization, or the traditions of men, that are held within these groups.
For a Bible Believing Christian – the Bible is the source of all doctrine (teaching) and practices. The caution here is that you must properly know how to apply the 66 books to your life; otherwise you can actually do spiritual damage to yourself.
See Peter’s admonition to be cautious…
2 Pet 3:16 (KJV)
As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.
