Welcome to The Family of God
To Become a Christian is easy, The First and Final Step
...all you need to do is to Believe.  This is why and how.



Listen to Jesus

To become a Christian, it is not about which church or denomination we ought to attend. It is not about which day we are to go to church. It is not about the do and doesn’t.   It is about salvation and redemption; it is about being saved from a horrible destiny.

To become a Christian is to accept Jesus as Christ.  Christ means the Anointed One (the Messiah), and The Messiah means the Promised deliverer.  The Promise deliverer is the One that God has to send so that whoever believes in Him has eternal life. (John 3:16) For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish (from a horrible destiny), but have everlasting life.

Why should we believe in His Son Jesus?  Because He is the one that took away the penalty of our sins in our place, that function is one of a redeemer, (Gal 3:13).  A redeemer is a relative of the family that has the right to buy back a property that a family member has lost, (Romans 5:19).  Adam has lost the ownership of the dominion on earth.  He lost it to Satan.  He lost it by disobeying God.  Adam disobeyed by eating the fruit that God had forbidden to eat.  The human race has since suffered the consequences of Adam's disobedience.

The consequences of his disobedience also included a change of mastership.  We are no longer sons of God but sons of disobedience, (Ephesians 2:2).  Satan is now our master of the unbelievers.  In addition, since Satan's destiny is to be separated from God for eternity in the lake of fire, the sons of disobedience have the same destiny.  

"And anyone not found written in the Book of Life
was cast into the lake of fire," Rev 20:15


Jesus loved us so much and in as much as God does, that He would take our death sentence in exchange for His life.  In return, whoever believes in Him is reinstated in the family of God.  Jesus lived a sinless life.  







Since Jesus lived a sinless life, death could not keep Him prisoner, (Acts 2:24).   Jesus' blood not only paid the penalty of our sins but also resurrected us with Him - by the new baptism of the Spirit, therefore, reinstated us in the family of God.  Not only are we reinstated, but He also appointed us to reign with Him, (2 Timothy 2:12).  He is sharing His inheritance with us, (Ephesians 1:11).  







There is only one catch…we are to decide to believe that He is the One that paid for our sins, for our disobedience and to trust in Him only.  He did all the work. That simple.  Just Believe, (John 6:29).  All sins from the beginning of time to the end of time had been forgiven, nailed to the cross, and paid for everybody from Adam to the last born human.


Satan knows that his time is short.  His destiny in everlasting fire is at hand.  With fury and vengeance, he wants to bring as many victims with him. Deceiving by lying is his greatest weapon, (Eph 6:12).  


"If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus 
and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved," Romans 10:9




THEY MUST NOT BELIEVE…is his motto.



Jesus is God, (John 1:1-5).  who took the form of a man.  Jesus will keep that form forever. Jesus still bears the scars on His hands, side, back, and forehead.  These scares will be with Him for eternity to remind us of the price He paid to redeem us.

Take it or leave it, if not saved, Satan is your master; your destiny is to be with him forever in the lake of fire.  You cannot be sitting on the fence, (Matthew 6:24).  It is your choice.  Choose eternal life with Jesus…it is that simple.  BELIEVE and Truth In JESUS.  Jesus did all the work. 

Pray this simple prayer: Jesus I believe that you are the One that God had sent to pay for my sins.  Please forgive my disobedience. I accept you as my Redeemer, my Savior, my Master, and my Lord.   Amen




If you have prayed this simple prayer, find someone you trust in the Christian community.  Look for a Bible-Christian Church denomination.   They will guide you in your new life with Our Lord.



Jesus loves you

Do you agree that you are a sinner?  Do you feel hopelessly lost without a saviour?  Do you believe God sent His Son to die for your sins? Do you accept His death as payment in full for your sins?  If you answer yes to these questions…tell it to Jesus… ask for His forgiveness and God will send His Holy Spirit… His seal is in you for eternity.  You are now a son of God and at one with Him, (John 17:20-21).  Son of God is a title given to all men and women believers.
