If you have made the decision to accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior then I would count it an Honor and a Joy to help you in your walk to get to know and learn about Jesus. What's next?
What do we do after we ask Jesus to be our Lord?
Jesus came to this earth via a virgin birth,and he died on the cross for our sins. He rose from the dead on the third day by the power of the Holy Spirit. Today Jesus sits at the right hand of the Father making intercession for us. Jesus is our eternal High Priest.
Because of all of this we can trade this life (our self will, wants and desires) and live for him by the Spirit and do what he wants us to do. Because of Jesus we can be counted in right standing with the Father and be relieved of our eternal fate of separation from the Father. This would have been our fate because of sin the penalty for sin is death, but with Jesus we will be resurrected by the same power of the Holy Spirit that gives life. This is the whole reason Jesus came to the world so that we in Him can have life more abundantly.
First here on earth where the kingdom is inside of us by the Holy Spirit and when we pass away from this earth.
Here are some key scriptures. There are many other scriptures in the bible that reveal who Jesus is and what he did for us. I personally enjoymyrelationship with Jesus. If I do not have understanding of what a scripture means or which scripture applies to my situation, I can ask the Holy Spirit and he will reveal the true meaning.
This understanding is available to every believer.
This takes out the middle manand helps us be free in Christ.To Confess Jesus as your Lord and Savior,say:
Jesus I believe what the bible says about you. Ibelieve I'm a sinner and I need to repent of my sins andand turn to God. Iaccept yourfree gift of salvation. I believe I can do nothing to earn salvation. It is a gift that only you can give. I believe you are the only way to the Father. I do repent of my sinful ways. I do accept your gift of salvation. I trade my life to follow you. Ihave more questions, so please teach me.
