can I become "saved"?
What Next?
You
have been purchased by the blood of Jesus Christ. You have
value! It was ‘on purpose’ that God picked
you and, through the redemption of Jesus Christ, called
you to be sons and daughters of God1. Discover
who you are in Christ2. God has a purpose for
you3 and
has provided you, His child, with the means (by the power
of the Holy Spirit4 and His Word5)
to live a life
of holiness, free from the power of sin6.
We
strongly urge you to attend a church where Jesus Christ
is honored and His Holy Spirit is manifest7; Where you can
be encouraged8 and strengthened in your walk with God, and
be established in your faith9.
As you spend time with God in prayer and in the studying
of His Word (the Bible), you will discover a new way
of thinking and living – God’s way10.
