Okay, So I'm Saved...NOW what?

"And everyone who calls
on the name of the Lord will be saved."
Acts 2:21
 
 
Okay, so I'm Saved.....NOW what?
 
"Peter replied, "Repent and be baptized,
every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ
for the forgiveness of your sins.  And you will
receive the gift of the Holy Spirit."
Acts 2:38-39
 
  Webster's defines the word 'sin':
1.  the willful breaking of religious or moral law
2.  any offense or fault.
 
Webster's defines the word 'repent':
1.  to feel sorry for (a sin, error, etc.)
2.  to feel such regret over (an action,
intention, etc.) as to change one's mind.
 
 
Take a moment to review your actions....
what things do you do that you KNOW are sins?
 
We will now lift your sins up to the Lord.  Pray the following prayer out loud:
"Heavenly Father, I confess that I have
sinned against You, and to the best of my
current ability, I repent of these sins,
I ask You in the name of Jesus Christ,
forgive me, Father.  In Jesus' name I pray.  Amen"
 
  KNOW THIS
 
"If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves
and the truth is not in us.  If we confess our sins,
he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins
and purify us from all unrighteousness."
1 John 1:8-9
 
Your sins are now forgiven.  The slate is clean.
From this moment on, when you stumble
and sin, confess that sin to God, and ask
Him to forgive you.  The Lord doesn't let
sin stand between you and He, don't YOU
let sin stand between He and you.
 


Doesn't it feel wonderful to be reconciled
to God, and forgiven for all of your sins?
Hallelujah!!!
 
 
God bless you, my dear friend in Jesus. :)
