The Joy of Knowing Jesus Christ



  1. There is a GOD, creator of all things--living and nonliving.
    • So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. Genesis 1:27.
    • Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. John 1:3.
  2. In the beginning all things created were in perfect relationship with GOD'S way.
    • As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the LORD is flawless. He is a shield for all who take refuge in him. II Samuel 22:31.
  3. The first man, Adam, chose another way and destroyed this perfect relationship.
    • Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all men, because all sinned. Romans 5:12.
  4. GOD desired a way to restore the original relationship because He loved man.
    • This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. I John 4:9-10.
    • For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16.
  5. He has given the way.
    • Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. Romans 8:1.
  6. THE WAY is JESUS.
    • Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. John 14:6.
  7. Now through JESUS each man can choose THE WAY and restore the Perfect Relationship with GOD for himself.
    • That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. Romans 10:9-10.

Now: If you desire the perfect relationship with God and will receive Christ as your Savior and Lord, simply pray this prayer from your heart...

Dear Lord Jesus, I recognize that I have sinned, and I desire a perfect relationship with God. I now repent (turn away) from my sin. I do, now, ask you to forgive me of my sins and come into my heart as my Savior and Lord. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

If you prayed that from your heart and meant it, Jesus is now in your heart; your place in Heaven is assured (eternal life begins right now), and there is rejoicing among the angels in Heaven right now.
You are saved, friend!

First, find a good Bible-believing church where Christ is preached. You should be baptized, not to be saved, but out of obedience to Jesus and as a public witness of the new life you have. Now, Christ is beginning a work in you that will open your eyes to God's perfect will in your life for your blessing and joy. Share this news with Christian friends who can counsel you, and e-mail us too and we will send you some literature. Praise God!!!
