How to begin a relationship with Jesus Christ

What are the actual steps to become a believer?

a. Confess you are a sinner. This is an important part of recognizing our and God's relationship. God will forgive us our sins if we recognize that we are a sinner and willing to confess that to him. Confessing can be as simple as saying, "Lord, I am a sinner."

b. Ask for forgiveness for our sins. Again no special words but you could say something like, "Lord, I ask that you forgive me of my sins."

c. Ask Jesus to come into your life and be your savior. It's like opening a door and asking Jesus to come in and be your savior. In your prayer you might say something like, "Jesus, I want you to come into my life and be my savior. I want to go to heaven, and I trust you and place my faith in you."

d. When you talk to God you are praying. Here is a prayer asking Jesus to come into your life.

Jesus, I admit that I am a sinner, and I choose to turn from my sin right now. I am thankful that you are my Savior. I believe you can forgive my sin and make me a new person. I commit myself into your hands. Please come into my heart and give me the eternal life you promised. Amen
