BEST NEWS EVER

 

A Christian is simply someone who has got to the bottom of each of these headline stories - and it has changed them.

 

A Christian is someone who has come to believe:

(i.e. to trust Christ to save him)

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life – John 3:16

 

A Christian is someone who has come to repent:

(i.e. to turn away from sins)

Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, so that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord – Acts 3:19

 

A Christian is someone for whom Jesus Christ is Lord: (i.e. to make Jesus the Boss of his life)

If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved – Romans 10:9
