dmit your own unworthiness when compared to such a holy and righteous God.  After our ancestor Adam, ALL of us have chosen the path of sin (Romans 3:23, 5:12-14), and our guilt separates us from the close fellowship our Creator desires. 

llow God's Spirit to melt away your pride and soften your hardened heart, as you turn away from The sins you once cherished (Hebrews 3:7-15, 2 Corinthians 7:10). 

elieve that Jesus is God's Son, who came to this earth so that by his sacrificial death and amazing resurrection from the grave he could take the punishment that our sins deserved (Isaiah 53:4-12, Romans 3:22-26) and guarantee our own victory over sin and death (Hebrews 2:14-18, John 3:14-16). 

oldly let others know that you are now a believer and wish to take your stand with Jesus (1 Timothy 6:11-16, Matthew 16:13-18, Romans 10:9-10). 

e immersed in water so that the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus might become a reality in your own life, as you are born anew into God's spiritual family and become a new creation in Christ (Mark 15:15-16, Galatians 3:26-29, Romans 6:3-7). 

onnect with the larger body of believers, the church into which God has now placed you, so that you can grow spiritually through teaching, fellowship, service, and accountability to your other brothers and sisters and to the leaders of the local flock (Acts 2:41-47, 1 Thessalonians 5:12-15, Hebrews 10:23-25).

elebrate your new spiritual status by joining your fellow Christians in a weekly memorial to the source of your salvation, the death of your Lord, by participating in the Supper he established (Luke 22:19-20, 1 Corinthians 10:16-17 & 11:23-26).

ontinue to grow in your family by allowing the Spirit to strengthen and lead you (Galatians 5:16-26, Romans 8:1-17), by sharing your faith with others (Philemon 6, Matthew 10:32-33), and by discovering ways to use your God-given gifts to serve others and bring praise to the Lord (Romans 12:1-8, 1 Peter 4:8-11).
