CHRISTIANITY, THE
A Christian is a believer in Christ
that has repented and been baptized for remission of sins. "Then Peter said to them, 'Repent, and
let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission
of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit." (Acts
Christianity is the better way because it
means salvation. Jesus said, "I am the door. If anyone enters by Me,
he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture." (John 10:9)
Christianity is the better way because it
rids us of our old sinful life. Paul wrote, "Therefore, if anyone
is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all
things have become new." (2 Corinthians 5:17)
Christianity is the better way because God
can work through the life of a Christian. The Bible says, "Now to
Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according
to the power that works in us." (Ephesians 3:20)
Christianity is the better way because
Christians enjoy the peace of God. Jesus said, "Peace I leave with
you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth,
give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled,
neither let it be afraid.” (John 14:27)
You will not be sorry for becoming a
Christian or for living the Christian life.
It is better for now and forever. Christians are the real winners. Those
that reject Christianity are the losers now and in eternity.
You must obey the gospel to be
saved. (Mark 16:15-16) The Lord adds the
saved to the church. (Acts
