How to be
born again
I. God’s
Part.
(1) Jesus
Christ died in your place and for your sins so that you can be
forgiven
and receive that new life. I Cor. 15:3; Isa. 53:5,6,12; Gal. 3:13;
Heb. 2:9; I
Pet. 3:18; Heb. 9:28; I Pet. 2:24; Rom. 5:8.

sins. Heb. 10:16,17; I John 1:9; Isa. 55:7; Isa. 43:25; Isa. 44:22,1:18.
(3) Give
Spiritual Life. Eph. 2:1,5; I John 5:11 13; St. John 3:1-7.
II. Your
Part.
(1) Choose
the way of Jesus instead of the way of Satan;
choose to
call on the Lord for salvation. Choose whom you will serve. Josh.
24:15; Rom.
10:13.
(2) Believe
on the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Absolute trust. John
3:16-18;
John 8:24; I John 5:10.
(3) Receive
Him. John 1:12.
(4) Repent.
(Be sorry for your sins - confess them - leave them.) Acts 3:19;
Acts 2:38;
Luke 13:5.
(5) Confess
Christ openly. Rom. 10:9-10.
(6) Be
Baptized. Acts 2:38; Mark 16:15; Matt. 28:19.
