From the beginning, God knew you and desired a relationship with you. As a result of sin, we became separated from Him. However, because of His great love for us, God provided a way back through the sacrifice of His son Jesus, when He died on the cross.
The Bible tells us the way to be saved in Romans 10. Romans 10:9-10: If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God, and it is by confessing with your mouth that you are saved.
Once you have made a commitment to follow Jesus, the next step is to tell someone who can help you get a good start in your new life. This could be a parent, mentor, leader, or pastor with which you are connected. If you don’t have someone, please contact info@empoweredlifechurch.org and we can connect you with someone to help you in your journey. Another step in your journey is to be water baptized.
Water baptism is an act of obedience that symbolizes the washing away of our sins and the death of our old sin nature. We generally celebrate baptisms during our worship service and encourage people to invite their family and friends to celebrate with them.
