How To Become a Christian


While we certainly would like you to become a member of our fellowship at Eagle Heights Baptist Church, it is vastly more important that we share fellowship with you in Christ. If you would like to become a Christian, or even just want to find out what Christianity is all about, please read the following section.

F - is for Forgiveness

Everyone has sinned and needs God's forgiveness.

Romans 3:23
"All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God."

God's forgiveness is in Jesus only.
Ephesians 1:7
In Him, we have redemption through His blood the forgiveness of sin."


A - is for Available.

God's forgiveness is available for all.
John 3:16
"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life."

God's forgiveness is not automatic
Matthew 7:21
"Not everyone who says to Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the Kingdom of Heaven."

I - is for Impossible.

According to the Bible, it is impossible to get to heaven on our own.
Ephesians 2:8-9
"For by grace you have been saved through faith, and not of yourselves, it is a gift of God, not of works, lest any man should boast."

So, how can a sinful person have eternal life and enter heaven?

T - is for Turn

If you were driving down the road and someone asked you to turn, what would he or she be asking you to do? (change directions)

Turn means repent
Turn away from sin and self.
Luke 13:3
"Unless you repent, you will likewise perish."

Turn to Jesus alone as your Savior and Lord
John 14:6
Jesus said, "I am the way the truth and the life, no one comes to the Father except through Me."

Here is the greatest news of all.
Romans 10:9-10
"If you will confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your hear that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."

What happens when you repent of your sins and accept Jesus Christ?

H - is for Heaven
Heaven is a place where we live with God forever.
John 14:3
"And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also."

Eternal life begins now with Jesus.
John 10:10
"I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly."

H - can also stand for How.
How can a person have God's forgiveness, eternal life and heaven?
By repenting of your sin and trusting in Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior.

Sinner's Prayer

Lord Jesus, I admit to you that I'm a sinner. I believe that you died on the cross for my sin and I believe that you rose from the dead. I repent of sin and I ask you to come into my heart and save me and forgive me from all my sin and take me to heaven when I die. Thank you for saving me, Lord Jesus. Help me to live the rest of my life for you, in Jesus Name, amen.
