i heard that if you recite it and believe in Jesus as your Savior, you would be saved. i doubt it's even Biblical.

psalm 23 is the "sinner's prayer"? i don't think you know what you're talking about.

It's a false tradition of men set up by Protestants in opposition to the authentic Catholic sacrament of baptism.
Baptism was instituted and mandated by Jesus Christ.
The sinner's prayer is theoretical, totally unbiblical, and is an invention of the Protestant reformers.
Baptism is necessary for salvation, and remains the only certain and legitimate way to become an adopted child of God, a temple of the Holy Spirit, co-heir with Jesus, and a member of the church.

Psalm 23

It is the pray of a sinners. Like u and me.
Years ago, during the large evangelical convention days, where hundreds of thousand of people went to stadium to listen to preacher preach, and accepted Jesus.
But when they do so, someone had to do the followup work. To make matters easy, the counsellor will be trained to memoised a standard pray as a guide to the new believer. That is commonly called sinner's pray.
But coming to Jesus need not have standard sinner's pray. It is ok to have one, ok not to have it.
Is it clear to you?

Death is inevitable. The thief on the cross knew when his would occur, but we can not predict our own. After his death, the crucified criminal went to live in paradise with Jesus. Some of us will also live eternally in God's presence. But others will experience everlasting torment, forever separated from Him.
If we receive Jesus as our Savior, our penalty for sin is paid. We are adopted into God's family, and Heaven is our eternal home. If we reject Jesus, we remain alienated from the Lord and under condemnation for our sin. We are destined to experience eternal judgment. God won't accept any of man's excuses because there is no acceptable defense for unbelief. (Acts 4:12)
Become part of God's family today. Acknowledge your sinfulness, and express your faith in these words:
"God, I have sinned against You. (Romans 3:23) I've followed my own way and refused to give You the right to rule in my life. (Romans 3:10-12) I recognize I am separated from You and cannot rescue myself. I do believe that Jesus Christ is Your Son. I accept the truth of the Scriptures? that His death on the cross paid my sin-debt in full. (1 Corinthians 15:3-4) And I ask You to forgive me of my sins. (1 John 1:9) By faith, I receive You, Lord Jesus, as my personal Savior from this moment on."
If you just spoke those words to God, then, like the thief on the cross, you have received salvation? a gift of God's grace. The heavenly Father welcomes every person who comes to Him through His Son, regardless of background, age, or current situation. Through Jesus, the right to enter paradise is yours!

The Lord Jesus taught the disciples this prayer, Our father which art in heaven hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil, for thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory forever Amen.

I know a lot of people are taught that but it is only the first step to being christian. I do not know it of patt but basically it is saying sorry for your sin and thank you to Jesus for dieing for you, paying the price. and finaly that you accept him as saviour and wont him in your life. but being christian realy means giving your life to him not just accepting him as lord. and you must be genuin just saying it and carrying on your old life means nothing.

We all sin. Just tell God in plain English that you understand that you've sinned and that you open yourself to his love. It's Pretty easy.
