How does one come to Christ?

Answer 1

Receive Jesus
“But to all who did receive Him [Jesus], who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God” (John 1:12).

This passage clearly explains how to become God’s child. We must receive Jesus by believing in Him. What must we believe about Jesus?

First, we must recognize that Jesus is the eternal Son of God who became man. Born through the power of the Holy Spirit by the virgin Mary, Jesus did not inherit Adam’s sin nature. Therefore, He is called the second Adam (1 Corinthians 15:22). While Adam’s one disobedience brought the curse of sin on the world, Christ’s perfect life can cover our sinful ones. Our response must be to repent (turn from sin), trusting His perfect life to purify us.

Second, we must have faith in Jesus as Savior. God’s plan was to sacrifice His perfect Son on the cross to pay the punishment we deserve for our sin: death. Christ’s death frees those who receive Him from the penalty and power of sin.

Finally, we must follow Jesus as Lord. After raising up Christ as the Victor over sin and death, God gave Him all authority (Ephesians 1:20-23). Jesus leads all who receive Him; He will judge all who reject Him (Acts 10:42).

By God’s grace giving us repentance and faith in the Savior and Lord, we’re born again to new life as God’s child. Only those who receive Jesus—not merely knowing about Him but relying on Him for salvation, submitting to Him as Master, and loving Him as the supreme treasure—become God’s child.

Answer 2

Romans 3:23 ...For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.
Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
John 3;3 Jesus answered and said unto him,"Most assuredly I say unto you,unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God."
John 3:17-21 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. He who believes in Him is not condemned; but him who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light because their deeds were evil. For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have everlasting life.
Romans 10:9-11 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in your heart that God that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouthconfession is made unto salvation.For the Scripture says,"whosever believes on Him will not be put to shame."


Confess your sins and turn from them.
Ask Jesus to forgive your sin and to come into your heart and be your Lord and Savior.
If you do that and mean it, He will. Old things will pass away and all things will become new. You will be a born again, new creation. God bless!!

Answer 3

Pray the sinners prayer.

Heavenly Father:..........................................................................
I come to you in prayer asking for the forgiveness of
my Sins. I confess with my mouth and believe with my
heart that Jesus is your Son, And that he died on the
Cross at Calvary that I might be forgiven and have
Eternal Life in the Kingdom of Heaven. Father, I believe
that Jesus rose from the dead and I ask you right now
to come in to my life and be my personal Lord and
Savior. I repent of my Sins and will Worship you all the
day's of my Life!. Because your word is truth, I confess
with my mouth that I am Born Again and Cleansed
by the Blood of Jesus! In Jesus Name, Amen.

You have to mean it though... This is not a recital that gets you a free ticket to the show. You have to pray it, mean it, and then let it change your life.

Answer 4

Believe in your heart that Christ died on the cross for your sins, and that he rose again ; become baptized to demonstrate your faith and you are saved for all time! Reading the Bible and regular church attendance are ways to grow in faith and joy.

Answer 5

The only way to come to Christ is through faith in Him and through repentence of sin. Christ said, in Luke 5:32 "I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance." We cannot come to Christ through our good works. He made that plain over and over again. Coming to Christ is simply understanding that we in ourselves can do nothing to gain salvation, that it is only through faith in His death on the cross that brings us salvation. Romans 10:9-11 says "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." Salvation is just a matter of asking God to forgive you of your sins and asking Him to save you through Christ.
I would be a good idea to get a KJV Bible and to read the book of John. That is where Christ talked the most about how to come to Him.

John 1:12 "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:"

John 3:3 "Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."

I hope that this helps."
