How to Be Born Again

Step-by-Step Guide

1. 1

   Step 1: Believe there is the Jehovah/God: but that alone is only a starting point... "You believe that there is one God; you do well -- the Devils believe and tremble..." (James 2:19) Check into that...

   Respect God: "The fear (respect) of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge..." (Proverbs 1:7), "He that believes and is baptized shall be saved, and he that disbelieves shall be condemned." (Mark 16:16) You must believe in Jesus Christ.
   
   You can be baptized either way.
   
   But, you are not saved, if you don't have faith in Jesus Christ.
   
   In John 14:6 Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life.
   
   No one comes to the Father except through me..."
   
   (John 3:7)Jesus said, "I tell you... unless you repent: you shall all likewise perish." (Luke 13:5),, So, if you are saved, converted from your old life, "reborn spiritually"
   
   then you have received the Holy Spirit as Jesus said: "But I tell you the truth, it is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him to you." (John 16:7)The Holy Spirit is as Jesus promised
   -- "... a comforter to abide with you forever..." who shall help understanding and remembering the things of God
   -- and "You shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be My witnesses to Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria and to the remotest part of the earth" (Acts 1:8) , "And, Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of His."
   
   And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and yet it did not fall, for it had been founded on the rock." (Matthew 7:24-25)Be a fisher-of-man: as Jesus said, "Follow me and I will make you a fisher of men'..."
   
   to Simon Peter, and also "Have no fear; from this time forward you will be a 'fisher of men'." (Luke 5:10)Proclaim the good news in order to win souls as Jesus said to them, "Go into all the world, and proclaim the good news (gospel) ." (Mark 16:15),,"(Proverbs 11:30) Add those souls to God's kingdom: "All who were saved were added to the church daily." (Acts 2:47)Agree in faith as a Christian to be of one mind in the Body of Christ and agree to the same attitude that Christ Jesus had: "Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:" (Philippians 2:5) , So, agree with Christ and live His way and be blessed. , You are not your own..." (1 Corinthians 6:19) The gift of the indwelling Holy Spirit is as 'Helper,' 'Guide,' 'Comforter,' 'Counselor,' 'Supporter,' 'Spirit of Christ,' 'Spirit of Truth,' 'Spirit of Grace,' 'Spirit of God Almighty,' 'Spirit of God,' 'Holy Breath,' 'Almighty Breath,' and 'Giver of Life.'
   
   , Repent
   - say and mean it that you want to change
   -- saying something similar to: "I am sorry for my sin, all my wrong doing; I want to change my mind, my life, and I truly thank you for your gift of The Holy Spirit and for everything you, Lord, have done, and that I am now forgiven and saved from the penalty for my sins as a free gift, in Jesus' name."
