Unreligious/Atheist curious about Christianity
How does everyone come to Christ? How did you? I've been an atheist (unreligious) all my life, and recently started thinking about Christianity. I would like to hear how it’s impacting your life and how you knew it was the correct choice to convert.
A: It is the right choice, because it IS the right thing to do. That becomes clear from understanding the Bible. God gave us this special revelation to know Him, understand the problem and solution...and to take action.
We are sinners in a fallen world. Sin entered because Adam sinned (and all humans are born from our ancestor Adam, so all inheirited the sin nature). God provided a way for us to be redeemed from the curse, the Law of sin and death, by way of Jesus as our redeemer/Savior. By Him we have forgiveness and right standing with God, and live in life and freedom in the Law of Christ.
God commands us all to repent and trust in Jesus because he appointed a day for judgment against sin. He wants us to flee to Christ. Jesus said we must be born again, and to do that we must "Repent & believe the Gospel." Mark 1:15
⭐For our testimony...
Everyone comes to Christ "through the Gospel."
A born again believers Testimony will simply say how they were living in sin by their sin nature, how at one point God brought the realization of their sin and guilt by the Law, and how it led them to Christ in the Gospel. It will also share how God radically transformed them at the moment of salvation, as well as how their life is now [growing in holiness and sanctification].
Have you ever heard the Gospel? NeedGod.com video explains very simply.
If you have other questions you can get them answered after you get saved. We all continue to have difficulties and clarified as we learn and grow in the faith, so getting right with God is 1st priority. The rest will work itself out in time.
Make Psalm 51 your prayer to God. Then go Read Romans, John, Mark, and Ephesians. You can read Scripture cover to cover after that. Read here
