If you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved.-Romans 10:9-10
You have been invited on a journey.
God has been beckoning you to Himself since the moment you were born. God wants you to KNOW Him like He knows you - the Scripture tells us that God knows the number of hairs on our head and keeps every tear that we cry. God wants to know you so badly that He sent His Son - Jesus Christ - to reconcile you to the One True God.
Jesus Christ is the Author and Redeemer of the world. He - fully God and fully human - humbled Himself and came to earth to live and experience life and death so that He could free us from the bondage of fear, sin, and death. Christ's pathway to the cross was intentional for the purpose of giving you and the entire world LIFE - life in the full! When He chose that path, died, and rose from the dead the third day, He conquered death for eternity. If you confess with your mouth, as Romans 10 states, and believe in your heart that Jesus is Lord and that He rose from the dead for YOU and for your salvation, you will have begun this journey of faith in Christ. Ultimately, being a Christian is about a relationship with God through Jesus Christ and walking this journey with Him.
The journey is not for the faint of heart…there will be difficult days - becoming a follower of Christ does not exempt you from the hurts and difficulties of life. But it does SUSTAIN you and ENCOURAGE you so that even on the darkest of days, you are full of Hope because of your relationship with Christ. Our prayer for you is that you choose to walk with Christ and experience the Hope, Peace, Love, Discipleship, and Joy that only God can bring to your life.
If you would like to know more about Jesus and how to embark on this exciting and magnificent journey, please call our church office: 206.542.2111 and ask to speak with a pastor who would be happy to meet with you, pray with you, and answer any questions you might have.
May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. -Romans 15:13
