Hi Tammy:

This is not an exhaustive explaination of what a Christian is, but I hope it will be of help to you.

Basically a Chritian is someone who accepts Jesus Christ as their personal Savior and strives to becoming like Christ.

Acknowleging your need for a Savior by:

AGREE that you have sinned. (Romans 3:23; Psalm 51:5; Genesis 6:5; Ecclesiastes 7:20)

ADMIT you cannot save yourself. (Romans 3:20, 28; Galatians 2:16; 3:11; Isaiah 59:2; 64:6; Romans 6:23; James 1:15)

ACCEPT Jesus Christ. (John 3:16; 6:44; 14:6; 2 Corinthians 5:21; 9:15; 1 John 3:1-2; Romans 5:6, 8; 1 Corinthians 15:3-4)


Then, BECOME like Jesus. (1 Corinthians 11:1; Luke 9:23; 14:26; Matthew 20:28; John 8:29 cf. 2 Corinthians 5:9)

Daily BIBLE reading. (Joshua 1:8; Psalm 1:1-3; Acts 17:11; John 17:17)

Pray to God daily. (1 Thessalonians 5:16; Ephesians 6:18; Psalm 55:17; Philippians 4:6-7; 1 Timothy 4:4-5)

Fellowship (gather with other believers) Hebrews 10:24-25; Romans 12:5; Ephesians 4:25; Acts 14:27; 1 Corinthians 12:13, 18, 25-27; Isaiah 56:7 cf. Matthew 21:13; Acts 2:42-47; 1 Corinthians 1:10; Colossians 2:19

Psalm 119:46; Matthew 10:32-33 cf. Luke 12:8-9; Luke 9:23; John 1:6-8; Luke 14:26-27; 2 Timothy 1:8; 1 John 4:15; John 15:26-27; 16:13-14; 1 Samuel 2:30; Revelation 3:5

There is so much more, but this is a start. God Bless!!! Eva
