How One Becomes a Follower of Jesus - Nothing is more important than a decision to follow Jesus.

A final thought to remember: "In such an hour as you think not the son of man cometh"(Mat. 24:44).

As the world falls apart all around us, we should be praying more and more, studying God's Word passionately, and sharing our resources with others. When the rapture takes place, the only items that will be raptured with you into glory are your works. Your house, car, money, and unsaved friends will remain behind.

To become a follower of Jesus Christ, you must do two things.

You must ask Jesus to be your Savior. You accomplish that by asking Him to forgive you of all your sins. When you ask Him to be your Savior and to forgive you, the request must be from the heart. You cannot just ramble off a few words and go on your merry way. At the core of every appeal for forgiveness is remorse. If you have remorse for your sinful state, you will receive God's forgiveness.
After you commit yourself in words to Jesus, you then begin to follow Him with your actions. Do this by reading His Word and implementing His teachings into your life. If He says, "Love your neighbor," then love your neighbor. If He says, "Do not commit adultery," then do not commit adultery. Do this until the day He comes for you in the rapture or until the day you join Him in death.
