| WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU PUT YOUR TRUST IN JESUS CHRIST?
IF YOU HAVE INVITED JESUS CHRIST INTO YOUR LIFE, MANY THINGS HAVE HAPPENED, INCLUDING:
1 Jesus Christ has come into your life by his spirit and he will never leave you Revelation 3:20; Hebrews 13:5
2 You have been forgiven completely Colossians 2:14
3 You have a new power in your life, enabling you to change Colossians 2:15
4 You can begin to experience life with God as he intended John 17:3; John 10:10
|
| HOW CAN YOU BE SURE ALL THIS HAS REALLY HAPPENED?
YOU CAN KNOW THAT JESUS CHRIST IS IN YOUR LIFE BECAUSE GOD HAS PROMISED AND HE CAN BE TRUSTED
'God has said that he gave us eternal life and that this life comes to us from his Son. And so, if we have God's Son, we have his life. But if we don't have the Son, we don't have this life. All of you have faith in the Son of God and I have written to let you know that you have eternal life.' 1 John 5:11-13
'Thank God often that Jesus Christ is in your life and that he will never leave you.' Romans 8:38,39
You can know that the spirit of Christ lives in you and that you have eternal life from the moment you invited Christ into you life, because this is what he has promised.

| WHAT ABOUT FEELINGS?
Do not depend on how you feel
We can always rely on God and his promises in the Bible. But we cannot always
rely on our feelings. Because of this, the Christian lives by trusting God and
what he has said through the Bible, rather than by trusting feelings, which may
come and go.
It would be impossible for the guard's van to pull the train. In the same way,
it is important to rely on God and what he has said in the Bible, and not to be
pushed around by our feelings. Just as the coal needs to be put into the engine
from the coal truck in order for the train to run, so we need to put our trust
in The Bible.

| Several coals burn brightly together; but put one aside and its fire goes out. In the same way; it is very hard to live the Christian life by yourself. Go to a church where Jesus is worshipped and the Bible is taught, and join others who have come to know God personally and are growing in their relationship with him. |
