I was post number 1001, so I was the last post on the thread , okay ?
well you don't have that many more than me, so behave nowIt says you only have 328 posts..
yeah i don't know how well that would work. I want people to read it though, and it is the gospelMay this thread become a new book in the Bible, I know the Vatican is thinking of canonizing the "Do you want to become a Christian????" thread in the Bible.
http://www.christianforums.com/t7701437-4/#post61788643Hello.. Today I am going to tell you the gospel of salvation, and tell you how you can become a christian and go to heaven.
The Gospel is as said in first Corinthians 15 verses three and four. That Jesus the son of God, died on the cross for your sins and that if you were the only person alive on the planet, Jesus would still have died for you because he loves you so much, so that you can be saved from hell and go to heaven. Now after Jesus died on the cross he was buried in a tomb and the third day he was risen from the dead by God the father. So will you accept the free pardon from your sins and the free gift of eternal life. Will you accept it by saying out loud the prayer of salvation or the sinners prayer? Remember the publican in the bible prayed a version of the sinners prayer, and Jesus said he was saved. Now also you can't say it without believing because the bible says in Romans 10:14 how can you call on him whom you have not believed. So that means you have to believe in order to say the prayer of salvation. So if you want to go to heaven just repeat this prayer after me, say it out loud now. Just say Lord Jesus I know I am a sinner I know I can not save myself I believe you died on the cross for me, I ask you to come into my heart and save me now, I accept you now as my personal Lord, and savior, I ask you to forgive me of my sins, I repent of my sins I call upon your name Jesus, I confess that you Jesus are Lord, in Jesus name I pray amen.. now if you just said this prayer and believed then you are saved and are going to heaven, and are now a christian.

Is it that simple? I don't have to live my life with faith or make Jesus Lord of my life? Just say a few simple words and bang, I'm going to heaven? Sweet deal. Maybe I'll do this on my way to my Baha'i service.
I believe that Christianity does not begin with words or even prayer. It begins with faith brought about by a willingness to listen to the calling of the Holy Spirit in us/our lives. We cannot begin to pray unless we have some measure of faith. (1 Cor. 12:3) We are saved by grace through faith. (Ephesians 2:8, John 3:16) That (saving) faith is alive in works, which goes beyond saying a few words. (Mark 16:16, James 2:17) God has given us instructions on how we are to live, but I do not recall the sinner's prayer in the Bible. In fact, in Luke 23, we see a man who did not utter such a prayer, but rather simply uttering in faith to be remembered when Jesus/Yeshua comes into His kingdom-something far shorter than the Sinner's prayer by still demonstrates faith. (Luke 23:39-43) The Sinner's Prayer seems like an overly formulaic way of synopsizing the Gospel, and I've seen it used in a way that put's the work of the Spirit in a man-made box.
