steps for a young christian

     Christianity is a race, that we must run, and not just run but run and finished the race to the first place.
one thing we need to know is - "as a christian when we are born again, does not me we should do anything and the grace of God we speak for you". but the reverse is true! when you receive Jesus Christ as our lord and personal savior, you need to walk in him, building yourself daily in faith and trust in Christ.

     Daily growth in Jesus Christ is what we need.growing always in him , according [colossians 2:6-7] it says "As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him,  rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving.". don't you like this bible passage?, you know what i love this passage, now lets take a look at the sentences available there.

As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the lord. ( now this is the first step before being a christian-'Christlike', you receive him as your saviour)

so walk in him, rooted and built up in him and established in faith. (this is the next thing you should do, walking him, i.e reading his word, The Bible, praying, sharing the gospel with people. listen to the word so that you can be established in faith, because the bible says faith comes by hearing, and hearing the word of God.)

as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving. ( as you have been taught does not mean the way your teacher as taught you, or any other person but the way Jesus himself has taught you, from his word. then you abound yourself with thanksgiving, giving thanks to him all day for his salvation that he has giving to us)

FIRST STEP FOR A YOUNG CHRIST FOLLOWER

  1.  Christianity is a life to live [john 10:10]     The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. If you have receive Jesus Christ, the promise in that verse is for you, you will have life abundantly, you will not die, not fall sick, and not only that but life in abundant. 
  2. Grow in grace [2 peter 3:18] but grow in grace and in the knowledge of our lord Jesus Christ. How can we grow in grace and knowledge of Jesus Christ?
  •   by reading his word" the Bible"
  •   cultivating good christian friends 
  •   obeying the will of God   
    3. Our spiritual foes  (this has a young christian you need to know this, so has to know what you are re ally going into.
They are the "flesh" "world" "Satan"  this three things are what will want to come against you and Christ, to spoil your relationship with him. and this you need to stand in strong faith, and be rooted in the word of God. 
 
  By the grace of God we are going to talk about those three disturbing factors later, i will try and work out some article on that..
