How to get saved. Being born again. Becoming a Christian.
Salvation is a free gift from God through his son Jesus Christ and it's availible for everyone, regardless of who you are. Salvation is given to those who believe in God's son Jesus Christ, confesses him as lord and is baptized. Since we all sin, more or less we can't earn salvation through our good works. Salvation means eternal life in paradise with God and is a gift to recieve for those who believe. It's because of Jesus's sacrifice on the cross and God's love and mercy that we can be saved and get eternal life. Jesus died and took the punishment for our sins. But Jesus resurrected and defeated death. Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He lives today.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
John 3:16
There is a meaning of life. God has created us, He loves us.
God created us humans in His image to be like him, to be his beloved friends and to enjoy life in the wonderful creation he has made. The Bible say that we humans is the crown of the creation. God wants friendship with you! You are very precious to God. God loves you.
Love consists in this: not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
1 John 4:10
Why do we need salvation? Why do we need Jesus?
For all have sinned, and have lost the glory of God; Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
Whom God has set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believes in Jesus.
Romans 3:23-26
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Romans 6:23
We are saved through faith Jesus Christ
Gud loves us even when we are sinners and our fellowship with God is assured by God's initiative.
God wants to forgive our sins and this is possible because of His son Jesus Christ, that he freely sacrified himself in our place. You can be forgiven even if you have done all kinds of things, serious crimes. Jesus Christ, God's holy sacrificial lamb, God's son died by crucifixion and took the punishment for our sins. Jesus defeated death and resurrected. His life and victory lasts forever. We are saved by faith in Jesus Christ.
Indeed, under the law almost everything is purified with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of sins.
Hebrews 9:22

You must be born again and be baptised
To be baptized and born again means that you are a new creation with eternal life in Jesus Christ through the mercy and faith in him. You have Jesus Christ as your lord, savior, master, God and idol and you want to live after His commandments, and his ideals. The old sinful man has died and a new human is born, A human with eternal life! Confess your sins to God and repent of your sins, turn away from sin. As Jesus said: Go and sin no more.
Jesus answered and said to him, Truly, truly, I say to you, Unless a man is born again, he can't see the kingdom of God.
John 3:3
Do you want to be saved? Become a Christian? Say a prayer of intercession
Pray this simple honest prayer: Jesus I receive you now in my heart and confess you as my Lord and savior. I believe God raised you from the dead. I repent of my sins and ask for forgiveness for all my sins. Thank you that I am now saved.
So there, now you have started the walk on the path of salvation. You now belong to God's family and are a child of God. Jesus also wants you to be baptized in the name of the Father, the Son (Jesus Christ) and the Holy Spirit.
Jesus answered, Truly, truly, I say to you, Unless a man is born of water and of the Spirit, he can't enter into the kingdom of God.

Confess Jesus as your Lord
If you confess Jesus as your Lord you admit that he has the right to rule over you. You say that he is your master. A natural consequence of this is that you live according to his teachings. Otherwise Jesus is not your Lord. Otherwise you yourself is your own Lord. I can't think of anything better than to be friends with God's own son. I absolutely say YES! to Jesus. Yes Lord!

This is the first and great commandment.
And the second is like it, You shall love your neighbour as yourself.
Matthew 22:37-40
God will come into your life
I have left a sinful life behind me. I now live for Jesus. The latest year I have felt His presence in my life. I get practical help in my daily life. I say morning prayer and evening prayer and go and chat with God a little from time to time during the day. I read the Bible every week, almost every day. God has helped me to overcome my daily sins I used to do. And if I fall, I ask God for forgiveness and help and He gets me up on my feet again.
This is true: He gives me daily help, I know this. I have seen it. Through faith in Jesus Christ I'm born again. Thank God! All glory to God the Father, Jesus Christ his Son and the Holy Spirit.

About the baptism
Baptism is very important but the robber that was crucified together with Jesus was not baptized, yet he got saved. God is mercyful. He is also holy.
