WHY I CHOOSE TO BE A CHRISTIAN

I have been a Christian for 11 years. Why do I choose to be one? There are a lot of reasons why I follow Jesus. Here are some of them:


1: Jesus died for EVERYONE, we are all sinners.
2: By trusting in Him, my sins are forgiven.
3: Because my sins are forgiven , I will have eternal life and be in Heaven.
4: Without Jesus, I would be on the way to Hell.
5: He loves me more than any human could.
6: His plan for my life is a lot better then what I could design.
7: When you pray, he hears you, and listens without any preconcieved notions.

I was not forced into Christianity. God spoke to my heart and said “come to me.”

When I was a kid, I did not believe in God. I figured “If there is a God, why isn't he helping me when
I'm being tortured and picked on in school? If he does exist, he must not think much of me.” When I became a believer, it became clear to me that He allowed it to happen so that I would trust in Him. It took me a long time for that to sink in, but it was for the best, and has made me a stronger person.
