The fundamental requirements for becoming a Christian and of the people who were added into the church are these- one should repent and turn from old life, take baptism for the remission of sins and receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. This is how the first church was formed; which we read in the book of Acts. If you have not done all the three, you are not a believer. This teaching has not been followed in many denominations. So it is very clear people are led astray because the true Gospel is not preached to them. Do not be deceived. Read New Testament thoroughly, which God had graciously given to everyone.

Where Sin Abounded, Grace Superabounded
Human being’s hearts condemn them constantly due to sin in them and this reflects in their life style. Either they abuse themselves with alcohol, drugs and suicidal thoughts or their body punishes them with diseases, fatigue and depression in their thoughts continuously. People are trying their best to pep themselves up by entertaining themselves by occupying themselves with more work or partying with friends so that they feel better. But the root cause still stays there which other things do not remove or cannot remove.
Jesus Is Gentle & Lowly In Heart
Where are we going when we are hurt and our lives seem to be too much to bear? Are we going to the wrong sources in the world? Even your dear friends and family members or even doctors and psychiatrists are not equipped enough to deliver you or comfort you. Because they are limited in their own minds and knowledge. You need a higher authority to help you supernaturally, that is, God Himself, who is calling you and waiting for you to come to Him and learn from Him to find rest for your souls. Matthew 11:28-30.
Die To Sins Live For Righteousness
Jesus wants you to know that He had borne your sins on His own body when He was on the Cross and by the beatings He took, got rid of your diseases. For this purpose alone God sent Jesus and accomplished that victoriously. How many of us have truly believed and received these? For this only reason He came and gave Himself so that we die to sins and live for righteousness. But if you do not receive these great rewards but settle for lesser ones like house, education and family and things you need; then you are missing out big time and you are hurting the Lord God and grieving His Holy Spirit.
Just Men Made Perfect
God demonstrated at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus. Romans 3:26. Now we are justified by faith in Jesus Christ we, the just should walk in faith and should be made perfect. Hebrews 10:38. There is a growth involved to become perfect as Jesus Himself. “Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world.”I John 4:17 (NKJV)
Righteousness Apart From Law Is Revealed In Jesus
General knowledge of people in the world is that a person become righteous by keeping all good virtues strictly following the laws. Even among Christians many think that we will be righteous only if we keep all the laws and they think they are keeping all. Non-Christians think that the Christians always talk about sin and they hate us but the Christians deny that they are by birth sinful in nature; even though they know Jesus Christ came as Saviour to save the sinners. “ For there is no difference; for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,” Romans 3:23-24 (NKJV)
This Is The Will Of God -Your Sanctification
In this modern world people live according to their feelings. Their propaganda is that one should listen to how they feel about anything or anybody and walk accordingly to get happiness. This is not the way our Christian lives should be. We should live according to what the Spirit of God telling us to do and be joyful in the Lord. There is a difference between happiness and joy. Happiness is when things happen according to the way we like; but joy is from the Lord Jesus Christ and nothing or no one can give that to you.
Fleshly Minded Is Death, Spiritually Minded Is Life & Peace
People lost the concept of Born Again spiritual life. Everyone started telling they are born again without making any changes in their spiritual lives, but continue to live life according to flesh. The Word of God clearly says, you should start living in the spiritual realm if you have the Spirit of God living inside of you. Do not be deceived. Check yourself and be sincere to your conscious to know whether you are really walking in the spirit; completely surrendering to the guidance of the Holy Spirit. “The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace.” Romans 8:6 (NIV)
Hell Cannot Prevail Against The Church
We should always remember that Jesus took victory over the devil and the hell cannot come against the church and overcome. Church is the whole Body of Christ all over the world without any difference between people or denominations as Jesus, the Head. All believers unite together form the Body of Christ and hell cannot come against and we should be united in Christ Jesus. We should not be united with non-believers to form one common religion. This is popular now but very wrong. We should come together and love each other to show the world that we are the disciples of Christ Jesus only. Jesus said,“By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.”” John 13:35
The Letter Kills But The Spirit Gives Life
We should know how to divide the word of God, the Bible while reading it. The Old Testament is for the Jews: all the history and the commandments; the prophecies too that have been fulfilled and rest to happen for them to know. For the Christians it is the New Testament: the history, the commandments and the prophecies. The New Testament is not written in ink but written by the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of the heart. The letter kills, but Spirit gives life. 2 Corinthians 3:2-6.
