Who is a Christian
One who surrunders his/her life to the Father, Jesus Christ and Holy Spirit.
|
One who is saved : that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. Romans:10.9
|
One who denies himself and follows Christ : Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me. Matt.16.24, [Mark: 8.34], [Luke:9.23]
|
One who abides in Christ : Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me. I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing. John 15: 4, 5.
|
One who believes in Christ and lives a life of love : And this is His commandment: that we should believe on the name of His Son Jesus Christ and love one another, as He gave us commandment. I John 3.23
A Christian is a born again, saved person, who denies himself and follows Jesus Christ and abides in Christ and in the process, is transformed into the likeness of Christ. A Christian is one who desires to obey and do God's will and depends on God for every need.
