Hi there Sarah. During the almost 50 years of serving Jesus as a Shepherd of three Baptist Churches, I have counseled quite a few folk who made decisions for Jesus, but later on were unsure of the validity of that decision.
About a month ago, I started counseling a woman in a different Forum, not CF.net, who was in the same situation. The following is what I posted for her (Name was Nai) to seek our Heavenly Father and Jesus for absolute truthful biblical Salvation.
If you follow this, you will be saved and the Holy Spirit will, in a special way, identify with you.
Ok Dear Nai. I'm so sorry that this has taken so long. My guess is that Satan doesn't want to loose you. He's got you to believe you're saved when you're not. Now I'll lead you into real biblical Holy Spirit fired Salvation by His doing, not mine.
First comes confession and repentance. I know from your recent posts that you've done a lot of confessing sins. I want to tell you about that process in the early centuries of Jesus' Churches.
The leaders (Elders) of the local church would select one Elder to spend seven days with each "seeker" who wanted to be saved. This Elder would spend up to seven days for the seeker to know beyond a shadow of a doubt about repentance from the sins that he/she had confessed. Which simply means that they will not go back and PRACTICE those sins. Occasionally they might slip and commit the sin, but not go back and make that sin an every day practice.
That is what you must determine in your heart/mind to do.
Now that you understand the confession of sin and repentance, you are ready to receive Jesus, the Son of God into your heart as your Lord Who will become your Master Owner because you are....
1Co 6:18 Flee from sexual immorality. Every other sin a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body.
1Co 6:19 Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own,
1Co 6:20 for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body."
Nai, you were bought from sin to righteous living by the shed Blood of Jesus on the cruel cross by His death and resurrection.
If you believe that Jesus, the Son of God died to save you from your sins and forgive you so that you could enter the Kingdom of God, you will be saved....
Romans 10:9 because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
10:10 For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved.
10:11 For the Scripture says, "Everyone who believes in him will not be put to shame."
10:12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, bestowing his riches on all who call on him.
10:13 For "everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."
Nai, if you have confessed your sins, and are determined not to go back into them, if you have believed in the Scriptural account of the death, burial, and resurrection of the Son of God, Jesus, and desire in your heart to receive Jesus as your Lord and Savior, YOU ARE SAVED!
Now, Jesus has come into your life....
Galatians 2:20 "I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me."
Now go from here, knowing that you are biblically saved, away from the grips of Satan, and under the power of Pentecostal power, Go forth and be not ashamed of Jesus, and represent Him to those of whom the Holy Spirit leads you too.
Go in the power of Almighty God Nai, I bless you in the Name of Jesus Christ, the Son of the living God.
Ok Dear Sister Sarah. I trust that you prayed thru this commitment to your Heavenly Father and Jesus. If you did this, as an adult, you have just been born into our wonderful Family of God, and will spend eternity with them in the New Jerusalem.
Now don't be hesitant to ask me any question that you might have about Salvation or the Scriptures. You are my new friend, and I'm here for you in Jesus Name.
In Jesus, Sarah, I Love You,
Chopper
