How can I be
in a relationship with God?
What are the things you need to be in a relationship with God?
To be a good human being? To do good deeds so that God accepts you? Rather nothing of the sort. God has shown in the Bible how we can come to know Him and be in relationship with Him.
The following steps will show you how you can begin a relationship with God now.
Law 1: God loves you and has a wonderful plan for your life
God loves us and wants us to live a different life.. A life with meaning and purpose.. He is our Creator and He loves us.. Just as we love our children, not because of their successes or deeds, but we love them because they are from our loins.. Even if they fail, we will continue to love them.. If we were human beings We can love in this way, so imagine God whose love for us is unlimited. .. You, as human beings, are desired by God, and the most important thing for him is that you know him, be in a relationship with him, and give him your life in order to make it fruitful and meaningful and according to his goal .. But you may ask yourself a question and say: If God loves me so much, why Can't I feel his love? And why do I find life difficult? The second law will answer these questions
The second law: Because man is sinful and separated from God, he cannot know and experience God's love and plan for his life.
As we said in the first law, God loves us and has a wonderful plan for our lives, but unfortunately we do not experience this love and we do not live His plan for our lives.. Rather, more than that, we often do not care much about our relationship with God, but our focus in life is on matter. Relationships, the future, and many other things.. So we began to search for the meaning of our lives far from God.. Rather, each one of us led himself by himself and lived as he wished, not caring about God’s laws or His holiness.. So we broke God’s laws and committed sins And sins, and none of us could exonerate himself before our Creator. The result was that we lost the glory of God, separated from Him, and became guilty before Him. Sin destroyed our relationship with Him and made us live far from Him. As the Bible says, “Your iniquities became a separation between you and your God, and your sins have hidden His face from you, so that He will not hear.”
Is there a solution to the problem of our sins that created a wall between us and God? The third law will answer this question
Third Law: Jesus Christ is the only way for man to reach God, and only through Him can you know and experience God's love and plan for your life.
Despite our sins, God still loves us... However, the problem is that we cannot return to God with our good deeds and efforts.. Because no matter what our actions are, we cannot be holy and we will continue to sin.. That is why the Bible said: "We have all become unclean, And all the deeds of our righteousness became like a filthy garment, so we withered like leaves on a tree, and our iniquities carried us like the wind.”
And since God loves us, he must have a solution..and the solution lies in the fact that God came to our world and incarnated in Jesus Christ..and Christ lived among us as human beings, but he never committed a sin or broke a divine law..He came with the aim of being the solution..because he is on The cross took all our sins and considered Himself the perpetrator of them.. He was considered a sinner, even though He never committed a sin, so that we may be considered as righteous as Him.. With the fullness of His will, He chose to save us by giving us His good deeds and taking away all our sins.. As the Bible says: “For He made Him who did not know A sin, a sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.” .. And after he took all our sins, he was punished and took our death.. You and I should have been punished as a result of our sins and sins, except that he was punished in our place in order to absolve us and show us the extent of his love for us and repent for our previous actions.. For this reason, the Bible said: “But God proved it to us His love, while we were still sinners, Christ died in our stead. So then, just as one transgression brought condemnation on all men, so the righteousness of one brings justification for one. lead to life for all mankind.” Thus, Christ gave a solution for us to be able to be in a relationship with God, because He took away all our sins that were a barrier between us and Him. He took our punishment so that we would become righteous.. However, the death of Christ was not the end, but He rose from the dead to be a testimony of His sincerity.. so we became able to accept this. The solution is to test God’s love for our lives and to be in a strong relationship with Him if we repent and choose to imitate Jesus Christ.
Part Four: Each of us should accept the Lord Jesus Christ as a personal Savior of his life so that you can know and experience God's love and plan for your life.
God did everything to save us and to show us the extent of His love for us so that we would be in His relationship with Him.. When every person accepts this solution by believing and believing in the salvation of Christ who was crucified and rose for us and puts his trust in Him then only we can experience His love for us and live The life he wants us to live.. Practically, this happens by believing in Him as a Savior, asking forgiveness from God, accepting Christ and giving our lives to Him so that He may reign over our hearts and teach us.. Christ said: “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” For this reason, we can not only be mentally convinced of Christ’s teachings or be emotionally affected by them, but we must fully decide, live and obey them in order for our lives to change..
