Day 12-What you believe

I believe that Jesus Christ died for us to take on the sins of the world, because without him, we are not good enough to reach God. He showers His mercy, love, and grace on us if we believe in His Son.
I believe that true belief in Jesus Christ causes a transformation of the heart in two really big ways:
(1) One will repent from their sins
(2) Obedience to God increases...this means spending more time with God reading His Word, praying, and listening. It also involves doing things for His kingdom like helping and loving others, and sharing His story.

I don't think doing these deeds gets us to heaven, but that the deeds will just begin happening as the above transformation takes place, with true faith.

I also believe in the Bible, wholly and completely...the true Word of God.

It's hard to sum up beliefs in a few little statements, but that's what I think, generally!
