The Cross is your starting point. And if you have given your life to Jesus, then you have made the right decision!

And now it continues. When you gave your life to Jesus, at that moment you (figuratively speaking) took your backpack and emptied it.

In your backpack there has been lots of trash that you don’t need anymore. And you have said, “Jesus, I give it all to you!” You handed all of that to Him. And as I’ve said, there were things in it, which you don’t need anymore (e.g. guilt, emotional wounds etc.).

What Jesus wants to do now is: He wants to fill your backpack with new things!

He would like to give you things you need, such as travelling provisions for your journey in your new life.

Here you can click on the following titles and read the articles:

• Spirit Baptism (Short Version)

• Bible (Short Version)

• Fellowship (Short Version)

• Water Baptism (Short Version)

The order of these steps is not important! You can be baptised first and then get a Bible. Or you could get a Bible first and be baptised later. Decide for yourself (also in prayer with God), what you should do first. But: All of these steps are important for following Jesus.

Another thing: These steps are not necessary for your salvation. In other words: If you have given your life to Jesus (as I explained in the first part), then you’re saved. But these steps are steps out of obedience. You should take them if you want to obey Jesus. Because He does not just simply send you on the journey, He provides your travelling provisions. These steps are to be taken on a voluntary basis, but Jesus is asking you to take them.

But you want to follow Jesus. He is the Good Shepherd, and you want to hear His voice. You want to know what plans He has for you personally (e.g. your personal calling). You want to know what He is saying about you (e.g. your identity in Him). And you want to share experiences with other Christians and, for example, ask them: “What did YOU experience with God?” or: “What does this passage of the Bible mean?” etc.

That’s enough for now about discipleship… Be blessed!

4 Schritte auf Deinem Weg mit Jesus (Kurzversion)

This article is one of the “4 Steps on your Way with Jesus”, see overview:

• 4 Steps on your Way with Jesus (Short Version)

On the subject of water baptism:

• An important step in your new life with Jesus is the so-called water baptism. Baptism means being immersed in water by another Christian. This is a sign that you have given your life to God and now want to live with Him.
• In the Bible, we read that people were completely immersed. A sprinkling or splashing with just a little water is not enough. The baptism can be, for example, in nature in a lake, river or in the sea. Or in a swimming pool, in a bathtub, in a paddling pool etc.
• You don’t need any specific preparation before baptism. You don’t have to study much or become “more sanctified or more holy” before you can be baptised. The first Christians were baptised immediately after their decision for Jesus.
• You have eternal life from God from the moment when you chose Jesus, gave your life to Him, and invited Him into your heart.
  Then you will have your sins forgiven and a sure place in heaven for eternity. This is what happened when you converted to Jesus. This is not something that will only happen with baptism or only when you take other steps.
• Water baptism symbolises that you died (spiritually) and were buried underwater. When you come out of the water, it symbolically means that you have risen again.
  It means that you have a new life from God as a child of God. It symbolises that Jesus rose from the grave on the third day after His crucifixion and came to life again. That happened on the first Easter.
• Any Christian who is baptised himself can baptise you.
• A baptism of babies, as it happens in many churches, is not right. Because a baby wasn’t asked before if it wanted to live with God.
• Children can be baptised if they have made a clear decision for Jesus. There is no specific age limit.
• Perhaps you will find a congregation (e.g. a free church) or other Christians who can baptise you.

Here you will find detailed explanations on this topic: Water Baptism (detailed article)
