Christian?
2. Believing

 'The kingdom of God is at hand, repent and believe the good news.' Mark 1:15

REVIEW

Q: What is a Christian?
A: Someone who belongs to the kingdom of God.

Q: How can I belong to the kingdom of God?
A: Repent and believe in Jesus Christ.

We have seen that a Christian believes certain facts about Jesus Christ:
'Whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child will never enter it.' Mark 10:15

So believing is more than just accepting facts about Jesus. I must personally receive him as my King and Saviour, and by so doing I receive the kingdom of God.
What gifts does God give to those who accept Christ?
1. The Holy Spirit
Mark 1:8
Jesus Christ comes to live in me by his spirit, and begins to change me from the inside out.
2. The forgiveness of sins
Mark 2:10
Do I know for certain that my sins are totally forgiven? Was Jesus' death sufficient to pay for my sins? 		3. Eternal Life
Mark 10:29-30
Do I know I have eternal life? I trust in what JESUS has done and not in what I do?
