.K.! NEW CHRISTIAN....WHAT NOW? by Elmer G. Magnussen
If you are a new Christian, there are some very
important things you need to
know. First, you need to know exactly what has happened to you. Second,
you need to know God's provisions for your future growth and service to Him.

The entire world today is seeking wisdom! Education is prevalent in every
city. Literally thousands of young and old alike are attending universities.

things from God's point of view.

The following testimony is that of a man by the name of Andre.
I WAS IN PRISON, AND YOU CAME TO ME (Matthew 25:36c)
"My testimony to my Christian Brothers and believers in Jesus Christ our
Savior. I want to thank the Lord for saving me from the life I was once
leading. First of all, I was living in darkness and I thought that I truly
loved the way I was.

1 Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the
LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall
not eat of every tree of the garden? 2 And the woman said unto the serpent,
We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden: 3 But of the fruit of
the tree which [is] in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not
eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die. 4 And the serpent said
unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: 5 For God doth know that in the day
ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods,
knowing good and evil.

Chapter 9:14-29 records the story of Jesus and the
Chapter 9:14-29 records the story of Jesus and the
father of the boy with the dumb spirit. Jesus said to the
father, "...all things are possible to him that believeth."
Knowing that faith in God is rewarded by God Himself should
bring strength and encouragement to every Christian.
Hebrews 11:6 says, "But without faith it is impossible to
please him." You might feel that your faith is weak and
needs to be strengthened. Paul told the church at Rome, "So
then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of
God" (Romans 10:17). The daily practice of reading God's
Word will enrich and strengthen your life and enable you to
better face the trials and problems of our troubled world.
Chapter 10 records the Pharisees coming to Jesus
again to tempt Him. Jesus answers their questions
concerning divorce by telling them it was because of the
hardness of their hearts that Moses wrote the precept about
divorce found in Deuteronomy 24:1. In verses 11 and 12 we
read what Jesus said concerning divorce. "And he saith unto
them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another,
committeth adultery against her. And if a woman shall put
away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth
adultery.".
The compassion of Jesus is seen as He ministers to
the little children and to the blind man in this same
chapter. What a lesson for Christians today! We are often
too busy to have time for others. We sincerely need more
compassion and love--not only toward fellow Christians, but
toward a lost and dying world. May God grant us that
compassion, and the ability to see a world that is looking
for someone who really cares about them--someone who can
give them the peace they are seeking!
