Becoming a Christian: Straight from Scripture EP.243

from Excelling in Christ Hosted by Clarence Fell

Let's explore something foundational: how to become a Christian. In this episode, I lay out a simple, biblical path, not my opinion, not tradition, but the original first-century model straight from Scripture. I take you through the essential steps: hearing the Word, believing in Christ, not just historically but personally, repenting of sins, confessing Jesus as Lord, and being baptized. Each of these is a call to personal transformation. We also confront common misconceptions: that belief alone is enough, or that repentance can be passive. Christianity, I argue, isn’t about perfection or just professing faith, it’s about loyalty, persistence, and making Jesus truly Lord of your life. From Philip and the Ethiopian eunuch to Paul’s words in Romans and Corinthians, I walk through verse after verse to help anyone asking, “What must I do to be saved?” If you’ve ever wondered what it really means to become a Christian, or how to help someone else begin that journey, this lesson is for you. It's not flashy. It’s not modernized. But it’s the truth as taught from the very beginning.
