About Me

Welcome to the Christian Friends MySpace page! This page was created with the main purpose of creating a a common place for those of Christian faith to unite as one. A place where encouraging stories and experiences of God’s Grace could be shared with one another. A place, where those with heavy burdens can find comfort from their peers. A non-judgmental place that would testify of the love of Jesus Christ, and help bring those that are lost, back into the arms of God. We hope you find this page to be an inspiration, and I hope to hear from you all!
Christian Friends was created with the purpose of bringing people to Christ as well as strengthening those who are already of Christian faith. We are a "ministry" in the sense that we minister the Word of God. Nothing more, nothing less. This site is not based on religion, but a relationship with Jesus Christ. There are so many entities that are trying to take God out of our world, and it is time the we Christians make a stand and bring God back into our daily lives. For all of those who pass through, we are here to provide friendship, and a caring heart.
SEEKING THE WAY, THE TRUTH, & THE LIGHT?My friend….Are you searching to fill the lonely void in your heart? Are you searching for joy in a world of pain? Are you searching for comfort from your fears and burdens? Are you searching for answers and meaning to life? Are you seeking the truth, and the light? Would you like to discover the love of Jesus Christ right now? No matter who you are, what you have done, or how lost that you may be, He is always waiting for you to return to Him, with open arms. Come home to Him now, and start your life anew. If you have not yet made your decision to receive Christ as your savior, I urge you to read through the following and receive Him this very moment.GOD LOVES YOU: God loves each and every one of us and wants us all to return to His arms. All He asks in return is that we acknowledge the great gift that He gave to us.“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” - John 3:16“For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” - Romans 8:38-39 ADMIT YOUR SINFUL NATURE: To receive salvation, first you must admit your sin. Each and everyone of us is a sinner, dead in our sins. It is our sins that separate us from God’s grace. “There is none righteous, no not one.” - Romans 3:10 “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” - Romans 3:23 “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.” - 1 John 1:9 ADMIT THAT YOU CANNOT SAVE YOURSELF: We cannot save ourselves, but can only be saved by the sacrifice that Jesus made. “Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy, He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit.” - Titus 3:5 “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.” - Ephesians 2:8-9 ACKNOWLEDGE THAT CHRIST PAID FOR YOUR SINS:Jesus Christ was betrayed, tortured, and then crucified. He shed His blood, died on the cross, and the rose three days later as payment for our sins. We can only be saved through the sacrifice of Jesus and we must believe and acknowledge His sacrifice. “But God demonstrates His own love towards us, in that while we were sinners, Christ died for us.” - Romans 5:8 “I tell you the truth, he who believes shall has everlasting life” - John 6:47ACCEPT CHRIST AS YOUR SAVIOR & ASK HIM INTO YOUR LIFE: You can be accept the gift of Christ’s salvation this very moment by praying this simple prayer: Dear God, I know that I am a sinner lost in my sinful nature. I know that I cannot save myself. I know that You love me and want to save me. Jesus, I believe You are the Son of God. I believe You died on the cross, that you shed Your blood to pay for my sins, and that God raised You from the dead three days later. I now turn from my sin and, by faith, receive You as my personal Lord and Savior. Come into my heart, forgive my sins, and save me, Lord Jesus. In Your name I pray, Amen “Jesus answered, I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” - John 14:6 Upon the authority of God’s word you are now a child of God. “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” - Romans 10:13
