“I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.” — Galatians 2:20
This powerful statement from Paul the Apostle beautifully captures the essence of what it means to be a Christian.
Christianity is more than just embracing a doctrinal statement, obeying a moral code, or practicing rituals of worship. At its heart, Christianity is about a personal relationship with Christ — and Christ is God.
To be a Christian is to have received Christ as the Savior and Lord of our lives (John 1:12-13). It begins with repentance, a turning away from our sins, and receiving forgiveness through His sacrifice on the cross. Christianity is about accepting the gift of salvation by grace through faith in Jesus alone (Ephesians 2:8-9) and living a life that reflects His teachings, abiding in Him to bear good fruit (John 15:1-17).
