TRULY TURN
Today's reading: Luke 3-4
"Then John went from place to place on both sides of the Jordan River, preaching that people should be baptized to show that they had turned from their sins and turned to God to be forgiven." Luke 3:3 NLT
Folks are a little confused about what it means to be a Christian.
Some get that it means to be baptized, the outward sign of acceptance of His gift of grace.
Some get that it means to be saved, turning away from sins and yielding completely to Him.
Few realize it means both.
We have to turn away from sin and turn towards God. Turn our backs on one life and fully face another.
Two steps.
Not one step or another, but two steps.
