These six Next Steps include: * Studying Your Bible * Praying to God * Discovering the Power of Meaningful Relationships * Experiencing the Significance of Water Baptism * Receiving God's Unlimited Power for Serving Him * Living a Life of Worship and Fellowship God says in the Bible that anyone who belongs to Jesus has become a new person.a new life has begun If you asked Jesus to forgive you of your sins and come into your life, then according to God Himself, you are a new creation As of right now, real life starts - welcome to the family of God
