I was born on June 19th, 1989. My parents have always attended church, so when I was born, I was baptized in a Lutheran Church. When you are baptized in the Lutheran Denomination, you have met Jesus and have received your key to Heaven. Being baptized means the pastor of the church washes you in the holy water and you are declared a child of God. Once I got older, I have to go through a kind of "church school" called confirmation. When you go through this, you re-affrim your baptism and to show that you still know that God is in control of your life and that you do believe that He is the only way to Heaven. I went throught the long three year process of confirmation and I know that Jesus is the only way to Heaven. Once someone accepts that Jesus is the answer and the way, you cannot go back you your old life, you must change for Him. This type of relationship requires you to study His word and understand the truths and why they are facts. Once I came to Liberty University, my walk with Christ became even stronger becasue of the classes I have taken and the friends I have aquired. I know that Jesus is real and becasue of my baptism and my acceptence of Him during my confirmation, I will unite with Him in Heaven one day.
