  • Just like the Ephesians in Paul of Tarsus time, we are also gentiles (if you are not Jewish by birth); but God in His great mercy included us to receive His gift of Salvation through Jesus Christ. The Gospel or the Good News that anyone who believes in His Son, repented from their sins and turn away from them, have His promise of sharing heaven with Him and His Son to live forever with them when we die and live this earth.

    It is a Promise that is marked with His continued guidance through His Holy Spirit in us. A Born Again Christian is baptized with the Holy Spirit of God to guard and teach us of God's Word and Truth. Just as Jesus proclaimed, we will not experience the presence of God, not unless we become born again in His Spirit.

    The above link explains fully who true Christians are. There are many religious denominations that claim that they are Christians. True Christians are those who have the same conversion of their faith like the early Christians after Jesus' Resurrection. Do not risk your eternal destiny by believing otherwise, or other ways or under other circumstances.

    "True Christians are “born-again” (John 3:3) and are controlled by the Holy Spirit; they are no longer controlled by their sinful nature (Romans 8:9). Indeed, born-again Christians have the Spirit of Christ indwelling their hearts (Galatians 4:6) and they become new creations, “the old has gone, the new has come!”(2 Corinthians 5:17). When a person receives Christ, tremendous spiritual changes take place in him, and true converts will indeed display the characteristics of genuine Christians. For example, they will understand the importance of abiding daily in God’s Word, which shows not only how we can be saved from our sins, but also how we may be equipped to serve God as well as how to obtain true success in life (2 Timothy 3:17; James 1:25). True Christians will walk in the light and obey God’s commands, for “God’s love is truly made complete” in those who obey His Word (1 John 2:5)." from gotquestions.org/false-conversion
