This article is not meant to be an attempt to convert you into another religion or make you feel bad about yourself. It is simply a brief explanation of the nature of Christian faith.

Following Christ requires personal discipleship. During the Day of Pentecost, Peter told the crowds how to receive salvation: repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. By doing so, we receive the Holy Spirit. Likewise, after Paul was led to Christ by Ananias, he was baptized and called on Christ’s name. Throughout the New Testament, baptism is an important part of Christianity.

When Jesus called the people to him, the people were terrified and ran to the city or the country. Jesus came to the area and cured the man of his demons. While people ran to hide, people came to see the man with demons. The crowds were so afraid that they described the man as being like a pig. Many people begged Jesus to leave, but the demon-possessed man begged him to take him along with him.
