The Christian faith begins with an acknowledgement of our sin and a profession of faith in our Savior and is then evidenced by a godly life

Contrary to this author and his TULIP Calvinist ilk, Christianity does NOT begin with us, with any mental exercise of learning the "right" doctrine or reciting a "sinner's prayer".

It begins with Christ; His Incarnation, Death, Resurrection, and Ascension.

We receive His gifts in faith and Baptism.

It is NOT about us. Never has been. Never will be.
