What do I do now?
If you understand that you are a sinner (lawbreaker) and understand that you need to be made righteous before God, then you need to have faith in Christ Jesus and repent of your sins.
Have Faith
The news that Jesus died for your sins, rose from the dead, and offers you His righteousness is the gospel (good news). Believe it. It's true!
Repent
You must purpose in your heart to turn away from your sin and obey the Lord Jesus.
Grow
After justification comes the next phase of your Christian life, sanctification. This is the process by which we are made more and more like Christ. Whereas justification requires no work, sanctification requires work. "So then, my beloved, just as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your salvation with fear and trembling..." (Philippians 2:12, NASB95) One of the chief means of sanctification is by reading the Scripture. "Sanctify them in the truth; Your word is truth." (John 17:17, NASB95)
