The Bible says every person has sinned against God. Sin is more than making a mistake - it is choosing our own way rather than God's way.
Have you ever told a lie? Have you ever took something that did not belong to you? Have you ever used God's name as a cuss word? Have you looked at another person and had lustful thoughts?
Becuase God is holy, He cannot tolerate sin. The Bible describes God as the fair Judge, so He must punish sin wherever it is found.
Our sin has consequences. It separates us from God. If we die with our sins being unforgiven, we will be eternally separated from God in a place the Bible calls Hell.
God is rich in love. He has created you and formed you, and He desires to be worshiped by you. God's love is not based on your goodness or ability. His love and favor cannot be earned.
Jesus Christ demonstrated God's love when he died for you, even while you are a sinner.
Salvation is found in Jesus Christ alone. He is the only way our sins can be forgiven and we can be made right with God. No amount of good deeds, religious activity, or personal effort can save you.
Jesus is the only way to God
God's grace and mercy is infinite. He gives salvation freely to any who would humble themselves and place their faith in Jesus Christ. We are saved by God's grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone.
No one else can save us - not even ourselves.
The word repent means to make a 180 degree turn away from something - in this case, our sin. Confessing our sins to God and asking for forgiveness is how humble ourselves before God. The Bible says God resists the proud and gives grace to the humble (Proverbs 3:34).
Believing in Jesus Christ is more than just knowing facts about Jesus or the things he did. When we believe in Jesus, we are placing our trust in him that he make us clean before God and forgive us of our sins. We are trusting he will save us, which is why we must trust in Christ alone.
