God Loves You!
The
Bible says, "God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son,
that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life"
The problem is that...
2All of us have done, said or thought things that
are wrong. This is called sin, and our sins have separated us from God.
The
Bible says "All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." God
is perfect and holy, and our sins separate us from God forever. The Bible says
"The wages of sin is death."
The good news is that, about 2,000
years ago,
3God sent His only Son Jesus Christ to die for our
sins.
Jesus
is the Son of God. He lived a sinless life and then died on the cross to pay
the penalty for our sins. "God demonstrates His own love for us in that
while we were yet sinners Christ died for us."
Jesus
rose from the dead and now He lives in heaven with God His Father. He offers us
the gift of eternal life -- of living forever with Him in heaven if we accept
Him as our Lord and Savior. Jesus said "I am the way, the truth, and the
life. No one comes to the Father except by Me."
God
reaches out in love to you and wants you to be His child. "As many as
received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to
those who believe on His name." You can choose to ask Jesus Christ to
forgive your sins and come in to your life as your Lord and Savior.
4If you want to accept Christ as your Savior and
turn from your sins, you can ask Him to be your Savior and Lord by praying a
prayer like this:
"Lord
Jesus, I believe you are the Son of God. Thank you for dying on the cross for
my sins. Please forgive my sins and give me the gift of eternal life. I ask you
in to my life and heart to be my Lord and Savior. I want to serve you
always."
