This is the Gospel. God's Good news for you!
God created man to honor, serve and fellowship with Him.
"Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power: for Thou hast created all things, and for Thy pleasure they are and were created." Revelation 4:11
Man chose to sin against God rather than serve Him.
"For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God" Romans 3:23 (Sin is breaking God's law. 1 John 3:4)
When man chose to disobey God, the result was death.
Spiritual death separates a person from the life of God (Ephesians 2:1). Physical death separates a person's soul from his or her body (Hebrews 9:27). Eternal death separates a person, both soul and body, from God forever in Hell (Revelation 20:15).
Throughout history individuals have tried many ways to gain or earn eternal life. But, every attempt has been unsuccessful.
"There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death." Proverbs 14:12
"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast." Ephesians 2:8,9
Jesus Christ, God's sinless Son, was sent by the Father to pay the penalty for our sins by dying on the cross in our place!
"But God commendeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." Romans 5:8
"For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God." 1 Peter 3:18a
How do we obtain so great a salvation? We must receive Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior.
"I am the way, the trugh and the life: no man cometh unto the Father but by Me." John 14:6
In order to receive Jesus as your Savior, you must repent of your sin and put your trust in Him alone as the only hope of eternal life.
"Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that you sins may be blotted out." Acts 3:19a
"Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved." Acts 16:31a
"For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." Romans 10:13
God's Promise is Eternal Life
"Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that heareth My word, and believeth on Him that sent Me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life." John 5:24
