The
one and only God who is holy and perfect, the creator of the universe,
made us in His image to love, know and obey Him.We sin by disobeying and
turning away from God. In simplest terms, we break the law of God in
our hearts, minds and even physically making enemies with God. This
condemns us to death and to eternal punishment.
In love, Jesus
Christ, who is God, came to us as a man, lived a sinless life keeping
God’s law perfectly, died on the cross for sinners like you and me
taking the punishment of all who will turn to and trust in Him. He rose
from death on the third day defeating death itself.
We as sinners
are to have sorrow over our sins, turning away from them and
turning to Jesus Christ in faith that He took the punishment for our
sins on the cross. In this only can we have forgiveness and a right
relationship with God. By the grace of God we are born-again into a new
life, an eternal life with God. We are to love God with all of our
heart, mind and soul living by His commands.
That’s good news!
