Because you and I have sinned against God and man, we deserve God's punishment. The Bible says that "the wages of sin is death," eternal separation from God.1 But God offers us "eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."2 "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life."3 You can be wrong about many things, but you dare not be wrong about Christ. Through faith in Him you can be saved just as you are. Your sins can be forgiven and the peace of God can fill your life: "As many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name."4 Whom will you choose? The crowd or Christ? Bible References: |
