God created us in His own image so we can know Him personally and have a joy-filled life.
He gave us a will and a freedom of choice. Since the beginning of time, we have chosen to
disobey God and go our own wilful way. This results in separation from God and ends in
misery. The Bible says: All of us have sinned and fallen short of God's holiness (Romans 3:23).
The result of unforgiven sin is death. But God's gift is eternal life given by Jesus Christ our
Lord (Romans 6:23).
The Bible says that disobeying God results in being separated from Him. Our attempts can
never unite us with God. Through the ages, people have tried many ways to bridge this gap and
reach God -without success
God loves you and wants you to know Him so He can fill you with peace and give you real life
-- forever. Jesus said: "I came so that everyone would have life, and have it in its fullest" (John
10:10). Jesus Christ is the only answer to this problem. He is the only One who can bring us
back to God. He died on the Cross and rose from the grave, paying the penalty for our sin and
bridging the gap between God and people. We must trust Jesus Christ to forgive our sins and
determine to obey Him for the rest of our lives. That way we can know God and find peace
again. The Bible says:
There is only one God, and Christ Jesus is the only one who can bring us to God (1
Timothy 2:5).
Christ died once for our sins. An innocent person died for those who are guilty. Christ did
this to bring you to God
(1 Peter 3:18).
But God showed how much He loved us by having Christ die for us, even though we were
sinful (Romans 5:8).
How to give your life to Christ:
1. Admit you are a sinner and need forgiveness.
2. Believe that Jesus Christ died for you on the Cross and rose from the grave.
3. Through prayer, confess that Jesus Christ is the only way to God and commit to live for
Him for the rest of your life.
Pray the following prayer aloud and sincerely from your heart:
"Heavenly Father, I come to you in the Name of
Jesus Christ. Your word says that everyone who
calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved (Acts
2:21), I am calling on you. I pray and ask Jesus to
come into my heart and be Lord over my life
according to Romans 10:9-10 which states that "if
you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and
believe in your heart that God raised him from the
dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart
that you believe and are justified, and it is with your
mouth that you confess and are saved". I do that
now. I confess Jesus Christ as Lord and I believe in
my heart that God raised Him from the dead. Amen
