Life
A person goes to school --graduates --
marries -- gets a job - has a family -- buys a house -- watches
his children leave home -- continues to work -- eventually retires --
and dies.
Is that it? Is that all there is? Something seems wrong? What
happened and what are we to do?
The
Sequence
1. God created man and desired to have
a relationship with him.
2. Man disobeyed God and fellowship was broken.
3. Jesus Christ paid the penalty, in full, for man's sin and bridged the
gap so we can have fellowship with God.
What
are you to do?
1. Recognizing you are a sinner, just
like all of us.
2. To confess your sins to God and ask for forgiveness.
3. Turn away from your sin remembering that through Christ you are no
longer a slave to sin and can win the battle...
4. Believe that Christ died for you!
5. Ask Christ to become the controlling person in your life.
Some

while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. (Romans 5:8)

unjust, in order that He might bring us to God, having been put to death
in the flesh but made alive in the Spirit. (1 Peter3:18)
4.
"and He (Christ) died for all, that they who live should no longer
live for themselves, but for Him who died and rose again on their
behalf. (2 Corinthians 5:15)

Jesus. (Romans 8:1) |
