Jesus

Jesus is my Savior.
God in the flesh, come down from heaven to live a perfect and sinless life and die as a perfect sacrifice to pay for our sins so that we might inherit eternal life.
 
"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son so that whoever believes in Him might not perish but have eternal life."  
 ~John 3:16

The Bible says that "all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God" (Romans 3:23) and that "the wages of sin is death" (Romans 6:23).

Each of us, at birth is doomed to eternal separation from our Creator.  Sin blackened the hearts of our first parents, Adam and Eve, and each one of us has inherited the black heart of a sinner.  Our destiny is death--no matter how many "good" things that we may have done in attempts to level out our bad deeds.  One sin was enough.

We are ineligible to inherit the kingdom--to even go near God.  He is unable to have fellowship with darkness.

The glorious news is that God was not satisfied with this destiny of death--He loved us, He loved us so much that He desired to make a way.  The only way would be to become flesh, to sacrifice Himself as a holy, spotless lamb, to cover our sin.
For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 6:23
"Now when they heard this, they were pierced to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, 'Brethren, what shall we do?' Peter said to them, 'Repent, and each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For the promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off, as many as the Lord our God will call to Himself.'"
 ~Acts 2:37-39

Don't delay... you know that you cannot be in right fellowship with God through your own "goodness"- 
the blood of Jesus is the only way.

Eternity is at stake, where will you spend it?

If you would like to talk about this privately with someone, you can email me, my mom, and my dad at aheartsurrendered@gmail.com...  we would love to talk to you!

  1. Thanks for posting this, Amy! I thank JESUS, our Lord and Saviour, for having forgiven me 10 years ago! Now the purpose of my life is loving and serving Him each and every single day.
    The Bible says:
    "And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him." (Colossians 3:17)
