WHY JESUS?

 

Jesus is the most important person in history. He walked Earth 2000 years ago, having been born in a rural town to a lower-class family, and a virgin mom. He lived a relatively quiet life until He turned  30 when his teaching ministry began. Folks always new there was something special about this man. Over the course of three years he conducted amazing miracles, shared powerful messages, and made bold declarations that he was God through his words and works. No one could hold any error, or lie, or selfishness against him. His work led him ultimately to be crucified on a Roman cross to save mankind from sin, Satan, and death. And just as He promised, He was resurrection from the grave three days after His death. He even appeared to hundreds in the flesh, before he ascended into heaven to be with his Father.

 

Jesus arrived on planet Earth to engage humanity at a very specific time, in a very specific place, in a very specific way, and on a very specific mission. He came to reveal God to people, especially those who felt far from God. He came to establish his kingdom an reunite mankind with God. Sin created a separation between man and God. Sin required justice, and all sin required payment. Jesus was the perfect representation of God's Justice and Love. Since sin rightly needs to be paid for and removed, Jesus became a sacrificial replacement for us. He took the wrath of God on Himself, so that sinners might be made free from sin and death. We know this worked and that God accepted this sacrifice in our place, because He conquered the grave and rose from the dead victoriously!

 

Jesus' message has never changed. True life exists only in following Him. Jesus asks us to turn from our rebellion and trust Him. For those who surrender to following Jesus, He promises eternal life, abundant life, help from the Holy Spirit, a community of followers on Earth, and most of all a deep relationship with the Creator of the universe. Those who follow Him will experience forgiveness of sin, and the freedom from shame and guilt. As a follower of Jesus, we cannot hold back from sharing this Good News that can free others as well.

 

One day Jesus is coming back and everything on Earth will be restored to the praise of His glorious grace.

Are you ready to accept the gift of eternal life that Jesus is offering you right now?

 

Let's review what this commitment involves:

  • I acknowledge I am a sinner in need of a Savior - this is to repent or turn away from sin

  • I believe in my heart that God raised Jesus from the dead - this is to trust that Jesus paid the full penalty for my sins

  • I confess Jesus as my Lord and my God - this is to surrender control of my life to Jesus

  • I receive Jesus as my Savior forever - this is to accept that God has done for me and in me what He promised

 

 

If it is your sincere desire to receive Jesus into your heart as your personal Lord and Savior, then talk to God from your heart:

Here's a Suggested Prayer:

 

"Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner and I do not deserve eternal life. But, I believe You died and rose from the grave to make me a new creation and to prepare me to dwell in your presence forever. Jesus, come into my life, take control of my life, forgive my sins and save me. I am now placing my trust in You alone for my salvation and I accept your free gift of eternal life."
