For there is [only] one God,
and [only] one Mediator
between God and mankind,
the Man Christ Jesus,
who gave Himself as a ransom
[a substitutionary sacrifice to atone]
for all...

WE are the reason that Jesus Christ,
the one and only Son of God,
suffered and died on the cross at Calvary
so that WE could be made right with God
and have eternal life.

Jesus took the punishment
of God's wrath on sin
– that our sins deserve –
upon Himself.
Jesus paid a sin debt He did not owe
because we owe a sin debt we cannot pay,
and to give us a choice for
our eternal destination – Heaven or Hell.

Scripture quotations were accessed from BibleGateway.com
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.
For God did not send His Son into the world
to condemn the world, but that the world
through Him might be saved.
He who believes in Him is not condemned;
but he who does not believe is condemned already,
because he has not believed in the name
of the only begotten Son of God.
And this is the condemnation,
that the light has come into the world,
and men loved darkness rather than light.

Jesus sacrificing His life on the cross at Calvary
clearly shows us how serious God views sin.
Sin separates us from God –
it cannot be in His Holy Presence.
It also shows us how much God loves us
by providing THE way to become right with Him
through His one and only Son, Jesus Christ.
God does not want anyone to face His judgment
and perish – He wants us to repent and live.
Note: Repent means to change your mind, to turn away
from the world's way of doing things (evil, wickedness, darkness),
and turn to Christ and ask Him to redeem you/save you from
eternal condemnation in Hell.
Jesus rose from the grave
on the third day after the crucifixion
(just as He said He would)
thereby conquering spiritual death
and now offers you the gift of
salvation and eternal life.
This gift has to be accepted BY FAITH,
it cannot be earned.

But those who depend on the law to
make them right with God are
under his curse, for the Scriptures say,
"Cursed is everyone who does not observe
and obey all the commands that are
written in God's Book of the Law."
So it is clear that no one can be made
right with God by trying to keep the law.
For the Scriptures say, "It is through faith
that a righteous person has life."

Jesus Christ is God's one and only provision
to be made right with Him,
and to receive eternal life.
HOPE IS FOUND IN JESUS CHRIST ALONE.
THANK YOU, JESUS!
