Roman Road #2

Yesterday we learned all of us are sinners in the eyes of a Holy God. Thus we need help to be to be in a relationship with Him because He will not be in the presence of sin. I have some good news!!!

Romans 6:23

23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

First the bad news...because we are sinners we will die. We die physically but we also die spiritually because we are separated from God because of our sin.

Now the good news. God has a gift for you! God sent Jesus Christ to die on the cross for your sins thus He defeated sin and death on the cross and when He resurrected from the grave! Jesus took your place and your sins on the cross! We deserve death and hell for our rebellion against God but God in His great love gave us a gift....Jesus His only Son!!!

When you repent of your sins and put your faith and love in Jesus and make Him Lord and Savior of your life you obtain eternal life with God in heaven forever. there is no other way to heaven but Jesus. That is God's gift to us out of His great mercy and grace for those He made in His image. 

So it is up to each individual to accept or reject the gift of God....Jesus! Which ever you choose has eternal consequences. Choose wisely.
