The most astounding event of human history occured whe this man, Jesus Christ, died on a Roman cross. When he died, an untimely darkness covered the alnd at 3 p.m. and an earthquake occurred as he took his last breath. This man call Jesus was crucified.
3 days later he was rasied from the dead.
Heres why he died:
"But your iniquites (sins) have separated between you and your God, and you sins have hid his face from you, that he will nto hear." Isaih 59:2
God is holy and our sins separate us from him . We have all broken God's laws by lying, dishonring our parents, cheating, hating, commiting sex acts in our mihnd with someone we are not married to , stealing coverting, taking his holy name in vain, etc. These are all sins against God and we are all guilty of breaking the whole law and are worthy of death.
Because we are guilty of breaking God's holy law, we deserve to be punished. God doesn't want us to be punished though, so he sent His son to pay the debt for us.
At the end of a perfect (sinless) life, Christ carried the very cross he was to be nailed to. His deep love for you, along with the nails driven through the his hands and feet, that held him to that cross as he agonized for 6 hours in pain... to pay for your sins. He was crucified to make peace between God and man. The Son of God bridged the gap that sin had caused. This wonderful man named Jesus chose to die for you rather than live without you.
He loves you.
"For the wages of sinis death; but the gift of god is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 6:23
Christ died to full pay for the sins fo the human race (John 19:30) God loves us and wants us to experience a relationship with Him, now and forever (John 17:3) Friend, who else has ever died fo ryou but Jesus, the Good Shepherd?
"For when when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly." Romans 5:6
No religion can save your soul from hell. Neither can Mohammed, the Pope, Mary, Buddah, Hare Krishna, nor can any other sinful man save you.
"For there is ONE God, and ONE mediator betwen God and men, the man Christ Jesus." 1 Timothy 2:5
Jesus is the only way to God. Only the one true God, Jesus Christ died for you and rose again to take away all your sins. He was the only One qualified for the job and he is the only ONE worthy of your worship.
Now is the time for you to apply His holy blood to your life so that you may live now and eternally with Him. You must turn away from your sins to Him - repent. Now, pray this prayer from your heart aloud:
"Dear Lord Jesus, thank you for dying for my sins I repent all of my sins against you right now, and ask for your forgivness through the precious blood fo Jesus Christ who died and rose again for me. Lord Jesus, take over my life right now and forevermore."
