"But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ- by grace you have been saved".
(Ephesians 2:4-5)
"No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord". (Romans 8:37-39)
"But God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us".(Romans 5:8)
"The LORD your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing". (Zephaniah 3:17)
We've sinned!
Sin is saying or doing or thinking things that are wrong, and our sins separate us from God. "For all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God." We deserve punishment for our sins – “The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
"God looked on the earth, and behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted their way upon the earth". (Genesis 6:12)
“When they sin against You (for there is no man who does not sin) and You are angry with them and deliver them to an enemy, so that they take them away captive to the land of the enemy, far off or near". (1 Kings 8:46)
"Indeed, there is not a righteous man on earth who continually does good and who never sins". (Ecclesiastes 7:20)
As it is written,
“There is none righteous, not even one". (Romans 3:10)
God sent Jesus!
God sent His Son Jesus Christ into the world so that our sins could be forgiven. Jesus lived a perfect life and He healed and loved people and taught them about God. He was put to death like a common criminal on a cross of wood. When He died, He willingly took the sins of the world -- yours and mine -- and paid the penalty in our place. "For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him would not perish, but would have everlasting life."
“He who receives you receives Me, and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me".
(Matthew 10:40)
"Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad. Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am". (John 8:56-58)
"And Moses said, I will now turn aside, and see this great sight, why the bush is not burnt. And when the Lord saw that he turned aside to see, God called unto him out of the midst of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses. And he said, Here am I. And he said, Draw not nigh hither, put off thy shoes from off thy feet, for the place whereon thou standest is holy ground. Moreover he said, I am the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And Moses hid his face; for he was afraid to look upon God". (Exodus 3:3-6)
"Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also, Seeing it is one God, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith. Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law". (Romans 3:29-31)
