Jesus Christ

Who is Jesus and why does He matter?

Jesus Our Lord & Saviour

THE HUMAN CONDITION

God created us to enjoy an intimate, Father-child relationship with Him. But the first man and woman disobeyed Father God and went on their own willful way. We have all been rebelling against God in this way since.

The Bible says: Everyone has sinned and is far away from God’s saving presence.

OUR HUMAN EFFORT

Our efforts to reach God on our own terms have always fallen short of reaching Him. For what it’s worth, we try very hard – with good works, charity and religious rites. But let’s be honest – how can sinful man reach out to a perfect and holy God on his own?

The Bible says: It does not, therefore, depend on human desire or effort, but on God’s mercy and grace.

GOD’S SOLUTION

Instead, God reached down to us in love through Jesus Christ. He became a man and willingly took on the punishment for our sins by dying a criminal’s death on the cross. On the third day, God raised Jesus from the dead back to life forever.

The Bible says: God has shown us how much He loves us – it was while we were still sinners that Christ died for us.

OUR RESPONSE TO GOD

Jesus Christ now stands in the gap between us and Father God. Through Him, that Father-child relationship can be restored. On our part, we have to now accept Jesus as our Saviour and our Lord.

The Bible says: If you confess that Jesus is Lord and believe that God raised him from death, you will be saved.

If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him up from the dead, you will be saved.

Thank You for loving me and accepting me as Your child.
Thank you for the gift of eternal life.
In Jesus’ name I pray,

Amen.
