"But God proves His own love for us in that while we were still sinners Christ died for us." Romans 5:8
There is ONE great Creator God.
"But God..."
God is the Creator of all things. Acts 17:24-26 tells us that God made the world and does not live in shrines, idols, or anything created by human hands. God needs nothing from us, but instead gives everyone life and breath. God loves His creation, and has proven His love for us.
We have ONE great problem.
"...proves His love for us in that while we were still sinners..."
The reason God has to prove His love is because mankind has a sin problem. We rebel against God and try to take control of our lives and our universe from the God who created it. Romans 3:23 says that everyone has sinned against God. Romans 6:23 says that the wages of sin is death (spiritual death).
God has provided us with ONE great hope.
"Christ died for us..."
We are unable to save ourselves from our sin problem. Only God is great enough to do that, and He proved His love for us by sending Jesus Christ as a perfect sacrifice to suffer the penalty of our sin through His death on the cross and the resurrection. 1 Peter 3:18 says that "Christ also died for our sins once for all, the just for the unjust, so that He might bring (us) to God." Jesus Christ is our ONE and only way back to God.
We have ONE great decision.
Believe!
The Bible teaches in Romans 10:13 that everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord will be saved. How is this done? "If you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved" (Romans 10:9). John 3:16 says, "For God loved the world in this way: He gave His one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life."
Now that you have heard the Good News, God want you to respond to Him. You can talk to Him using words like these:
My life is broken - I recognize it's becasue of my sin. I need you. I believe Christ came to live, die, and was raised from the dead - to rescue me from my sin. Forgive me. I turn from my selfish ways and put my trust in you. I know that Jesus is Lord of all, and I will follow Him.
