3. SIN GROW & PURSUE TURN & BELIEVE Relationships Work Drugs/Alcohol Money We see glimpses of beauty, purpose and evidence of design all around us. God created a world that worked perfectly, where everything and everyone fit together in harmony. God made us with a purpose, to worship and walk with God in love. World is full of brokenness and emptiness. We see this all around us and in our own lives, as well. When we realize life is not working, we look for a way out. We tend to go different directions, searching for ways to fix our brokenness, our emptiness and find something greater. At this point, we need a remedy - some good news. Because of God’s love, He did not leave us in our brokenness and emptiness. Believing, we are made new. We receive new life through Jesus. When God restores our relationship with Him, we begin to discover meaning and purpose in a broken world. Now, we can pursue God’s design for our lives. Even when we fail, we understand path to being restored – the same good news of Jesus. Life doesn’t work when we ignore God and his original design. When we selfishly insist on doing things our own way. The Bible calls this sin. We all sin. The consequence of our sin is separation from God, and it leads to brokenness and emptiness. Jesus, God in flesh, is our remedy. Jesus came to earth, lived a perfect life, died for our sin and brokenness, and rose from the grave, so that we could be restored and brought back to God. Jesus came to save us, to do for us what we could never do ourselves. This is the good news - the gospel. Simply hearing good news is not enough. We must admit our sin and stop trusting in ourselves. We cannot do it on our own. We must turn from our sin and trust only in Jesus. This is what it means to turn/repent and believe. Life on Mission
