John 3:16

eternal life

15. 2 MAN’S PROBLEM Our problem lies in our sinfulness.
God is holy and cannot tolerate sin.

16. God created humanity to be with him and to enjoy his presence.
Only because man willfully disobeyed him did sin enter the world and separate us from God.

17. For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Romans 3:23
God’s Word tells us that all of us have sinned.
Our sinful desires and thoughts put us in no position to please God, because God hates sin.

18. The wages of sin is death.
Romans 6:23
death
What is the cost of sin?
It’s a penalty we cannot escape.

19. GOD

Is it alive, or dead?
Give it more time, and it will look like this.

We are like that rose, because sin cuts us off from God.

22. GOD sin death second death
But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic, the idolaters, and all liars – their place will be in the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.
Romans 6:23
Based on this list, there are no ‘safe’ sins.

27. “... he was buried, ... he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures…. After that, he appeared to more than 500 of the brothers at the same time….
1 Corinthians 15:4-6
When he died, he didn’t stay dead. He rose after three days. This proves that he was the powerful Son of God.

MAN’S
RESPONSE
Just knowing these truths is not enough. We need to respond personally to God’s offer of salvation through Jesus Christ.
How?
Click here to continue.

29. God’s Word says that salvation is a gift of God and not a result of human works. Not by religion or by sincerity or by obeying laws – it is available only by God’s grace.
It is something we do not deserve and cannot earn.
It is by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God – not by works, so that no one can boast.
Ephesians 2:8-9
not by works

30. How do you respond to this gift?
GOD
sin
faith
death
second
death

31. We must respond in faith.
Faith simply means believing God’s Word and that he will do exactly as he said he would.
This includes the need to acknowledge our sins before him, because true faith involves turning away from what displeases him.
It means surrendering our lives to God.

32. Jesus said,
Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him.
Revelation 3:20
I will come in to him.
If you and I ask him to come into our lives, he will give us eternal life.

33. You can pray something like this.
You can receive Christ right now by simply going to God in prayer. Just talk to him. You might not know the words to say, but he looks deep into your heart to see what you are trying to tell him.
You can pray something like this.
Lord Jesus, I am sorry for my sins. Thank you for dying for me on the cross. With your help, I will turn away from my sins. Today I am putting my trust in you as my Lord and Savior and I receive you into my heart. Thank you for forgiving my sins and coming into my life. I accept your free gift of eternal life. Thank you that one day I will be with you in heaven. From this day on, I will follow and obey you. Amen.

1 John 5:11-13
he has given us eternal life,
