God knew that mankind needed a redeemer so that they could be brought back into fellowship with Him. "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;" (1 Timothy 2:5). This is why Jesus had to die on the cross. He became our substitute, so we could be forgiven. He took the penalty for our sins, so that we could be FREE! When Christ shed His blood on the cross, He redeemed all those who would come to Him so they could be freed from the curse of sin. |

God is holy and cannot allow anyone with sin into heaven. That is why we need the righteousness of Christ to cover us. This must be done by believing in Jesus Christ and by accepting Him as your Savior and submitting to Him as the Lord of your life. Making Jesus your Savior means that you believe that Jesus died so you could be forgiven. Making Jesus your Lord means that you put Him first in your life. Your submitting to His authority allows Him to begin making necessary changes in your life. This is by far the most important decision you can ever make in this lifetime because Jesus Christ is the only way you can go to heaven and avoid hell. |
