The Good News

There is a wonderful book which contains everything we need to know to live our lives the way our Creator intended (II Timothy 3:16,17). There are countless truths to live by found in this book, God's message to mankind, but if we were to boil everything down to its most basic message, this book, the Bible, makes three things clear...

1. The Bible says that mankind has a problem, and that problem is called sin. Sin is any action or attitude that falls short of God's perfect standard. Every one of us has the problem of sin (Romans 3:23). And the Bible teaches us that there is a consequence to sin - sin separates us from a holy God (Habakkuk 1:13). In fact, the Bible tells us that end result of sin is death (Romans 6:23) and that there is nothing that we ourselves can do to solve the problem of sin.

2. The Bible says that there is a solution to the problem of sin, and that solution is the person of Jesus Christ (Romans 6:23). The Bible tells us that God loved us so much that he sent Jesus, His only Son, to die in our place (John 3:16). Jesus paid the penalty of your sin by dieing on the cross so that you would not have to be forever separated from God (I John 4:10). The Bible also tells us that –contrary to man’s ideas - Jesus is the only solution for our sin problem, and He is the only way to God (John 14:6). His resurrection ensures that we can also go to God.

3. The Bible demands a personal decision. It is not enough to just know about Jesus Christ, His death on the cross for you and His resurrection. You must personally accept that He did this in your place. This is a free gift, you do not have to do anything for it – except making it yours (John 1:12).
