WHY JESUS MATTERS
who is JESUS
HE IS GOD, AND HE LOVES YOU
Most people would agree that Jesus was a real historical figure. That is true, He was. However, He was more than just a man or a prophet. He was God. His life, His words, His deeds, and His love proved that to be true. What do we know about His love?
Ephesians 2:4-5; John 3:16
HE GAVE HIS LIFE FOR YOU
Trying to live a good life is an admirable thing. Although many people make that a goal in life, our sin separates us from God and requires the payment of death (Romans 3:23, 6:23). The good news, though, is that Jesus made that payment for us by giving His life for us.
1 Corinthians 15:3-4; Romans 5:8
HE OFFERS LIFE TO YOU
Although medicine and technology have given humans a longer life span, physical death is inevitable. So what happens after we die? Is there such thing as everlasting life? The answer can be found in Jesus.
John 3:36; John 11:25
HE WANTS TO SPEND TODAY AND ALL OF ETERNITY WITH YOU
In order for you to spend today and eternity with Him, you must accept His gift of salvation. We need to be saved because we are lost in sin. We need to be saved because the result of our sin is eternity in Hell (separated from Him). Salvation is not found through good works or being religious. Salvation is found in Jesus. The work was done on the cross when He died for us. For us, it is about trusting Jesus. It is about accepting the gift. Call out to Him, ask Him to come into your life, save you from sin, and give you His gift of eternal life.
Ephesians 2:8-9; Romans 10:9
