What has Jesus done for you?
In the beginning, man had a personal relationship with God.
But sin separated man from God. Man is continually reaching out to God through good deeds, religion, philosophy, etc.
And the price of sin is death. Not just the physical death alone, but spiritual death, which is eternal separation from God in hell.
God loves man, and He wants to bridge the gap between them which is caused by sin.
He sent His Son, Jesus Christ to die on the cross for our sins. Thus, taking our place in death and paying the price.
And by acknowledging Jesus' death on the cross for you and receiving Him in your heart as your personal Lord and Savior, you can know God personally and experience God's love.
How does the cross apply to you today?
How does the cross apply to you today? Is Jesus still interested in us? What does it mean to have a personal relationship with God? How does someone go about making that kind of commitment?
Because of Jesus' resurrection, His followers do not have to honor a dead founder. They have a vital, personal relationship with Him. Jesus Christ lives today and faithfully enriches the lives of all those who trust and obey Him.
Throughout centuries, multitudes have acknowledged the worthiness of Jesus Christ, including many who have greatly influenced the world.
French physicist and philosopher Blaise Pascal spoke of people's need for Jesus when he said, "There is a God-shaped vacuum in the heart of every man, which only God can fill through His Son Jesus Christ."
How do you get to know Jesus personally?
We must trust Jesus Christ for forgiveness and eternal life. And we must receive Him by personal invitation.
The Bible says...
John 1:12 (The Message)
12But whoever did want him,
who believed he was who he claimed
and would do what he said,
He made to be their true selves,
their child-of-God selves.
What you must do:
- Admit your need. Be willing to say, "I am a sinner."
- Be willing to repent and turn away from sin.
- Believe that Jesus Christ died for you on the cross.
- Receive Him as Savior and Lord. Through prayer, invite Him to come in and fill your life.
If you would like to have a relationship with Christ, simply pray this prayer and mean it in your heart.
Dear Lord Jesus, I know I am a sinner. I believe you died for my sins. Right now, I turn from my sins and open the door of my heart and life. I confess you as my personal Lord and Savior. Thank you for saving me. Amen.
If you just prayed that prayer and meant it, Jesus Christ has now taken residence in your heart! Your decision to follow Christ means God has forgiven you and that you will spend eternity in heaven.
The Bible tells us, “But if we confess our sins to God, he can always be trusted to forgive us and take our sins away". (1 John 1:9 CEV).
To put your faith in action, be sure to spend time with God by reading your Bible, praying, going to church, and telling others about Christ.
