Jesus came to explain the truth about God and to pay the price for man's rebellion.

John 1:18: "No one has ever seen God, but God the One and Only, who is at the Father's side (Jesus Christ), has made him known."

2 Corinthians 5:21 says, "He (God) made Him (Christ) who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him." In other words, Jesus died because of our sins, so that we wouldn't have to pay the penalty demanded by true justice - eternal death.

Jesus died for our sins, and was raised victorious over death.

1 Corinthians 15:22: "For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive" and again, (verses 54-57) "Death has been swallowed up in victory. Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting? The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ."

Aren't all religions basically the same?Jesus Christ is the only way to have our sins forgiven and to have a relationship with God which results in eternal life.

"But God demonstrated His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8). Jesus said "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me" (John 14:6).Ultimately, God will restore paradise.Again there will be no death, no suffering, no evil. Our experience in this world of hardship and travail will be but a brief moment in a wondrous eternity.

We will spend eternity exploring God's new creation...How great that will be! Imagine having an eternity to discover the infinite creations of an all-knowing, all-powerful God! We will praise God while in heaven for His work as Creator and Redeemer, "You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for You created all things, and by Your will they were created and have their being" (Revelation 4:11).

Believe in Him, receive the forgiveness that He offers.

"To all who received Him, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God" (John 1:12). Trust God for eternal life in heaven,

"For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life" (John 3:16).

Trust God for fulfillment in your present life.

"I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full" (John 10:10). Don't put it off for another time. Accept God's gift of life today!

What does God expect of me? The Bible says: "It is appointed for men to die once, and after this comes judgment." (Hebrews 9:27) Someday, each of us must stand face to face with the God of creation. What happens at that judgment depends upon the decisions you are making right now.

Example of prayer for accepting Christ's gift of salvation:

"God, I know that you are good and loving. You Created this wonderful world in perfection. Because of sin, it has been corrupted and awaits your renewing. I know that I am a sinner. Thank you for dying in my place and forgiving my sins. Thank you for giving me new life, both on earth and in heaven. Please help me to be committed to you and live in a way that is pleasing to you. In Jesus name, Amen!"

You are no longer viewed by God as a sinner!

God sees Christ's righteousness in you. "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things have passed away; behold, all things become new" (2 Corinthians 5:17).
