Romans 3:23-24 “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:”
Every person alive is a sinner, separated from a holy God by actions consistent with an inherited sin nature.
No work of our own can bridge the gap between us and God. Only one person, through His voluntary bloodshed and death could reconcile us.
He was sent by God, born of a virgin, free from the stain of sin, perfect in character and behavior, and possessing the full embodiment and essence of the one true God.
The Father chose, before time began, to fulfill His own requirement of a blood atonement in the sacrifice of His only son.
Jesus Christ was fully God, born into His creation fully human, and when He died on the cross and was buried, death could only hold Him three days.
Rising from the dead He conquered sin, was proven alive by many witnesses, and returned to His father to plead the case of men who place their faith in Him.
This magnificent work of love and grace has afforded us the opportunity to be saved from sin, death, and Hell.
