Principle 3:
Jesus Christ is God’s only provision for our sin. Through Him alone we can know God personally and experience God’s love and plan for our life.
He Died in Our Place
“God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” (Romans 5:8)
He Rose From the Dead
“Christ died for our sins…He was buried…He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures…He appeared to Peter, then to the twelve. After that He appeared to more than five hundred…” (1 Corinthians 15:3-5)
He Is the Only Way to God
“Jesus answered, ‘I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through Me.'” (John 14:6)
This diagram illustrates that God has bridged the gulf that separates us from Him by sending His Son, Jesus Christ, to die on the cross in our place to pay the penalty for our sins.
It is not enough just to know these truths…
