ON WORD OF GOD (BIBLE: How to Know God This video requires a browser that supports HTML5 video. The Bible teaches us that all people were meant to have friendship with God. It began that way, but ever since Adam and Eve, man has fought against that relationship. Instead of living in peace with God and each other, we find conflict and disagreement... or worse! Man has a habit of living for himself. We often ignore God and pursue our own plans. Our selfish choices do not bring us life. In fact, they earn us a death sentence. God understands that mankind battles with sin. He understands that we are frustrated with how things turn out. He also knows that left to ourselves, we would not always do the right thing. So, God stepped in and made a way for us to find forgiveness and begin again. How did God do this? He sent His Son, Jesus Christ to live among us. He taught us a better way. Jesus was perfect in every way, but mankind was not happy with God's way forward. While Jesus taught us to love God and each other, evil men plotted his death upon a cross. They took him away and tried his case unfairly. The same people that Jesus taught, healed and fed, forced a Roman Governor to sentence Him to death on a cross. Jesus died to take our sins on His shoulders. He paid the price for the wrongs we have done. Because He died in our place, we can find God's forgiveness. But the story did not end there! Jesus paid the price for our sins by dying on that cross. Three days later, He rose from the dead. Hundreds of witnesses saw Jesus alive again before he rose to heaven. They heard Jesus promise that when we accept Him here on earth, we would be able to be in heaven with Him when we die. Now, Jesus is willing to forgive our sins. He knows our weaknesses. He offers to make a way for us, but only if we will ask Him. If you want to be free from your sins, if you want to begin again, ask Him for forgiveness. It is not complicated. Simply talk to God and say, "Thank you, God, for loving me and sending your Son to die on the cross for the wrongs I have done. I am sorry for the things I have done that hurt You. I choose to make Jesus the Lord of my life. Help me to be the kind of person that You want me to be. In Jesus' Name, Amen." God Loves You! God wants a relationship with you. He made a way for us to find forgiveness and begin again. Start that relationship with him today!
