8.1 billion people in this world –do I really matter?
Does anyone care about me?
Am I loved?
Is there a God?
If there’s a heaven, how can I go there?
Who is Jesus?
What is the significance of the cross?
Can I be forgiven?
“I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made...” Psalms 139:14
“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.” Jeremiah 29:11
A CREATOR, A CROSS, A CONNECTION
A Creator
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. Genesis 1:1
The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Psalms 19:1
So, God created man in his own image…Genesis 1:27
A Cross
You and I are sinners, and it’s our sin that separates us from God. If the cross tells us anything, it says that sin is destructive and leads to a tragic end. It tells us that Jesus is a merciful Savior, and He'll go to any length to change our story. It tells us that our lives only have meaning when we look to Jesus to save us from ourselves, our sinful condition, and our fate.
The Cross accomplished that!
It’s on the cross that Jesus died to pay the penalty for your sin.
It’s DONE you know? The gift of heaven cannot be earned, but it must be received.
A Connection
When Jesus came out of the tomb three days later, His resurrection proved His power over sin and death and became the access point to eternal life in heaven. His shed blood forgives and removes our sins forever - as far as the east is from the west. Psalms 103:12
Is this life for you?
It is indeed, provided you come to Jesus and ask Him to save you.
For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Romans 10:13
Selah
