GOD'S RESCUE PLAN - BECOMING A CHRISTIAN

Dear Friend,

God created the world, with all its beauty, for people like you to enjoy. He also created men and women so they could share in a loving relationship with Him.

Ever since God formed you in your mother’s womb, He has known you and everything about you. God has even counted the number of hairs on your head. He also knows when you rise and when you sit down.

Sadly, men and women turn away from Him and most deliberately choose not to know God – their loving Creator. The Bible says that the evidence of God’s eternal power and divine nature may be plainly seen in the wonders of creation. God has also given each person a conscience that speaks to them of right and wrong. Throughout your life you have suffered the results of wrong actions, both from the hands of others and by your own choices.

Although many bad things have happened to you, you are nevertheless responsible for your own actions and the choices you make as you go through life. When you have lied, stolen, cheated, or deceived others, the person you offended the most by these actions was GOD Himself. The Bible calls such actions "SIN" and all your unforgiven sin will one day be judged by God. The Bible says:"For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God". No-one is blameless.

sin warningGod hates sin because he is Holy (perfect). Sadly, your sin separates you from God and the loving relationship He seeks with you. All sin will, one day, be punished so this puts you in great danger. But the GOOD NEWS is that God is - even now - ready, willing and able to forgive your sins and remove that separation. This forgiveness by God restores the opportunity for you to have a loving relationship with God your creator. Are you prepared to turn from your present way of life, change direction and turn to God your creator for a fresh start? In doing this, God calls you to stop trusting in and relying upon everything you have, and surrender your life to Him. So your old life has to go when you take this step. However, God promises to give you His power to enable you to live a new life.

Have you heard of Jesus Christ of Nazareth? Hundreds of years before He was born into this world, many prophets wrote about His coming. These prophecies telling of Jesus’ coming are all in the Bible, a book about Him. Jesus’ coming to Earth from Heaven was according to God’s saving plan for all mankind.

 

ambulance with flashing lightJesus Christ of Nazareth was sent by God the Father, out of love, into the world on a mission to rescue men and women. In obedience to God’s plan Jesus lived a sinless life, yet He willingly gave up His life and died on a cross to rescue you and me. By his death and resurrection three days later, Jesus broke the power of sin and death. After He rose from the dead, Jesus was seen alive again by hundreds of people.

 

By His death on a cross, Jesus paid the price for your sin and mine. The Bible says: "But God shows his love for us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us."

 

Jesus gave himself up as a sacrifice on our behalf by taking upon himself God’s punishment that our sins deserve. Jesus is now alive for evermore and sits at the right hand of God the Father in Heaven, in a place of glory and honour.

 

Do you want Jesus to rescue you from your sins and your present way of life? The Bible says: "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."

If you choose to call upon Jesus to save you, He will set you free, give you eternal life and a place in God’s family. Because Jesus was sinless, yet paid the price due for your sin - in your place - you can trust in Him as your substitute and go free. So you do not have to suffer the consequences of your own sins. God is then able to help you live a new life, by His power. The Bible says: "For it is by grace you are saved, through faith, and this not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, so that none can boast". God offers you His forgiveness as a free gift.

 

Jesus gives new life by His Spirit, which sets people free and brings them into God’s kingdom.

 

god will judge through JesusAt the end of your life, Jesus will hold you alone responsible for all your unforgiven sins and you will be judged accordingly.If you choose to hold on to your sin, refusing Jesus’ free offer of forgiveness, you will bear the consequences on your own head – the wrath (anger) of God for eternity.

 

If you choose instead to ask Jesus to forgive your sins NOW, He will do so and set you free from sin’s controlling power, He will wipe the slate clean and give you a fresh start. You can know total forgiveness of all the sins you have ever committed.

 

There is NO sin you have committed that Jesus cannot forgive, as He is "all-powerful" and "all-forgiving". Jesus said: "I and the Father are one." The sins He forgives in this life are forgiven, and forgotten, for eternity.

 

your debt is cancelled by Jesus

 

The choice today is yours. Do you wish, whether you realise it or not, to remain a slave of sin? Or do you choose Jesus? Realise who this Jesus is. He is God, the one who died for you and offers you total forgiveness, peace and joy – now! The Bible says: "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved"

 

One day all men and women will stand before Jesus, the Judge of all mankind. The Bible says: "…man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgement…". Jesus alone has been given all power and authority in judgement by God the Father. Jesus therefore will decide where you will spend eternity. Although our human bodies eventually give out and die, our spirits live on beyond death.

 

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU DIE?coffin

 

We all live on after death and the Bible makes clear that we end up in one of two places:

  • A place of weeping, suffering and eternal separation from God for those who reject Him, or
  • A place of eternal peace, love and joy in the presence of God, your creator.

After this life is over the chance to choose Jesus will be gone, so you need to choose Him NOW, before it is too late! The Bible says: "Today is the day of salvation."
