The Good News is that God loves you and has a plan for your life!

God's Word, The Bible, tells us of God's Love and His plan.

God's Love:
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. (John 3:16)

God's Plan:
The thief comes only to steal, and kill, and destroy; I came that they might have life, and might have it abundantly. (John 10:10)

Man's Sin:
For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. (Romans 3:23)

Man's Separation from God:
For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 6:23)

Christ died in our place:
But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. (Romans 5:9)

Christ arose from the dead:
For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, and that He appeared to Cephas and then to the twelve. After that He appeared to more than five hundred brethren at one time, most of whom remain until now but some have fallen asleep. (1 Corinthians 15:3-6)

Christ is the only way to God:
Jesus said to him "I am the way, the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through me. (John 14:6)

Believing in Christ as personal Saviour and Lord:
But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name. (John 1:12)

Receiving Christ through Faith:
For by grace you have been saved through faith:and that not of yourselves, it it the gift of God; not as a result of works, that no one should boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9)

Experiencing a new birth:
Jesus answered and said unto him "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God. (John 3:3)

What must we do?
Confess sin. Believe that Jesus Christ died for your sin. Receive Jesus Christ as personal Lord and Saviour.

What God does:
Gives you eternal life.
He who has the Son of God has the life; He who does not have the Son of God does not have the life. These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, in order that you may know that you have eternal life. ( 1 John 5:12-13)

gives you a new nature.
Therefore if any man is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come. Now all these things are from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ, and gave us the ministry of reconciliation. (2 Corinthians 5:17-18)

Adopts you as His child.
But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name, who were born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. (John 1:12-13)

Comes to live within you.
And the one who keeps His commandments abides in Him, and He in him. And we know by this that He abides in us, by the Spirit which He has given us. (1John 3:24)
