--The Resurrection and the Gospel/ God's Holy Word / HOLY BIBLE ~
--WHY DID JESUS DIE ON THE CROSS?
~~Friend, Jesus died on the Cross for the forgiveness of your sins. Take the Bible personally. It is a Personal Love Letter from Jesus Christ to each person.
--"Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; 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, Namely that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation. Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were making an appeal through us; we beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God' [2 Corinthians 5:17-20]. "He hath made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.". —2 Corinthians 5:21--  ~~Augustine was one of the greatest theologians of all time. He was a wild, intemperate, immoral youth. In spite of his mother’s pleadings and prayers, he grew worse instead of better. But one day he had a personal encounter with Jesus Christ that transformed his life. His restlessness and the practice of sin disappeared. He became one of the great saints of all time. John Newton was a slave trader on the west coast of Africa. One day in a storm at sea he met Jesus Christ. He went back to England and became an Anglican clergyman. He wrote scores of hymns, one of which has become the modern popular song, “Amazing Grace.” This is what Christ can do for anyone who puts his trust in Him. --DECISION ~~--What Must I Do to be Saved [Born-Again]: "[By] The word of faith which we are preaching, that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; "For with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation. Whoever will call on the Name of the LORD [JESUS] will be saved." --[Romans 10:8,9,10,13] - **If you would like to talk to someone about Jesus, call toll free anytime 888-537-8720 /Evangelism Response Center ~ ERC~**
Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." [John 14:6]
