The
STORY:

 |
Man
in Sin is separated from God
The figure on the left represents every person
like you and me. The darkness represents our sin. Sin is
anything that God tells us not to do.
The Bible says, all have sinned and fall short of the
glory of God. Our sins separate us from
God.
Rom 3:23 KJV) For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
The heavenly radiance on the right represents God. God
is perfect and without sin. God loves us. God does not
want us to perish, but to have everlasting life. Our
sins must be removed in order to have eternal life with
God. |
| Christ
on the Cross |
 |
| God
loved us so much that He sent His only Son Jesus Christ
to earth as a man. God made Jesus die on a cross to pay
for our sins with His blood. He took our sins into His
body on the cross so that we could come to God. |
(1 Pet 2:24 KJV) Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
(1 Pet 3:18 KJV) For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit:
(Rom 5:8 KJV) But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
The Bible also says that:
(John 3:16 KJV) For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
|
| The
Tomb |
 |
| Men
buried Jesus in a tomb. They rolled a huge stone in
front of it. The soldiers guarded the tomb. |
| CHRIST
IS RISEN |
 |
God
sent an angel to roll away the huge stone and to scare
away the soldiers.
God raised Jesus from the dead!
Soon afterward, God took Jesus back to heaven
Jesus has paid the price for our sins, and Jesus has
conquered death.
|
| The
Cross is the Bridge to God |
 |
|
Jesus
is the only way we can come to God. Jesus says in the
Bible,
(John
14:6 KJV) Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth,
and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Through Jesus, we can be forgiven of all our sins and be
with God forever. But just knowing about these things is
not enough! We must choose to put our faith in Jesus -
to trust in Him to save us from sin.
If you do not take the step of trusting in Jesus, then
your sins are not removed!
(Heb
4:2 KJV) For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as
unto them: but the word preached did not profit them,
not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.
|
| The
Choices: Heaven or Hell |
 |
|
The
Bible says that whoever believes in Jesus has eternal
life and is not judged.
(John 3:16 KJV) For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
(John 3:18 KJV) He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
(John 3:36 KJV) He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.
This means that the penalty for sin is death, but eternal life through
Jesus is a free gift from God.
What
choice will you make?
Trust in Jesus Christ to be forgiven and have eternal
life.

Steps
for followers of Christ
 Love God and all people
You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart,
and with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is
the great and foremost commandment. And a second is like
it: you shall love your neighbor as yourself.
(Mat 22:36 KJV) Master, which is the great commandment in the law?
(Mat 22:37 KJV) Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
(Mat 22:38 KJV) This is the first and great commandment.
(Mat 22:39 KJV) And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
(Mat 22:40 KJV) On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

Pray to God constantly
In prayer you can thank and worship God, ask for His
help, confess your sins, and pray for others. ?Be
anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and
supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be
made known to God.

 Study
the Bible (God's Word) Daily
Start with the Gospel of John; read chapter 1 each day.
1 Pet 2:2 KJV) As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:
(John 14:23 KJV) Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.
|
Meet regularly with other Christians
God commands that Christians meet regularly for worship,
prayer, Bible Study, and helping each other.
(Heb 10:25 KJV) Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching. |
