1. YOU HAVE A PROBLEM

 

If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not   in us.1 John 1:8.

 

The wages of sin is death. Romans 6:23.

 

We will all stand before God’s judgment seat. It is written: As I live, says the Lord, every knee will bow before me; every tongue will confess  to God. So then, each of us will give an account of himself  to God.   Romans 14:1042.

 

Whoever puts his faith in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects  the Son will not see that life, for God’s wrath remains on him.  John 3:36.

 

The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men. Romans 1:18.

 

2  YOU CANNOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM

 

 A man is not justified by observing the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ.  If righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for  nothing! Galatians 2:16,21.

 

God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 

Rom. 5:8.

 

Jesus said: I am the way and the truth and the life. . . no-one comes  to the Father except through me. John 14:6.

 

Salvation is found in no-one else; for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved. Acts 4:12.

 

It is by grace you have been saved, through faith  and this not from  yourselves, it is the gift of God not by works, so that no-one can  boast. Ephesians 2:8-9.

 

 

3  GOD HAS SOLVED YOUR PROBLEM

 

   

God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that  whoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. John 3:16-17.

 

This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. 1 John 4:10.

 

When the kindness and love of God our Saviour appeared, he saved  us, not because of righteous things we had done, but  because of his  mercy. Titus 3:4-5.

 

Christ died for your sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous,  to bring you to God. 

1 Peter 3:18.

 

The gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord.   Romans 6:23.

 

 4 YOUR PROBLEM IS SOLVED FOR EVER

 

Jesus said: Whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me  has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from  death to life. John 5:24.

 

In Christ we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of  sins.   Ephesians 1:7.

 

Jesus lives for ever.., therefore he is able to save completely those   who  come to God through him, because he always lives to    intercede for   them. Hebrews 7:24-25.

 

If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new  has come.  

2 Corinthians 5:17.

 

He is able to keep you from falling and to present you before his   glorious presence without fault and with great joy. Jude 24.

 

 

 

THEREFORE

 

1. Turn from sin

 

God commands all people everywhere to repent. Acts 17:30.

 

Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out.   Acts 3:19.

 

2. Trust in Christ

 

Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved. Acts 16:31.

Jesus said: Stop doubting and believe . . . Blessed are those who  have  not seen and yet have believed. John 20:27,29.

 

Whoever puts his faith in the Son has eternal life. John 3:36.

 

3. Acknowledge Christ before men

 

If you confess with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.  Romans 10:9.
