You can have a new identity in Jesus Christ and a new life filled with forgiveness, meaning, and significance... Click on #2 above to continue.
No matter who you are, the Bible makes it clear that you are a sinner in desperate need of a Savior. Having no righteousness of your own, you can only be forgiven and made right with God by putting your faith in Jesus Christ alone - totally apart from your religion, devotion, personal merit or good works. Click on 3 above.
As your substitute, Jesus died on the cross and suffered the full punishment that you rightfully deserve. Your sins have been removed once and for all by His blood shed for you. He has taken away all of your guilt forever! As a result, He offers you the free gift of forgiveness of sins and eternal life without cost. Click on 4 above.
​"All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God and no one will be declared righteous in God’s sight by obeying the 10 commandments and the law of Moses (they can only reveal how sinful we really are). But now God has shown us a way of righteousness that comes to us apart from the law... This righteousness is given to us through faith in Jesus Christ to anyone who simply believes in Him. The moment we put our faith in Christ alone for forgiveness of sins, God pronounces that we are 'perfectly righteous' in His sight forever! It is God's free gift to us, purchased on the cross by Christ Jesus. God presented Him as a sacrifice of atonement through the shedding of his blood to be received by faith alone..." (Romans 3:20-25 paraphrase) Click 5 above.
The moment you believe that Jesus died for your sins and rose again, God no longer treats you as a sinner. Instead, He places you in an honored position in His royal family. Even though you deserve God's judgment and wrath, He treats you as pure, precious, and perfectly righteous in His sight forever! This becomes your new, unchanging, and eternal identity!

You may be surprised to learn that the Bible teaches that doing good things can never make us righteous in God's sight... Click on 2 above to continue.
This means that helping others, being religious, getting baptized, giving money, or going forward in a church service can never take away your sins or make you perfectly righteous before God!​ Click on 3 above.​
​It also means that confessing or feeling sorry for your sins can't save you, trying to keep the 10 commandments or promising to follow Jesus can't save you, surrendering your all or asking Jesus into your heart can't save you! ​
As unpleasant as it sounds, we all need to understand that even the best things we do are unacceptable to God!​ ​In fact, the good things we do often prevent us from getting right with God because they cause us to depend on our own worthiness, obedience, and devotion. But, the Bible says, "There is no one who is righteous, not even one... All our righteous deeds are like filthy rags." (Romans 3:10&23; Isaiah 64:6) Click on 5 above.
On the cross, Jesus Christ suffered and paid the full penalty for every sin you have ever committed or ever will commit! You can only be forgiven and made right with God through simple childlike faith (trust) in what Jesus has already done for you by His death and resurrection. “It's not by righteous things we have done, but by His mercy He saved us...it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast...This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe...Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved!" (Titus 3:5, Ephesians 2:8-9, Romans 3:21-22, Acts 16:31)

"All of the other leaders of the world's religions have died, never to be heard from again..."

ISLAM says that Jesus was a prophet, but inferior to Muhammad. BUDDHISM says He was a wise teacher, but not God. HINDUS say He was 'a god' but only one of many gods. JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES and MORMONS say He was an exalted angel, but deny His claims of Deity. Click on 2 above to continue. 
Referring to Jesus, the Bible says, “All things came into being through HIM and apart from HIM nothing came into being that has come into being...By HIM all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible. All things have been created through HIM and for HIM" (John 1:3, Colossians 1:16). Click on 3 above.
The Bible tells us that Jesus is the Creator of life. All of the leaders of the world's religions have died, never to be heard from again. Jesus not only died (to take away all of our sins), but He came back to life three days later! The Creator of life died and rose again to give us life!​ Click 4 above.​
Jesus Christ is “GOD overall, forever praised! GOD revealed in a body! The True GOD and Eternal Life! God with us! The Mighty GOD! The Everlasting Father! The Prince of Peace!" Jesus said, "Unless you believe that I AM HE, you will die in your sins." (John 1:1, Romans 9:5, 1 Timothy 3:16, 1 John 5:20, Isaiah 7:14 & 9:6, John 8:24)​ Click 5 above.
The Creator of the universe revealed Himself in a human body and died as a sacrifice for your sins. Jesus loved you so much that He willingly suffered the punishment you deserved, in your place! "Anyone who believes in Him, receives forgiveness of sins through His name" (Acts 10:43).

​​Is it possible to lose your salvation? Will God ever turn His back on one of His children? The answer is wonderful, reassuring, and comforting! ​Click on Part 2 above to continue.
The words "eternal" and "everlasting" occur 120 times in the Bible. By their very definition they mean that which lasts forever, never ends, and can never be cut short or lost. God Himself is eternal and everlasting, His Word is eternal and everlasting, and His unchanging promise to those who simply believe in Jesus Christ alone, is eternal and everlasting life as a permanent possession! Click on Part 3 above.
Titus 1:2 says, "God, who cannot lie, promised us eternal life before the world began" and you can be sure that He will never go back on His Word! "Whoever believes in Him will not perish, but have everlasting life... All those the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never drive away... This is the will of Him who sent me, that I shall lose none of all those He has given me, but will raise them up on the last day... My Father’s will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in Him shall have eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day." (John 3:16, 6:37, 6:39, 6:40, 6:47). Click Part 4 above.
"Very truly I tell you, the one who believes has eternal life... My sheep hear my voice, I know them, they follow Me and, I give unto them eternal life and they will never perish... Nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death or life, neither angels or demons... Not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. No power in the sky above or in the earth below— indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord." (John 3:16b, 6:40&47, 10:27-30; Romans 8:38&39)

Have you ever heard someone say, "Salvation is free, but it will cost you everything" or "If Jesus is not Lord of all, He is not Lord at all"? These clichés have been repeated so often, many people assume they are true. Click on 2 above to continue.
​These clever sounding sayings are actually misleading and unbiblical because they imply that we are saved, not by faith in Jesus Christ alone, but by paying some kind of price or cost, or making some kind of personal sacrifice, or being submissive and obedient, or doing good works, etc. ​When a preacher, teacher, or evangelist tells an unsaved person that they need to completely submit, surrender or promise to be obedient, they are asking them to do the impossible! ​Even worse, they are asking them to do what God has not asked them to do! Click on 3 above.
​​​​​​The Bible makes it clear that an unbeliever is utterly powerless to do anything righteous or pleasing to God (Romans 8:8, Isaiah 64:6, Jeremiah 17:9-10). If personal righteousness, submission and devotion are necessary for a person to be saved, then no one could be saved. "There is no one righteous, not even one. There is no one who does good, no one who seeks God..." (Romans 3:10-12). Click on 4 above.
Our attempts at submission and obedience are not only inadequate, but they are tainted and polluted by our inherent sinfulness. They are offensive and utterly unacceptable to God! The only one who who can save us from our sin and self-righteousness is Jesus Christ. Only His death on the cross is accepted by God the Father as payment for our sins! Click on 5 above.
The Bible makes it clear that we are only made right with God by simple childlike faith in Jesus Christ alone - totally apart from our personal submission, devotion, and obedience. It's is only after we are saved by grace that the Holy Spirit begins to produce His fruit in our lives. ​Read another article about this subject, here.

"Meeting the Messiah"
An Outcast Meets Jesus

Jesus, tired as He was from the journey, sat down by the well (Jacob's well). It was about 12 o'clock noon. When a Samaritan woman came to draw water, Jesus said to her, “Will you give me a drink?” 
The Samaritan woman said, “You are a Jew and I am a Samaritan woman. How can you ask me for a drink?” (For Jews do not associate with Samaritans.) ​Jesus answered, “If you knew the gift of God and who it is that asks you for a drink, you would have asked Him and He would have given you living water.” 
​“Sir,” the woman said, “you have nothing to draw with and the well is deep. Where can you get this living water? Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well...?” Jesus answered, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.”
​...The woman said, “I know that Messiah” (called Christ) “is coming. When He comes, He will explain everything to us.” Then Jesus declared, “I, the one speaking to you—I am He.”
The "living water" that Messiah offered this woman without cost represents forgiveness of sins and eternal life. "I will give to the one who is thirsty, the fountain of the water of life freely... Let the one who is thirsty come; and let the one who wishes take the free gift of the water of life." (Revelation 21:6, 22:17)

Most people start in the book of Genesis, but when they get to Leviticus or Deuteronomy, they often give up. What they may not realize is that there's a better place to begin! [Click on 2 above to continue]
​Every book of the Bible was written to a specific audience, for a specific purpose, at a specific time. As a result, some books are more pertinent and relevant to us than others. Two of these books, the Gospel of John and the Book of Romans, are primary and foundational. These two books hold the key to understanding the message and meaning of the entire Bible. [Click on 3 above]
​The Gospel of John was written to present an accurate and easy-to-understand biography of the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. John records several personal interactions Jesus had with people just like us. He also includes word pictures and illustrations that are simple to comprehend and yet profound in their meaning. [Click #4 above]
​The Book of Romans was written to explain the most essential truths of the Bible. As a result, it helps us understand the Old Testament, the four New Testament Gospels and the Book of Acts. Therefore, Romans is the starting point for all Bible study! [Click on 5 above]
Here is a simple 21-day plan for reading the Gospel of John. Just read one chapter of the Gospel of John each day. If you miss a day, just pick up where you left off the next day. If you have difficulty understanding a chapter, read it twice.
Our 21-day plan for Romans is a little different. Start by reading Romans 3:19-31 & Romans 4:1-8 once a day for the first five days. Note: These two passages are most important! Then, on day six, begin with chapter one and read one chapter each day until you finish chapter 16. If you have any difficulty understanding a chapter, read it twice. If you have any questions, let us know. The Gospel of John and the Book of Romans are life-changing! If you follow through and complete both 21 day plans, I assure you that you will experience God's grace and power in new and dynamic ways.
