Everyone has sin in their lives.

• Sin keeps us from having a relationship with God.
• The Bible defines sin as going against the standards God has set for us.

Romans 3:23 | Galatians 5:19-24 | John 3:36 | Mark 16:16

Sin must be punished.

• The result of sin is death. Sin causes us to live a life separated from God.

Isaiah 53:6 | Romans 6:23 | 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 |  James 1:15 |  John 3:3 | Romans 5:12 | Mark 16:16 | Luke 13:3

The Good News

• God provided the only solution for our sin, Jesus.
• Jesus died on the cross to pay for all of our sin. If we accept Jesus’ free gift, our sins are covered and are forgiven.
• Jesus gives us hope and a future.

• He came to earth born as a baby and grew to be a man.
• He willingly died on a cross for our sin.
• He saves us from having to die for our sin because He took the punishment for our sin.
