Man’s Problem
God is holy, pure, and just and must punish sin.
“For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness” (Romans 1:18).
We are all sinners!
“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23).
What we have earned for our sin and rebellion against God is death!
“For the wages of sin is death” (Romans 6:23).
When the Bible speaks of death, it refers not only to physical death but also God’s just judgment and wrath against the sinner.
“And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment” (Hebrews 9:27).
Worse yet, we can never do enough good works to outweigh the bad. We can never reach God’s perfect standard and earn His acceptance.
“But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags” (Isaiah 64:6).
God's Solution
What we could not do, God did for us. God the Father sent God the Son (Jesus Christ), who is fully God and fully man, to perfectly fulfill the law…
“But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth His Son, made of a woman, made under the law, to redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons” (Galatians 4:4-5).
…and die on the cross, fully paying the penalty of sin on behalf of all those who would ever believe in Him!
“For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the scriptures” (1 Corinthians 15:3-4).
This is The Gospel! We are saved, forgiven, and assured of eternal life when we trust in Jesus Christ and what He alone has done for our salvation.
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek” (Romans 1:16).
“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast” (Ephesians 2:8-9).
While eternal life is the gift of God and our good works play no part whatsoever in our right standing before God, good works come as a result of our salvation. When God saves us by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone, God the Holy Spirit indwells us, giving us a new heart with new affections. He enables us to turn away from sin more and more as we grow in our relationship with Him.
“For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them” (Ephesians 2:10).
Put your faith in Jesus Christ alone today! Faith in Jesus Christ is a saving grace, by which we receive and rest upon Him and His finished work alone for salvation.
