He has a wonderful plan for your life! GODS LOVE ~ "For God so loved the
world that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not
perish but have eternal life." John 3:16 GODS PLAN ~ "Now this is eternal
life; that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom
You have sent." John 17:3 Yet, people are sinful and separated from God,
so we cannot know Him personally or experience His love "...all have
sinned and fall short of the glory of God" Romans 3:23 " People were
created to have fellowship with God; but because of stubborn self-will, we
chose to go our own way and fellowship with God was broken. This
self-will, characterized by an attitude of active rebellion or passive
indifference, is evidence of what the Bible calls sin. So people are
separated because of this......" "For the wages of sin is death..."
(Spiritual separation from God) Romans 6:23 Yet, Jesus Christ is God's
only provision for man's sin. Through Him alone we can know God personally
and experience His love and good plan for our lives. "But God demonstrates
His own love for us in this: that while we were still sinners, Christ died
for us." Romans 5:8 Because Jesus rose from the dead to give us eternal
life with God in Heaven. ".....Christ died for our sins...He was
buried....He was raised on the 3rd day according to the Scriptures...He
appeared to Peter, then to the Twelve. After that he appeared to more than
500..." 1 Corinthians 15:3-6 Jesus is the ONLY way to God folks....."
"Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, and the truth, and the life; NO ONE
comes to the Father, but through Me." John 14:6 So we must individually
receive Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord of our lives; then we can know God
personally and experience His love and plan for us. "Yet to all who
received Him, to those who BELIEVED in His name, He gave the right to
become children of God." John 1:12 Because we receive Christ through FAITH
ALONE, in CHRIST ALONE. "For it is by grace you have been saved, through
faith, and this is not of yourselves, it is the gift of God, not by works,
so that no one can boast." Ephesians 2:8-9 When we receive Christ, we
experience a NEW birth. Read John 3 We receive Christ by personal
invitation ~ "Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My
voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with
Me." Revelation 3:20
