God's Plan of Salvation

God's Plan of Salvation: 

God's Plan of Salvation The Bible says there is only one way to Heaven: Jesus said: "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father but by me." (John 14:6). In other words, the way to possess eternal life is to possess God’s Son.

How can a person have the Son of God?: 

How can a person have the Son of God? God is holy and God is love. His holiness demands that our sin be punished in full. His love provides a way for us to be saved from this punishment. How is this possible?.

PowerPoint Presentation: 

Someone was willing to suffer what we deserve. Our substitute had to be a sinless man, able to suffer the full wrath of God against our sin. The only one able to take our place was God’s Son, Jesus Christ . 2 Corinthians 5:21 He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him .

PowerPoint Presentation: 

But Christ came to this earth to help you and me escape from sin through His grace and strength and thus to gain eternal life when He comes again. When we love Christ and submit ourselves to Him, He promises to unite our heart with His heart; our will is then merged with His will; our mind becomes one with His; and God’s law becomes our delight. “I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart.” Psalms 40:8. “Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.” Psalms 119:11.

Good works cannot save you : 

Good works cannot save you Scripture also teaches that no amount of human goodness, human works, human morality, or religious activity can gain acceptance with God or get anyone into heaven. The moral man, the religious man, and the immoral and non-religious are all in the same boat .

PowerPoint Presentation: 

They all fall short of God’s perfect righteousness. Before God, we all stand naked, helpless, and hopeless in ourselves. No amount of good living will get us to heaven or give us eternal life.

Titus 3:5-7 “ He saved us, not on the basis of deeds which we have done in righteousness, but according to His mercy, by the washing of regeneration and richly through Jesus Christ our Savior, (7) that being justified by His grace we might be made heirs ”

Trust Jesus Christ today! : 

Trust Jesus Christ today! Here's what you must do: 1. Admit you are a sinner: Our sin separates us from God who is perfect holiness (righteousness and justice) and God must therefore judge sinful man. Habakkuk 1:13a Thine eyes are too pure to approve evil, And Thou canst not look on wickedness with favor. "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;" (Romans 3:23 )

Jesus said: "I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish." (Luke 13:5) "And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:" (Acts 17:30) 2. Be willing to turn from sin (repent)

What we do not overcome will overcome us : 

What we do not overcome will overcome us If we choose to sin, we are servants of sin and in bondage to its creator--the Devil . And the wages which the Devil pays his servants is not sufficient to live on- -"for the wages of sin is death" (Romans 6:23). But if we choose instead to serve God, then we are set free from sin through Christ. And what Christ gives to His faithful followers is sufficient to live on- -for the "gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" Romans 6:23.
