God’s Love In Action: Jesus Christ Paid The Penalty of Death

Artice 3 of 3

by Rev. Michael Johnson

John 3:16 says it all. “For God so loved the world that he gave His one and only son, that whoever believes in him shall not die but have life eternal.” You know the story. Jesus was born of a virgin, and went about doing good teaching and performing healings, deliverances, and miracles until he willingly surrendered his life to suffer. He was beaten, abused, ridiculed, spit on, shamed and ultimately crucified. His blood poured out of his wounds until he left willingly from His own body and died. No one took his life he released himself  from his own body and paid the penalty for all of mankind entering into death, the grave and hell in the place of all humanity; past present and future. He went to hell for 3 days and 3 nights until that triumphant morning he resurrected and was seen of many. He did this so you, me and anyone else would not have to.

Approaching God by Faith.

Our Approach to God should be with a believing heart. Believing in your heart is a lot more intimate than agreeing with a fact in your mind. It is Trusting what he said and revealed about himself through his written word so deeply that we act upon it. This is called Faith.

Hebrews 11:6

Without faith it is impossible to please God because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.

Jesus Christ is “The Answer” for you:

Friend, I have carefully laid out for you the facts of the condition of mankind and the need for the gift of salvation that Jesus Christ sacrificed His life to make available to you.

Have you ever made Jesus Christ the Lord of your life?

Take this next bold step so that you can receive the gift of salvation and enter the Kingdom of the lord Jesus Christ the kingdom of light and start a new life in Christ. Pray this Simple Prayer.

Prayer of Salvation

Dear God,

I come to you in the name of Jesus the Christ. I admit that I am not right with You, and I want to be right with You. I ask You to forgive me of all my sins. The Bible says if I confess with my mouth that “Jesus the Christ is Lord,” and believe in my heart that God raised Him from the dead, I will be saved (Rom. 10:9). I believe with my heart and I confess with my mouth that Jesus the Christ is the Lord and Savior of my life.

Thank You for saving me. In Jesus Name I pray. Amen.

If you prayed this prayer for the first time, we would like to know so that we can send you a special gift to help you on your new life’s Journey. CLICK HERE to send us an e-mail or share your testimony.
