Something for Nothing

Here is some very good news about a free gift.  Maybe that makes you suspicious.

"Is it really is free?  What is the catch?" you may ask.

Yes, it really is free!

There is nothing you could do to deserve it.  It is God's free gift of salvation.

The gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ. (Romans 6:23 )
That means we can have all our sins forgiven and be sure of living with God for ever.
Perhaps you think you don't need salvation.  "I am no worse than anyone else!  Why tell me I need to be saved? you may say.
It is easy to feel good if you only compare yourself with other people - but when we measure ourselves against God's perfect standard we do not measure up.

For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.  (Romans 3:23 )
So what IS the good news?
The good news is that God himself has provided a way for sinners to be forgiven and saved.  In Jesus Christ, God took sinners' punishment and the death they deserved, and now salvation is given freely to all who are sorry for their sins and commit their lives to Jesus Christ.

Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved.  (Acts 16:31 ) If you want to know more, please contact us.
