Evangelism: The Bridge

"For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord."
Romans 6:23 [NLT]

God wants to have a relationship with us.

However, we have rebelled against Him and broken off that relationship.

Most of us are aware of this and try to do things to get back to God, but it doesn't work.

Furthermore, the sins we have committed have to be punished, and that punishment is death.

But God did for us what we could not do, and that is build a bridge back to Himself.

He did that by paying our death penalty when He died on the cross.

One last thing.  It is not enough just to know this.  We must act on it by admitting that we have rebelled and by telling God that we want His forgiveness and leadership.

Where do you stand?
