1. Humanity’s problem

Romans 3:10 There is no one righteous, not even one.

Romans 3:23 For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.

Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life in Jesus Christ our Lord.

2.Humanity’s Hope in Christ

Romans 5:8 But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

2 Corinthians 5:21 For God made Christ who never sinned to be the sin offering for our sin so that we could be made right with God through Christ. 

3. The Sinner’s Response

Romans 10:9-10 If you declare with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord,’ and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.

Romans 10:13 For everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.

4. The Result of Salvation

Romans 5:1-2 Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand.

Romans 8:1 Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.

2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come. The old has gone. The new is here.
…the old life is gone. A new life has begun.

That is THE GOOD NEWS! He did what we couldn’t do and he offers salvation to us freely.

The gospel is the Good News that God became man in Jesus Christ. He lived the life we should have lived and died the death we should have died in our place. Three days later He rose from the dead proving that He is the Son of God and offering salvation and forgiveness of sins for everyone who repents and believes in Him. 

John 10:10 Jesus said, The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.

2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish,  but everyone to come to repentance.

Christ is your firm foundation
2 Peter 5:10 In his kindness God called you to share in his eternal glory by means of Christ Jesus. So after you have suffered a little while, he will restore, support, and strengthen you, and he will place you on a firm foundation. All power to him forever! Amen.

Romans 8:28 And we know that in all things God works to the good of those who love Him and have been called according to his purpose.
