Why Do We Need Salvation

We are sinners and we have sinned before a Holy God. No one is perfect.
None has lived up to God's perfect standard.

"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;" (Romans 3:23)
"As it is written. There is none righteous, no, not one;" (Romans 3:10)

What is SIN ??

"And he (Jesus) said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man. For from within, out of the heart of men, procceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, decit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness: All these evil things come from within, and defile the man." (Mark7:20-23)

As sinners, we owe a penalty. The punishment for sin is not only physical death but also in the lake of fire which is the second death. If we pay what we owe as sinners, we must spend an eternity in the lake of fire.

"And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death." (Revelation 20:14)
"But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone : which is the second death." (Revelation 21:8)

The Bible is a book of love and hope. Christ has already paid our sin debt and it is a fact.

"But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Chirst died for us." (Romans 5:8)

Christ was not a sinner and Bible teaches that God took all our sins and place them on Him. Whilst Christ was bearing all of our sin in His own body, God punished Him in our place to pay the debt we owe. This is not something God promised to do. It is something He has already done. Salvation is a gift from God.

"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." (John 3:16)
"For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him."(2 Corinthians 5:21)

Salvation is a person who is Christ

"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life, no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."(John 14:6)

Salvation is not in a church, denomination, ritual or anything else.

"Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved."(Acts 4:12)

Salvation is not the result of man's good works but Christ's work on the cross.

"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast."(Ephesians 2:8-9)

The Bible tells us very clearly how to receive this salvation.

"That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."(Romans 10:9-10)

We must acceptby faith what Christ did for us. Those who believe will have everlasting life whilst those who do not believe will not see life. To believe on Christ means that we accept the fact that we are sinners, that as sinners we owe the sin penalty, and that Christ died on the cross to pay the debt we owe. But it means going one step further. It means that we will completely trust Christ to get us to Heaven, that we will put the matter of our salvation in His hands and depend on Him for everlasting life.

"He that beliebeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abideth on him."(John 3:36)

What are we to do about our sins?

"if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all righteousness."(1 John 1:9)

What is God's promise?

"For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."(Romans 10:13)

When we recieve Christ as Savoir, we have everlasting life with a promise of no future condemnation.

"Verily, verily, i say unto you, He that hearth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life."(John 5:24)
