Knowing Christ
Grace Heaven is a free gift.
God offers salvation to us for free!
For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God. Ephesians 2:8 NIV
Everyone is a sinner.
All of us are in the same boat; we are born estranged from God because of our sin.
...for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Romans 3:23 NIV
God is merciful and just.
God loves us and doesn’t want to punish us; however, because He is just He must punish sin.
...Yet He does not leave the guilty unpunished... Exodus 34:7 NIV
Jesus Christ-God in the flesh
Jesus is God, and at the cross He took the penalty for our sins so we could be reconciled to God.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. John 1:1-2 NIV
Faith Trusting in Jesus Christ alone
Faith is more than head knowledge; it is a complete transfer of trust by accepting His free gift of salvation.
...Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved... Acts 16:31 NIV
