Who is Jesus?
He is God and loves you.
Jesus said He was God. He proved it by His life, His words, His deeds, and His love. Ephesians 2:4–5 says, “But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in our wrongdoings, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved),” John 3:16 states, “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life.”
He died for you.
Our sin separates us from God and requires the payment of death (Romans 3:23, 6:23). Yet, because Jesus died for you, you don’t have to pay for your own sins! 1 Corinthians 15:3-4 says, “…that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures,” Romans 5:8 states, “But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”
He wants to give you life.
Here’s how Jesus said it in John 3:36: “The one who believes in the Son has eternal life; but the one who does not obey the Son will not see life…” and also in John 11:25, “I am the resurrection and the life; the one who believes in Me will live, even if he dies,”
He wants to save you.
Going to Heaven isn’t about being good or religious. It’s about trusting Jesus. Call out to Him, ask Him to come into your life, save you from sin, and give you His gift of eternal life. Romans 10:13 says, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
