WHY DID JESUS COME TO EARTH?
He Came for You!!!
GOD SENT HIS SON BECAUSE HE LOVES YOU AND HAS A PURPOSE FOR YOU!
John 3:16 “For God so loved the world, that He gave his one and only son, that
whoeverbelieves in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
“He loves you and wants you to have eternal life”
HOWEVER, YOU NEED SALVATION
Romans 3:23 “For all have sinned and fallen 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”
“You cannot save yourself”
BUT, GOD HAS PROVIDED FOR YOU
Romans 5:8 “But God demonstrated his own love for us in this: while
we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”
“Jesus Christ died for your sins”
SALVATION IS A FREE GIFT BUT YOU MUST RESPOND!
Romans 10:9-10 “That if you confess 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 confess and are saved.”
“Turn from your sins today and ask Jesus to forgive you”
THIS CAN BE YOUR PRAYER OF COMMITMENT
“Dear Lord Jesus, I know I am a sinner and do not deserve eternal life. But, I believe You died and rose from the grave to purchase a place in heaven for me. Lord Jesus, come into my life; take control of my life, forgive my sins and save me. I am sorry and want to turn from my sinful ways and place my trust totally in You for my salvation. I accept the free gift of eternal life.”
“If you prayed this prayer I would suggest you get a New Testament in a Modern English Translation and begin to read it through. You can tackle the Old Testament later but I think you need to read about the Person of Jesus and it is found in the New Testament writings. Begin to pray to Him everyday and find a church that preaches the Word of God – no exceptions. See you in Heaven or perhaps at Community Church this Sunday!

2 Cor 5:17 (NLT) What this means is that those who become Christians become new persons. They are not the same anymore, for the old life is gone. A new life has begun!
