Good News

The Gospel (Good News) is so simple you have to have help to miss it.

• Works are of NO value! You can't earn your way to heaven. "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith--and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God--not by works, so that no one can boast." Eph 2:8-9 (NIV)
• It is not about religion or how often you go to church. It is about a relationship.
  

Here is the simple version of the 'Good News'.

• We have all sinned and need a way to get back into right relationship with God. "for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" Romans 3:23 (NIV)
• God loves us so much that He provided the way for us to get back into that right relationship. "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son (Jesus), that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16 (NIV)
• All we have to do is accept by faith the free gift that God provided. We do that by accepting Jesus Christ as our personal savior and putting Him in charge of our life which gets us back into right relationship with God.
• It actually is that simple. When we realize that we will spend eternity with God because of what Jesus freely did for us, we will serve Him because we want to not because we have to.
