HOW DO I FIT INTO THE BIG PICTURE STORY?
G - GOD
The Holy Maker of all things, made us in His image to enjoy fellowship with Him.
O - OUR
Our collective failure was lusting for His job, wanting His control and authority. Our sins. Our mutiny. Our corrupted nature.
S - SINS
Sin is the death within, our nature we are born with. No good deeds can undo this death.
P - PAYMENT
Sin brings death. It's the penalty of sin. Our only hope is if someone pays our sins for us. But they can't have any of their own. Jesus paid for our sins.
E - EVERYONE
Everyone is born guilty, but everyone is invited to receive the gift of Christ's payment for their sins. Trust in His free gift by grace alone through faith alone.
L - LIFE
When we are forgiven, we receive the promise of eternal life in Jesus with Him as Savior and Lord. This gift can't be taken away.
