No matter how good a life we try to live, we still fall miserably short of being a good person. That is because we are all sinners. The Bible says in ROMANS 3:10 “No one is good, not even one.” We cannot become who we are supposed to be without Jesus Christ.

The Bible tells us in ROMANS 5:8 that “God showed His great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners.” This is the Good News, that God loves us so much that He sent His only Son to die in our place when we least deserved it.

The Bible tells us in ACTS 3:19 “Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, so that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord," The word repent means to change our direction in life. Instead of running from God, we can run toward Him.

Becoming a Christian is not merely believing some creed or going to church. It is having Christ Himself take residence in your life and heart. Jesus said in REVELATION 3:20 “Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in . . .”
