00:00:12.910 --> 00:00:18.489
Well today's message is all about who you say

00:00:18.489 --> 00:00:24.449
I am. Today's main scripture is Galatians 2 verse

00:00:24.449 --> 00:00:39.560
20. It says The life I now live in the flesh,

00:00:40.100 --> 00:00:44.960
I live by faith in the Son of God who loved me

00:00:44.960 --> 00:00:50.320
and gave himself for me. Christ is love. He died

00:00:50.320 --> 00:00:56.320
for us so that we can live in faith knowing that...

00:00:56.140 --> 00:00:59.340
we have Christ. And we also have to remember

00:00:59.340 --> 00:01:03.079
John 3 verse 16, for God so loved the world that

00:01:03.079 --> 00:01:06.260
he gave his only begotten son, for whoever believes

00:01:06.260 --> 00:01:09.239
in him shall not perish but have everlasting

00:01:09.239 --> 00:01:14.140
life. Our second scripture is 2 Corinthians 5

00:01:14.140 --> 00:01:19.200
verse 21. God made him who had no sin to be sin

00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:24.519
for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness

00:01:24.519 --> 00:01:29.480
of God. So God wanted to restore mankind to himself

00:01:29.480 --> 00:01:33.920
so that we can come before him without any barriers,

00:01:34.200 --> 00:01:37.439
without a prophet, without a priest, without

00:01:37.439 --> 00:01:40.579
going to the altar and sacrificing dogs. And

00:01:40.579 --> 00:01:43.819
how did he do that? He sent Jesus to atone for

00:01:43.819 --> 00:01:46.500
our sins and also to free us from the bondage

00:01:46.500 --> 00:01:51.159
of sin. What God did was that he sent Jesus on

00:01:51.159 --> 00:01:56.629
earth so that he could pay for our sins, the

00:01:56.629 --> 00:02:02.650
penalty, that we may find life in Jesus and have

00:02:02.650 --> 00:02:06.730
the Holy Spirit within us to dwell among us and

00:02:06.730 --> 00:02:09.250
anchor us in this Christian walk so that we can

00:02:09.250 --> 00:02:12.710
live righteously and we can come before God without

00:02:12.710 --> 00:02:16.770
any barriers or any obstacles. Our third scripture

00:02:16.770 --> 00:02:21.610
is John 14 verse six. It says, Jesus told him,

00:02:21.740 --> 00:02:26.020
I am the way, the truth and the life. No one

00:02:26.020 --> 00:02:30.340
comes to the Father except through me. We also

00:02:30.340 --> 00:02:35.159
have to understand no one can come to God except

00:02:35.159 --> 00:02:39.780
through Jesus Christ. So he is, Jesus is the

00:02:39.780 --> 00:02:44.020
only way to God and to get to heaven and he is

00:02:44.020 --> 00:02:48.280
the life because he alone makes us a new creation.

00:02:48.460 --> 00:02:52.750
So that is why Jesus is the only source. He is

00:02:52.750 --> 00:02:57.409
that bridge. So our points today are one, loving

00:02:57.409 --> 00:03:01.810
God. God loved us so much to die for us. And

00:03:01.810 --> 00:03:05.210
in Christ, we can come before God without any

00:03:05.210 --> 00:03:09.469
sin or blemishes in our hearts. Number two, a

00:03:09.469 --> 00:03:13.009
willing God. God was so willing to restore mankind

00:03:13.009 --> 00:03:17.810
to himself to give up himself, his only son to

00:03:17.810 --> 00:03:21.689
die in our place. Number three, the source. Jesus

00:03:21.689 --> 00:03:26.430
is the only way the factual truth and the everlasting

00:03:26.430 --> 00:03:30.349
life and that is the gospel truth my friend There

00:03:30.349 --> 00:03:33.629
is only one way to God and that is through Jesus

00:03:33.629 --> 00:03:37.349
Christ So when someone asks you who is Christ

00:03:37.349 --> 00:03:41.849
we can say he is the great I am Who was willing

00:03:41.849 --> 00:03:45.110
to lay down his life for us? So now we can come

00:03:45.110 --> 00:03:51.199
before God pure and clean in his sight so If

00:03:51.199 --> 00:03:54.080
you have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ,

00:03:54.560 --> 00:03:57.960
then this message will help you. But if you don't

00:03:57.960 --> 00:04:01.240
have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ,

00:04:01.639 --> 00:04:03.879
then I invite you to give your heart to the Lord

00:04:03.879 --> 00:04:07.879
today. To receive him into your heart, go to

00:04:07.879 --> 00:04:12.889
Romans 10, nine through 10. It says that if you

00:04:12.889 --> 00:04:16.790
confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe

00:04:16.790 --> 00:04:20.350
in your heart that God has raised him from the

00:04:20.350 --> 00:04:23.870
dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one

00:04:23.870 --> 00:04:26.930
believes unto righteousness and with the mouth

00:04:26.930 --> 00:04:31.050
confession is made unto salvation. If you said

00:04:31.050 --> 00:04:34.610
this prayer with sincerity, you are saved and

00:04:34.610 --> 00:04:37.870
now have eternal life with Jesus. You are saved

00:04:37.870 --> 00:04:42.860
from all your sins. past, present, and future

00:04:42.860 --> 00:04:47.240
sins you may commit. This truth is not a free

00:04:47.240 --> 00:04:50.439
pass to sin anytime. Instead, Jesus gives you

00:04:50.439 --> 00:04:54.199
power over all wrong choices and empowers you

00:04:54.199 --> 00:04:57.339
to spread the gospel to others. You are saved

00:04:57.339 --> 00:05:00.519
forever and your name is written in the book

00:05:00.519 --> 00:05:01.079
of life!
