Know Jesus

Some called him teacher, some called him prophet, some called him Messiah...... WHAT DO YOU CALL HIM?

  1. The world was good: God created everything good. There were not any problems. God had a very good relationship with mankind.

  2. How did the world become not good? But mankind wanted to be king instead of God. This is sin because that dishonoured God. The punishment for sin is death and then eternal Hell. Our world is filled with problems.

  1. What must we do to be set free? On the 3rd day, Jesus rose from the dead. By this he proved that he indeed has power over death. If you turn from sin and believe in Jesus, you will be set free from the punishment of sin. But if you don’t believe, you will receive the punishment for your own sin. That punishment is eternal hell.

  2. How will God restore everything? One day, Jesus will return and will restore everything. If you believe in Jesus, even though you will physically die; you will be physically resurrected and have eternal life. God will dwell with believers forever in the new Earth, where there will be no more problems, sin, and death.

  1. How are we trying to escape? We have many problems because we turned away from God. We tried to escape problems through religion, relationships, and money. But none of these can help us.

  2. How did God solve our problem? At the right time, Jesus, who is God, became man and was born into our world. He lived a sinless life and suffered death on a cross so that we can be free from the coming judgment. Jesus suffered punishment for our sin.
