Follow Jesus
We were created to know God, walk with Him, and live in the fullness of His love. But every one of us has fallen short. We've chosen our own way over God's, and that separation—called sin—leaves us empty, searching, and in need of rescue. The truth is, we can't fix ourselves or earn our way back to God. But the good news is this: God didn’t leave us there.
The Problem
Every one of us has sinned. That sin separates us from a holy God and leads to spiritual death. No matter how hard we try, we can’t save ourselves. Left on our own, we’re stuck—disconnected from the very One we were made for.
“For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.”
— Romans 3:23
“For the wages of sin is death...”
— Romans 6:23
The Solution
God, in His mercy, made a way. He sent Jesus—His Son—to live a perfect life and die in our place. Jesus took on our sin, endured the punishment we deserved, and then rose from the dead, conquering sin and death once and for all. Through Him, we are offered forgiveness, freedom, and the gift of new life—not because we earned it, but because of grace.
“But God proves His own love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”
— Romans 5:8
“...but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
— Romans 6:23
How to Respond
God invites you into a relationship with Him—not based on your performance, but on what Jesus has already done. If you're ready to turn from your sin and trust in Jesus, the Bible makes this promise:
“If you confess with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord,’ and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.”
— Romans 10:9
If that’s your desire, you don’t need perfect words—just a sincere heart. Here’s a simple prayer you can use to begin your journey with Jesus:
Jesus, I know that I’ve sinned and I need You. I believe You died for me and rose again. I ask for Your forgiveness and give You my life. I want to follow You from this day forward. Help me to walk in Your love and truth. Amen.
