But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
Romans 5:8
- Did Jesus die for us because we were good or bad?
- We earned death (remember Romans 6:23?) but Jesus died for us.
- So then, Jesus took our punishment, right?
- After Jesus died, what happened to Him?
...Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, and that he appeared to Peter, and then to the twelve. After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers at the same time, most of whom are still living...
1 Corinthians 15:3-6
- Jesus rose from the dead. Death did not stop Him!
- So, if Jesus died for our sin and our sin is what separated us from God, we don't need to be separated from God anymore!
- Is Jesus the only one who can get us to God?
Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."
John 14:6
- So Jesus is the only way to God. Is that all we need to know?
