Christianity is the answer for our world. The Gospel which is, Jesus Christ, and his death burial
and resurrection are of primary or first importance. (1 Corinthians 15:3,4)
Author Lee Strobel reminds all of us of how critical a decision about Jesus is: “I urge you to keep
an open mind, (and) make this the front burner issue of your life!”
Why is the Gospel of Jesus so important? The Bible tells us that we are born with a fallen,
broken nature and that we have failed to keep the commandments of God. We are accountable
for our sins and Jesus died on the cross to pay the penalty for us if we only trust in him and the
sacrifice, he has made for us. (Romans 3:23, 6:23)
When a crowd asked the Apostle Peter what they should do when they recognized their guilt
before God, Peter replied, “repent and be baptized.” (Acts 2:37,38)
Have you trusted Jesus Christ? Have you asked him to forgive you for your sins? Jesus died on
the cross for your sins so you could be forgiven and live with him one day. Why not trust him
today?
