God
God
Creator
1 In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.
Holy
4 “The Rock, his work is perfect,
for all his ways are justice.
A God of faithfulness and without iniquity,
just and upright is he.
Loving
7 Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. 8 Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love.
Man
Man
Created
27 So God created man in his own image,
in the image of God he created him;
male and female he created them.
Sinful
1 The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.”
They are corrupt, doing abominable iniquity;
there is none who does good.
2 God looks down from heaven
on the children of man
to see if there are any who understand,
who seek after God.
3 They have all fallen away;
together they have become corrupt;
there is none who does good,
not even one.
19 And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil.
Fallen
23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
Separated
23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
2 but your iniquities have made a separation
between you and your God,
and your sins have hidden his face from you
so that he does not hear.
Jesus
Jesus
Life - God became flesh.
14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.
Death - God made him sin who knew no sin.
21 For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.
8 but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
Resurrection - Jesus conquered a grave we could not conquer. Sin and death.
3 For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, 4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures,
8 But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith that we proclaim); 9 because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved.
Provision - Jesus is the sufficient sacrifice for sins.
6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

9 because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved. 11 For the Scripture says, “Everyone who believes in him will not be put to shame.” 12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, bestowing his riches on all who call on him. 13 For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
Response described
11 He came to his own, and his own people did not receive him. 12 But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God, 13 who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God.
2 “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”
7 Jesus said to him, “Again it is written, ‘You shall not put the Lord your God to the test.’ ”
Repentance.
agree with God about my sin.
agree with God about the consequence of my sin.
agree with God about the provision for my sin.
Who you say Jesus is does not change who he is, but who you say Jesus is will greatly change who you are.
Who you say Jesus is does not change who he is, but who you say Jesus is will greatly change who you are.
Sinner’s Prayer. Is it biblical?
Sinner’s Prayer. Is it biblical?
9 He also told this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and treated others with contempt: 10 “Two men went up into the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. 11 The Pharisee, standing by himself, prayed thus: ‘God, I thank you that I am not like other men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even like this tax collector. 12 I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all that I get.’ 13 But the tax collector, standing far off, would not even lift up his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me, a sinner!’ 14 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified, rather than the other. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but the one who humbles himself will be exalted.”
God I confess that I am a sinner and I am fallen from a right relationship with you. God I thank you for Jesus Christ who became sin for me and died in my place. God I ask that you forgive me of my sins and I surrender my heart to Jesus as the Lord over my life and the Savior of my sin. Thank you for your mercy and grace and Jesus name Amen.
