The Good News From God

Looking at Bible verses from the Book of Romans helps us understand God’s Good News of salvation.

What Does GOD Want You to Know?

Admit that everybody has sinned. “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” – (Romans 3:23) No one can be good enough to reach Heaven on his own. All of us have sinned.

Realize that sin has a penalty. “For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” – (Romans 6:23). The penalty for sin is death and eternal separation from God. But, He has provided a solution for us.

Believe that Jesus paid the penalty. “But God shows His love for us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” – (Romans 5:8). Jesus died in your place for you, even before you knew about Him.

Invite Jesus Christ to be your Savior and Lord. “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. For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved.” – (Romans 10:9-10). Thank Jesus for taking away the penalty of your sin.

Talk to God, telling Him something like this, “Dear Jesus, I’m sorry for my sins. Thank you for dying for me. Please come into my heart and be my Savior. I surrender all of my life to you; please be the Lord of my life.”
