Why do I need a Savior?

You Were Born with a Sinful Nature – Deserving Eternal Death

Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all men, because all sinned– Romans 5:12


Those controlled by the sinful nature cannot please God.  Romans 8:8


There is not a righteous man on earth who does what is right and never sins.  Ecclesiastes 7:20


Therefore no one will be declared righteous in his sight… Romans 3:20


…for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God  Romans 3:23


If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. 1 John 1:8

You Are Unable to “Fix it” on Your Own

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.  Romans 6:23


What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death? Thanks be to God–through Jesus Christ our Lord!  Romans 7:24,25


For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. 1 Peter 3:18

Through Jesus Christ, You are Made Right with God.

You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be saved from God’s wrath through him! For if, when we were God’s enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life! Not only is this so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation. Romans 5:6-11


We implore you on Christ’s behalf: Be reconciled to God. God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.  2 Corinthians 5:20-21
