Learn More About Christ

Jesus Christ is a special gift from God, and let me explain why this is significant. You may or may not be familiar with the Bible verse John 3:16 (KJV), which states, "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." God sent Jesus for you because He loves you and desires for you to have everlasting life with Him!

Jesus came to save us because He understood that we are not perfect. Romans 5:8 (ERV) tells us, "But Christ died for us while we were still sinners, and by this, God showed how much He loves us."

Additionally, Jesus came to protect us from the devil's plans for our lives. 1 John 3:8 reminds us that "...for this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He may destroy the works of the devil."

The devil is a thief, as we learn in John 10:10: "The thief cometh not, but for to steal, kill, and destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly."

With Jesus Christ as our savior, we can experience an abundant life and find the strength to face anything that life may bring us! Once again, we see God's immense love for us—no one else loves us this much!

How do I receive Him? Simply pray this prayer of salvation and mean it from your heart; it's as simple as that!

**Prayer of Salvation:**

Dear God, I believe that you sent your son Jesus Christ to die for me and that He rose on the third day so that I may be forgiven. I ask Him now to come into my heart and be the Lord of my life. I receive Jesus now as my savior and I declare that I am free from sin. Thank you, Lord, for saving me in Jesus' name. Amen.
