Jesus died in your place
Even though we've all sinned against the God who created us, he sent his son Jesus to pay the penalty that we deserve. Jesus paid the price for our sins as he was executed on a Roman cross almost two millennia ago.

Jesus came as God in human flesh, and he lived with perfect compassion and holiness. He didn't deserve to die, but we do.  We've rebelled against God, ignored him, and followed our own ways (Isaiah 53:6). Instead of leaving us to our own destructive ways, though, God sent his son to die in our place, so that we might be reconciled to him (1 Peter 3:18).

But that's not it...

JESUS LIVES

Jesus rose so you can too
He was crucified and buried on your behalf, but he didn't stay dead! The grave couldn't keep him down. Instead, Jesus conquered death and rose again, and now he offers us that same new life - life that isn't defeated by death, but is eternal (John 3:16-17). He offers to take our sin upon himself, and give us unending life, reconciled to God, in return.

Have you turned from your own sinful ways and trusted Jesus as king and savior instead (Luke 13:3)? Jesus rose so that you can live with him forever!
