What is Salvation?

Salvation is God’s free gift to people. It means a person is completely forgiven for the wrong things they have done and is made right with God. This gift comes only by trusting in Jesus Christ. Jesus lived a perfect life, died on the cross to take the punishment we deserved, and rose from the dead. No one earns this gift by being good enough or doing religious works. It is given freely because of what Jesus did.

Why Do We Need Salvation?

God created people so they could know Him and live in a good relationship with Him. But every person has turned away from God by thinking, saying, and doing things that are wrong. This has broken the relationship between people and God. Without being made right with God, people remain separated from Him in this life and will face His judgment after death. Only God can repair this broken relationship.

What is God’s Plan of Redemption?

God sent His Son, Jesus, into the world. Jesus lived a perfect life, died on the cross for our sins, and rose from the dead. Because of what Jesus did, God offers us forgiveness, freedom from the power of sin, and life with Him forever. We receive this gift simply by trusting in Jesus.

“But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” — Romans 5:8
