A Costly, Free Gift

Let’s start by watching this video.

  • How would you sum up what Jesus has done for us? 
  • What might change in your life if you received what Jesus is offering us?

 

The Bible makes it crystal clear that none of us deserve to know God personally. None of us are “good enough” to earn a place in God’s family. Those gifts are only available to us through Jesus.

"God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you canʼt take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it."

"He saved us, not because of the righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He washed away our sins, giving us a new birth and new life."

  • What do these verses say about how someone is saved from sin?
  • How does it make you feel knowing you can’t do anything to earn God’s forgiveness?
