Publisher's summary

The purpose of this short Bible study is to examine the Christian message of the great salvation that is found in Jesus Christ alone. Please take a moment from the hectic pace of life to read these pages. From them you will gain a deeper knowledge of the holy God of the Bible and a deeper understanding of the truly heinous nature of your own sin. You see, your greatest need is to be delivered from the terrible calamity of your sin, and that calamity is death. The Bible says that, “the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Death is the terrible consequence for all who sin. But there is a priceless gift to be had from God, and that gift is eternal life! Through your sin you have earned death, but through God's grace comes the gift of eternal life. And this gift is offered to you only through Jesus Christ – you can only be reconciled to God through Jesus Christ.

It is the great design of the gospel that you become reconciled to God. There is nothing more important in this life for you to come to understand than this – to know your great need for the mercy of God, and most importantly, the great sufficiency of the only Savior of sinners – the Lord Jesus Christ!

To any reading this who are already Christians, remember, you are ambassadors for Christ – God is making His appeal through you to this dying world. (2 Corinthians 5:11-21) So reach out to your family members, to your friends, to your neighbors and co-workers on behalf of Christ. Use this resource to begin a Bible study with them and proclaim Christ's gospel – the eternal destiny of each and every one of them is at stake.

And to the one reading this who has not yet turned from sin and from self-righteousness, who has not yet flown empty-handed to the Savior for the forgiveness of sins and for eternal life, please read this Bible study and consider this gospel very carefully. Please read it and take it to heart. Please be reconciled to God!
