God rules. We sinned. God provided. Jesus gives. We respond. Because God created everything, He is in charge of everything. (Revelation 4:11) Everyone sins, or disobeys God. Our sin separates us from God. (Romans 3:23) God is holy and must punish sin. God sent His Son, Jesus, to take the punishment we deserve. (John 3:16) Jesus took our punishment for sin by giving His life, and He gives us His righteousness. God sees us as if we lived the perfect life Jesus lived. (2 Corinthians 5:21) Everyone has a choice to make. Will you trust Jesus as your Savior and Lord? You can turn from self and sin and turn to Jesus.
