Why did Jesus Die? 1. Because we are all sinners! It is not hard to admit that we all have done things that we know is wrong, but yet we do them anyway. That is called sin! We all are guilty of it we have been doing it since we were born. Markus 2:17 Takale e' si Isa patilaw saga guru inān ati yukna ma sigām, "Bang a'a abasag mbal magpadoktol. Ya magpadoktol bang a'a taga-saki. Ngga'i ka a'a ahāp ya bay mohotku pi'itu ni dunya, sagō' a'a taga-dusa, bo' supaya sigām ameya' ma aku." RŌM 3:10 buwat bay tasulat ma deyom Kitab, ya yuk-i, "Halam aniya' manusiya' abontol ma pang'nda' Tuhan. Matiyu 18:11 (In aku, Anak Manusiya', bay pi'itu ni dunya angalappas saga a'a ya alawak min Tuhan.) 2. Because there is a cost for that sin! Matiyu 15:18-20 Sagō' ya bissala ala'at paluwas min bowa' a'a, bay pino'onan asal min deyom atayna. Ya he' makalumu' iya. Sabab deyom atay manusiya' ya paluwasan hona'-hona'na ala'at, ya angkan iya maghinang kala'atan kaginisan, buwat saga amapatay, angaliyu-lakad, angahinang kahina'an d'nda-l'lla, anangkaw, magputing, maka angalimut. Kamemon itu makalumu' a'a. Sagō' bang kita amangan ma halam bay angose'an tanganta buwat pamandu' saga Parisi, ngga'i ka he'-i makabuwan kalumu'an." RŌM 6:23 Tagna', bay kitam tabanyaga' e' dusa ati kamatay ya tungbasna, saguwā' kallum kakkal ya pangahilas Tuhan ma kitam bang si Isa Al-Masi Panghū'tam ya pameya'antam. Markus 16:16 Sai-sai am'nnal sampay pinandi tanda' in sigām angandol ma aku," yuk si Isa, "lappasan du saumul-umul. Saguwā' sai-sai mbal am'nnal, pinat'nna'an du iya hukuman.
There is a cost for that sin! 3. Because Jesus died and paid for our sins on the cross! Matiyu 1:21 Anganak du iya l'lla, ati Isa ya pangōnnu ma iya sabab iya ya angalappas bangsana Isra'il min paldusahan sigām." RŌM 5:8 Saguwā' pina'nda'an kitam e' Tuhan bang buwattingga heya lasana ma kitam, sabab amatay Al-Masi ganti'tam, ma waktu lagi' kitam masi ma deyom karusahan. Yahiya 3:16 "Aheya to'ongan lasa Tuhan ma manusiya', ya po'on paglilla'na Anakna tunggal pinapatay bo' supaya sasuku angandol ma Anakna itu mbal binutawanan min Tuhan, sagō' kakkal kallumna sampay ni kasaumulan. Matiyu 18:11 (In aku, Anak Manusiya', bay pi'itu ni dunya angalappas saga a'a ya alawak min Tuhan.) 4. Salvation is a free gift, not by good works. You must take God s word for it, and trust Jesus alone! Salvation is trusting and receiving Jesus Christ as your Savior. It's trusting in the fact that Jesus Christ died on the cross of Calvary to pay for your sins! It's realizing there is absolutely nothing whatsoever you can do to save yourself and completely trusting in Jesus Christ to save you! It's not any church that saves. It's not any baptism, not good works, not sacraments, not repenting, not praying through, not living a good life IT'S NOT ANYTHING YOU CAN DO! Kahinangan 4:12 Halam to'ongan aniya' saddī min si Isa ma kaluha'an dunya itu makalappas kitam min mulka'. Luwal ōn si Isa bay pamuwan e' Tuhan panabbutan manusiya', bo' supaya kitam lappasan." Epesos 2:8-9 Sabab min ase' maka lasa Tuhan ya angkan kam lappasan, ma sabab pangandolbi ma Al-Masi. Ngga'i ka min kahinanganbi, tu'ud pamuwan Tuhan ma ka'am. Mbal kam makapagmalangkahi ma baranbi, sabab ngga'i ka min hulas-sangsā'bi ya angkan kam lappasan.. Titus 3:5 ati puwasanna kitam min hukuman dusa. Ngga'i ka ma sabab aniya' kahāpan bay hinangtam, sagō' ma sabab ase'na ma kitam. Nianakan kitam pabīng e' Rū Sussi maka kabuwanan kallum baha'u pagka sussina ataytam.
5. We must put our faith and trust in Christ alone! Markus 9:23 Yuk si Isa ma iya, "Angay tilawnu bang takole'ku? Bang a'a taga-iman," yukna, "takole'na kamemon." Markus 1:15 "Ta'abut na waktu bay pinagkallam," yukna. "Asekot na waktu pagparinta Tuhan maitu ma manusiya'. Taikutinbi na dusabi maka kahagarunbi na lapal ahāp itu." Markus 10:15 B'nnal ya pangahakaku ma ka'am, bang a'a mbal pasulut ma pagparinta Tuhan buwat kapasulut onde'-onde', a'a inān mbal pasōd ni pagparintahan Tuhan." RŌM 10:9-10,13 Bang kam magpasab'nnal in si Isa Panghū'bi maka magkahagad to'ongan min deyom ataybi in iya bay pinakallum min kamatay e' Tuhan, tantu kam lappasan bo' pasōd ni deyom sulga'. 10Sabab min pagkahagadtam ma si Isa ya angkan kitam binista abontol e' Tuhan, ati bang kitam angahaka sab'nnal ni a'a kasehe'an pasal pagkahagadtam, minnē' kitam lappasan. Buwat tasulat ma deyom Kitab, ya yuk-i, "Sai-sai parahing ni Panghū', tantu lappasan." Put your faith in Christ alone! If you want to accept Jesus Christ as your Savior and receive forgiveness from God, here is prayer you can pray. Saying this prayer or any other prayer will not save you. It is only trusting in Jesus Christ that can provide forgiveness of sins. This prayer is simply a way to express to God your faith in Him and thank Him for providing for your forgiveness.
"Lord, I know that I am a sinner. I know that I deserve the consequences of my sin which is death and hell. However, I am trusting in Jesus Christ as my Savior. I believe that His death and resurrection provided for my forgiveness. I trust in Jesus and Jesus alone as my personal Lord and Savior. Thank you Lord, for saving me and forgiving me! Amen!" If you just prayed that prayer according to the Word of God YOU ARE SAVED! HALLELUJAH! You say, but I don't feel any different. Guess what? Your salvation does not depend on your feeling. It ALL depends on doing what God SAID! God said if you receive and trust in Jesus Christ you are saved. Notice it does NOT say you "might" or "could" be saved but "shall be saved". YOU ARE SAVED! Buwat tasulat ma deyom Kitab, ya yuk-i, "Sai-sai parahing ni Panghū', tantu lappasan." RŌM 10:13 Didn't you just believe on the Lord Jesus Christ? Look at what John 3:36 says! It says you HATH EVERLASTING LIFE! Not "maybe" or "hope so" BUT HATH YOU ARE SAVED! Taga-kallum kakkal ni kasaumulan sasuku angandol ma Anak Tuhan. Sasuku mbal angandol maka mbal ameya' ma Anak Tuhan, halam aniya' kallum sigām kakkal sagō' pat'ddas du sigām ma mulka' Tuhan. Yahiya 3:36 Friend, if you prayed the prayer and received Jesus Christ YOU ARE SAVED! You did what God said AND GOD CANNOT LIE!
