Humanity Cannot Save Itself
“For without shedding of blood is no remission.”
— Hebrews 9:22
Before God allowed sin into the world, He had already prepared the remedy.
That remedy was the sacrificial death of His Son, Jesus Christ.
Jesus became the sin offering for humanity.
God accepted His sacrifice.
And through Him, the sin of the world is taken away.
“Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.”
— John 1:29
“He Himself is the atoning sacrifice for our sins,
and not for ours only,
but also for the sins of the whole world.”
— 1 John 2:2
The Plan Was Simple. The Price Was Great.
The plan of salvation is simple.
The execution of that plan was harsh.
Jesus died.
But God raised Him from the dead.
And in the same way, God will raise all humanity.
“This is the will of Him who sent Me,
that of all He has given Me
I should lose nothing,
but raise it up at the last day.”
— John 6:39
“It is finished.”
— John 19:30
“He made Him who knew no sin
to be sin for us,
so that in Him
we might become the righteousness of God.”
— 2 Corinthians 5:21
Peace Through Christ
Those who hear and believe this truth can experience peace now.
Those who do not often spend their lives searching for peace through their own efforts.
But peace is not achieved.
Peace is received.
“Peace I leave with you;
My peace I give to you.
Not as the world gives do I give to you.”
— John 14:27
“God was reconciling the world to Himself in Christ,
not counting men’s trespasses against them.”
— 2 Corinthians 5:19
Every Knee Will Bow
Following the resurrection, all humanity will come to know the truth.
Every knee will bow.
Every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.
“Every knee will bow before Me;
every tongue will swear allegiance.”
— Isaiah 45:23
“At the name of Jesus every knee will bow...
and every tongue will confess
that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.”
— Philippians 2:10–11
God Will Raise the Dead
Human beings cannot save themselves from death.
But God can.
And God will.
“There shall be a resurrection
of both the just and the unjust.”
— Acts 24:15
“The wages of sin is death,
but the free gift of God
is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
— Romans 6:23
“As in Adam all die,
so also in Christ
all will be made alive.”
— 1 Corinthians 15:22
One Mediator for All
There is one God.
And one Mediator between God and humanity.
The man Christ Jesus.
He gave Himself as a ransom for all.
“For there is one God,
and one mediator between God and men,
the man Christ Jesus,
who gave Himself as a ransom for all.”
— 1 Timothy 2:5–6
The Savior of All Humanity
This message is worthy of acceptance.
We trust in the living God.
Who is the Savior of all humanity.
Especially of those who believe.
“We trust in the living God,
who is the Savior of all humanity,
especially of those who believe.”
— 1 Timothy 4:10
God’s Plan Is Greater Than We Imagined.
Jesus Christ died for the sins of the world.
All who die in Adam will be made alive in Christ.
The truth will set you free.
