Jesus Paid the Price

God didn't leave us separated. He sent Jesus.

"

…but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

— Romans 6:23b
"

But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

— Romans 5:8

This is the heart of the gospel. While we were still far from God — while we were still sinning — Jesus came for us anyway.

He lived a perfect, sinless life. He willingly went to the cross and took the punishment that we deserved. And three days later, He rose from the dead — defeating sin and death once and for all.

Jesus paid the debt
we could never pay.
