Scripture Memory - 2

Gospel

Creation
Genesis 1:26, Genesis 1:31

Man was created in the image of God. He was created to be in charge. In the world that was originally created, everything was good. There was no death. There was no evil. It was perfect. (You cannot believe in evolution and believe in God.)

Fallen World
Romans 3:10-12, Romans 3:23

We live in a world were no one is perfect. We have all fallen short of God's standards.

Consequences
Romans 6:23, Hebrews 9:27

God is holy and He cannot allow unholy people into His presence.

God's Solution
Romans 5:8, 1 Peter 3:18

God is a loving God. He made us to have fellowship with Him. So God sent His only begotten Son to die in our place so that we can come into His presence.

Our response
Romans 10:9-10, Acts 2:38, Revelation 3:20

To come into God's presence we must accept Jesus. No one is perfect and no one will be perfect this side of heaven but we must commit to doing what He requires and turn away from a self indulgent life.

Christ alone, Faith alone
Ephesians 2:8-9, Acts 4:12

It is only through Jesus that we can be saved. We are saved by faith. There is nothing we can do to earn salvation.

Know that you are saved
John 1:12, John 5:24, 1 John 5:11-13

Once we accept Jesus into our lives, it is important to believe that He has come in and that we are now saved.
