       In fact, God sent his Son Jesus into the world, some 2,000 years ago, and he died on a cross to provide a payment for God for all the wrongs humans have done in their lives. You see, in order for us as humans to be in right relationship with God, he requires that we have a payment for all the wrongs we’ve done in our lives, all of our offenses against him. God is a holy, righteous, and just God, and in his holiness he demands payment for people’s sins, the wrong things they’ve done against him. Thankfully, though, Jesus came to the earth, died on the cross for our sins, and anyone who accepts his death as a substitute payment for their sins can be made right with God today. He or she can come into total peace with God, and never be in danger of the judgment that God is going to bring against individuals in the near future. Jesus conquered the grave, rising from the dead, and is with God today in Heaven. Just as Jesus has new life today, anyone who believes in Jesus also gets a new life. All of their sins are blotted out, and they are made clean both now and forever.
