CAN I BE FORGIVEN?

Romans 5:8; Ephesians 2:8-9

But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8

Luke 15 20 "But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him. 21 "The son said to him, 'Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.' 22 "But the father said to his servants, 'Quick! Bring the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet. 23 Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let's have a feast and celebrate. 24 For this son of mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.' So they began to celebrate.

Check Your Theology: For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith -- and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God--not by works, so that no one can boast. Ephesians 2:8-9

He was delivered over to death for our sins and was raised to life for our justification. Romans 4:25

Consequently, just as the result of one trespass was condemnation for all men, so also the result of one act of righteousness was justification that brings life for all men. Romans 5:18

You cannot do anything to make God love you more! You cannot do anything to make him save you more.

Warning: Saving faith is genuine faith, not "get me out of trouble," temporary faith. Matthew 21:28-32

Claim your identity in Christ! You are forgiven: past, present, and future!
