The Boys

One of the sweetest things about our Easter weekend was that our three boys each prayed and asked Jesus into their hearts.



Kevin read and talked through the following passages with them:

We Are All Sinners:

Romans 3:23 "for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God"

The Punishment for Our Sin is Death:

Romans 6:23 "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord."

God Loves Us Even Though We are Sinners:

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

Jesus Died For Us to Save Us from the Punishment We Deserve:

I Peter 3:18 "For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive by the Spirit."

If We Confess to Jesus and Believe in Him, We Will Be Saved :

Romans 10:9, 10 "That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. 11As the Scripture says, "Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame.""

Romans 10:13 "for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."

It Is Only Through God's Grace that We are Saved; Not By Good Acts That We Do:

Ephesians 2:8,9 "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God."

God's Mercy Prompts Us to Want to Live Holy and Pleasing Lives:

Romans 12:1,2 "Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual act of worship."

What a blessing to know that our boys understand God great love and mercy for them. We pray that each of you reading this understand that as well. There is no greater treasure in this life!
