![Page 8: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
What is Sin?
![Page 9: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Sin is doing anything that breaks God’s laws.
Everyone who sins breaks the law; in fact, sin is lawlessness.
1 John 3:4 (NIV)
![Page 10: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Sin is anything we say that is
displeasing to God.
But I say to you that for every idle word men may speak, they will give account of it in the day of
judgment. For by your words you will be jus5fied, and by your words you will be condemned.”
MaY 12:36-‐37 NKJV
![Page 11: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Sin is anything we think that is displeasing to our Loving God.
The thought of foolishness is sin:. . . Prov 24:9 KJV
![Page 12: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Sin is not doing some things we should do.
Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin.
James 4:17 NKJV
![Page 13: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Sin is Universal
• Rom 3:23 says, “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
• According to this verse who sins?
EVERYONE!!!
![Page 14: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
If Sin is:
• Breaking God’s laws
• Thinking that does not please God
• Words that are not pleasing to God
• Not doing the good we know to do. . .
It is preYy EASY to SIN!
![Page 15: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
What are the Consequences of our sin?
• Sin MUST be punished by a perfect and good GOD
For the wages of sin is death, but the gid of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. Rom 6:23 NKJV
![Page 16: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Do you know what the word WAGES means?
• Wages are what we get for what we do
![Page 17: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Rom 6:23 For the wages of sin is death. . .
So our wages (what we get for what we do) for our sin is
death.
![Page 18: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
The only punishment God has for
SIN is the death penalty.
• Death for sin is not about dying physically
• It refers to a placed we call Hell
14 Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. 15 And anyone not found wriYen in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire.
Rev 20:14-‐15 NKJV
![Page 19: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
The good news is. . .
GOD LOVES YOU!
• God does not want you to die for your sin
• God does not want you to go to Hell
![Page 20: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
So What Has God Done in His Love for US
To HELP US?
![Page 21: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

GOD LOVES YOU!
• God provided for our salva5on by sending His son into this world.
• He sent His son to be our Savior.

![Page 23: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Who is God’s Son?
JESUS

![Page 24: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
One Solitary LIFE…..
![Page 25: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Jesus lived the perfect life
• Because Jesus is God He is the only person who never sinned.
• Heb 4:15 For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points
tempted as we are, yet without sin. NKJV
• Because He had no sin of His own He did not have to be punished for sin.
• Because He had no sin, He could take the punishment I deserved for My Sin upon himself.
![Page 26: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Jesus Died for our sins
• Jesus died on the cross
• For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 1 Cor
15:3 NKJV
• He died for our sins!
![Page 27: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Jesus arose from the dead!
• Jesus defeated death and hell
• His resurrec5on promises us everlas5ng life!
![Page 28: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Jesus Ascended to Heaven and is there preparing a place for us!
• "Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me.2 In My Father's house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you
may be also. John 14:1-‐3 NKJV
![Page 29: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Jesus is coming again soon!
• . . . if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that
where I am, there you may be also. John 14:3
![Page 30: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Jesus is present now in His Holy Spirit and wants to
Come into your Heart!
For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them.” MaY 18:20 NKJV
![Page 31: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Review
• Why do we need to be saved?
• Because of Sin!
• How did God provide for our Salva5on? •
• He sent Jesus Christ to be our Savior.
![Page 32: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
The Whole Gospel in 4 Minutes…
![Page 33: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Step 3 Salva5on Offered
• How does God offer His salva5on to Us?
![Page 34: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Salva5on is a free gid!
• Do you like gids for birthdays or Christmas?
![Page 35: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
God has a gid He wants us to have!
For the wages of sin is death, but the gid of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Rom 6:23 NKJV
![Page 36: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
God’s GIFT is Eternal Life!
• That means we life for ever and ever.
• That is a long long 5me.
![Page 37: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
I have a gid I want someone to Have!
![Page 38: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
So what do you do if someone wants to give
you a gid?
You TAKE it!
![Page 39: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
God has a gid for you that He wants you to take!
• His gid is everlas5ng life.
• He wants us to receive it.
• The problem is that this gid is invisible, but is very real.
![Page 40: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
How do we receive this invisible gid from God?
• Repentance Toward God!
• FAITH in Jesus Christ!
![Page 41: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Repentance means to CHANGE!
It may be a change in direc5on or in mind or
both.
![Page 42: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
So Repentance Means:
• To be sorry for our sin, but it is more...
• It means to be sorry and to tell God you are sorry for your sins, but it s5ll means more…
• It means to say we are sorry and to turn toward God and start living to please Him!
![Page 43: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
SO . . .WHAT IS FAITH?
• Faith is res5ng on God’s promise. • (Like simng on a chair)
• Faith is taking God at His Word. • (Like jumping into a Fireman’s net)
• Faith is trus5ng God to do what He said.
![Page 44: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
The Bible Says:
• 8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gid
of God,
• 9 not of works, lest anyone should boast. Eph 2:8-‐10 NKJV
![Page 45: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
God offers us salva5on As a free Gid!
• We receive this gid by repentance toward God for our sins . . .
• . . .and faith in Jesus Christ as our Savior.
![Page 46: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)

Salva5on Accepted
![Page 47: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
The Ques5on of the Day
Do you want God’s gid of salva5on?
![Page 48: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Naan Naanahave…….
![Page 49: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
How do we accept God’s gid through repentance and
faith?
We do it through prayer.
![Page 50: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
What is prayer?
• Prayer is talking to God. • Prayer is telling God
• how we feel… • what we believe… • what we need… • what we want.
![Page 51: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Through Prayer we express our faith to God and call on Him.
For "whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved.” Rom 10:13 NKJV
![Page 52: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
The Bible Says:
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begoYen Son, that
whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlas5ng life.
John 3:16
![Page 53: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
• For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the
world through Him might be saved. John 3:17
![Page 54: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
"He who believes in Him is not
condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begoYen
Son of God. John 3:19
![Page 55: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Does this make sense to You? • Have you sinned?
• Do you believe Jesus Died for your sin?
• Do you believe you need to be saved. • • Do you want to receive His gid of salva5on?
![Page 56: God's Greatest Gift](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/55cb0055bb61ebac5b8b4606/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
