As you get older, you might wonder, "Have my past sins been forgiven?

As we grow older…😓
… "Have my past sins been forgiven?"
"What should I do to avoid judgment after death? 🤔"
Many people probably think these things.
…Or,
Many people think that perhaps their sins will be overlooked if they perform some good deeds…
So, what is the way to be saved?

The church is not a place to gather solely for the purpose of performing good deeds.

It is a place where people troubled by sin gather…😨
And where they hear, believe, and receive God's message: "God made Jesus Christ sin, and in his place we are God's righteousness."

Sin cannot be wiped away by our own efforts.

We place our sins upon Christ, receive the life of Jesus, and live as righteous people.
However, this is what God desired.
We must not let the sacrifice made by Jesus be in vain.

Whether we're wasting things or not
…😓
is reflected in our way of life❗️.
Have a great weekend.
Shalom 😃
