WE WANT TO SHARE THE CHRISTIAN FAITH WITH YOU:

1. GOD LOVES YOU! For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but shall have eternal life. John 3:16

2. YOU ARE A SINNER. “For all [people] have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.”  Romans 3:23

3. GOD PUNISHES SIN. “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Romans 6:23

4. JESUS TOOK OUR PUNISHMENT. “But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:8

5. JESUS ROSE FROM THE DEAD. “For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that He was buried, that He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures. 1 Corinthians 15:3-4

6. JESUS OFFERS FORGIVENESS OF SINS AND ETERNAL LIFE TO THOSE WHO BELIEVE IN HIM. “The jailer brought Paul and Silas out and asked, ‘Sirs, what must I do to be saved?’ They replied, “Believe in the Lord, Jesus, and you will be saved-you and your household.” Acts 16:30-31

7. SALVATION IS FREE-A GIFT FROM GOD! “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God-not by works, so
that no one can boast.” Ephesians 2:8-9

8. JESUS WANTS YOU TO ENJOY PEACE. “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Jesus, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” Romans 15:13

Please contact me, Pastor Jon Bendewald, if you wish to talk about your faith in Jesus.  I have discovered for myself, by God’s Word and Spirit, that the Grace of God is a free and complete gift of God to any struggling, confused, addicted, hurting soul. Please call me 269-757-3398 to be reminded of God’s unwavering love for you.
