God made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God. (2 Corinthians 5:21)
The Bible says that the penalty for sin is eternal separation from God. God wants to have a relationship with you, so He sent His Son Jesus to pay the penalty for sin on the cross, so you could have a relationship with Him. Jesus never sinned. That means He is qualified to die in your place. He took your sin and paid the penalty for you. Believe this by faith and you will be forgiven of your sins. Let others know about this amazing truth. ~ Jeff M Newman

Present Your Requests To God
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:6-7)
