JESUS DIED TO REMOVE THE "UN"

God is righteous!  God is always correct in all of His judgments.

*     Psalms 7:9 - "Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but establish the just:  for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reins."
*     Psalm 116:5 - "Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; yea, our God is merciful."
*     Ezra 9:15 - "O LORD God of Israel, Thou art righteous: for we remain yet escaped, as it is this day: behold, we are before Thee in our trespasses: for we cannot stand before Thee because of this."
*     Daniel 9:14 - "Therefore hath the LORD watched upon the evil, and brought it upon us: for the LORD our God is righteous in all His works which He doeth: for we obeyed not His voice."

 

God is holy!  God is set apart from all those who are unrighteous.

*     Leviticus 11:45 - "For I am the LORD that bringeth you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I am holy."
*     Joshua 24:19 - "And Joshua said unto the people, Ye cannot serve the LORD: for He is an holy God; He is a jealous God; He will not forgive your transgressions nor your sins."
*     Psalm 71:22 - "I will also praise Thee with the psaltery, even Thy truth, O my God: unto Thee will I sing with the harp, O Thou Holy One of Israel."
*     Isaiah 48:17 - "Thus saith the LORD, Thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the LORD Thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go."

Man is unrighteous!  Man is unholy!  Man is separated from God by sin!

 

*     Romans 3:10 - "As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one."

*     Romans 3:23 - "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God."

*     Ephesians 4:18 - "Having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart."

 

God's solution is offered to all who will accept the gift of salvation!

 

*     1 Corinthians 15:3-4 - "...Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures...He was buried, and...He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures."

*     Romans 10:13 - "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."

*     Ephesians 2:8 - "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God."

*     2 Corinthians 5:20-21 - "...be ye reconciled to God.  For He hath made Him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him."
