JESUS DIED FOR YOU: BELIEVE IT AND LIVE FOR HIM!

ALL OF US HAVE SINNED
Romans 3:23 - "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God."
Romans 5:12 - "Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned."

JESUS CAME TO CALL SINNERS TO REPENTANCE
Matthew 9:13 - "But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance."
Mark 2:17 - "When Jesus heard it, He saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick:  I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance."
Luke 5:32 - "I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance."

BECAUSE WE BELIEVE JESUS DIED FOR US
Romans 5:6, 8 - "For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.... But God commendeth (demonstrated) His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us."
1 Corinthians 15:3 - "For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures."

THEREFORE, WE SHOULD
Romans 6:6 - "Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin."
2 Corinthians 5:15 - "And that He died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto Him Who died for them, and rose again."
Ephesians 1:12-13 - "That we should be to the praise of His glory, who first trusted in Christ.  In Whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the Word of Truth, the Gospel of your salvation:  in Whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that Holy Spirit of promise."
Ephesians 2:10 - "For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them."
1 Thessalonians 5:9-10 - "For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with Him.
Titus 2:11-12 - "For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world."
1 John 3:1, 11, 23 - "Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God:  therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew Him not....For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another....And this is His commandment, that we should believe on the name of His Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as He gave us commandment."
