Key Text: 1 John 5:13
1. John 5:13. The

we have eternal life. If we
believe-and continue to believe
in Jesus name-He has promised
that we have eternal life.

us? No. We are saved by
God’s grace (unmerited,
undeserved favor) as a gift-not
by our works.
3. Romans
3:10,23. No one is righteous
in himself or herself. Everyone
has sinned and fallen short of

we understand what the Bible says
about our sinful human nature.

sinfulness, God loves us and
wants to give us eternal life. In
fact, Christ died for us while we
were still sinners.

God so loved us so much He gave
His only Son Jesus so that
everyone who believes on Him
should not die, but have
everlasting life.

5:21. Jesus became sin for us so
that we might become righteous in
Him.

the sins of all human beings.

His stripes. He bore our sins on
the cross.
