The Gospel in a nutshell

God created us with a purpose. We are to glorify Him by sharing his love with others

Jesus loved us so much that He died on the cross to take away the punishment for our sins so that we might be able to spend eternity with God in heaven. In order to have eternal life in heaven, we must accept God's free gift of salvation by praying to God and asking Him to be our Savior (to take away the punishment for our sins) and asking Him to be the Lord or boss of our lives.
