JESUS CHANGES EVERYTHING
THERE'S NO BETTER DECISION
At Cobourg Alliance Church we believe that the creator of the universe revealed himself to the world in Jesus.
If you want to know what God is like look at Jesus
Giving your life to Jesus changes everything.
Your past mistakes or your fears about the future, don’t have to define your story. Jesus can give you a new life. All you need to do is put your faith in Him.
The Bible says this in 2 Corinthians 5 , "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: the old has gone, the new is here! 18 All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ."
Romans 10:9, “If you declare with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.”
If you need God to change your life you can say a simple prayer like this, to ask Him to give you new life in Him.
Jesus, thank you for the sacrifice You made on the cross on my behalf. Your sacrifice which cleanses my sin and the regrets in my past, gives me a purpose for living, and the power to live in a way that honours you. Jesus you are the hope of my life, and I need you. Right now, I give you my life and I receive the love that you give so freely. Jesus, Forgive me and give me the courage and the grace to live for you and to share your love with those around me. Amen!
JOHN 3:16
"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."
WHO IS JESUS?
JESUS IS GOD AND HUMAN
If you want to know what God is like, look at Jesus. Jesus is God in human form. He walked on this earth just like we do (See John 1:1, 5:17-18, and Philippians 2:5-11). The eternal Son of God, Jesus, put on flesh and dwelt among us John 1:14.
JESUS CHRIST IS THE SAVIOUR OF THE WORLD.
The sad reality of life is that it’s a story of sin and sickness, and struggle (Romans 3:23), but this is why Jesus came. To pay the penalty for our sin, and conquer all that stood against us. Colossians 2:13-15. It was through His death and resurrection that Jesus paved the way for us to know God again.
JESUS CHANGES LIVES.
People who follow Jesus turn away from their old life of sin and turn to God. Jesus delivered people from demon oppression like Mary Magdalene (Luke 8:2). He called people like Matthew, who was a despised tax collector (Matthew 9:9). He called ordinary people like a fisherman named Peter (Matthew 4:18). For nearly 2,000 years, Jesus Christ has been changing the lives of people all over the world. He can do this for you too!
JESUS CHRIST WILL RECEIVE YOU IF YOU COME TO HIM.
Jesus said, He would not turn anyone away who wants to come to Him (John 6:37). He’s ready to start a personal relationship with you. Your past is never too broken for Jesus to come and help you. It’s time to come to Him and receive His free gift of salvation.
ROMANS 5:8
But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
