STEP 1. In all of life there is nothing more wonderful than discovering peace with God.
God has a plan for your life and wants you to experience peace and life right now. God loves you and wants you to experience peace and life - Abundant and Eternal Life Right Now."We have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ" Romans 5:1(NIV)
"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" John 3:16 (NIV)
"I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full" John 10:10 (NIV)
Since God planned for us to have peace, and the abundant life right now, why are most people having this experience?
STEP 2 IS ACKNOWLEDGING MAN'S PROBLEM - MAN'S PROBLEM IS SEPARATION FROM GOD.
God created man in HIS own image and gave him an abundant life. He did not make him as a robot to automatically love and obey Him, but gave him a will and freedom of choice MAN chose to disobey God and go his own wilful way. And still to this day man still makes this choice and this results in seperation from God.
God's Word says:
"Since all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" Romans 3:23 (NIV)
"For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus" Romans 6:23 (NIV)
Man through the ages has tried to bridge this gap in many ways... without success.
