Because We Are Saved
 

BECAUSE WE ARE SAVED

Those who choose to believe Jesus was born as a baby, lived on this earth as a man and died for our sins can be encouraged in so many ways. We can be encouraged by the prophets in God�s word who claimed the Savior was coming. We can be encouraged by the blessings God gives us because of Jesus� birth. We can be encouraged by eternal life and God�s forgiveness of our sins. We can be encouraged because He chose to save us with His only Son.

John 3:17 �God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him.� (NLT)

Dear Lord, thank You for Jesus. Thank You for Your plan to allow Your only Son to come to earth as a baby and live in this world. Thank You for allowing Your only Son to die on the cross to save us from our sin. Because You have saved us, we can live in joy knowing we will be with You forever. We are so grateful for Your love, Your promises and Your grace. Thank You, Lord, for encouraging us with Your perfect plan. In Jesus� name. Amen.

Matthew 1:21 �And she will have a son, and you are to name him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.� (NLT)

God sent Jesus into the world to save us from the depths of hell.

We are all sinners but we all have the opportunity to be saved by the grace of God.

Romans 3:23 �For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;� (KJV)

Everyone who chooses to believe in Jesus can be saved and encouraged by His saving grace.

Romans 10:9 �If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.� (NLT)

Focus: Because we are saved, we can be encouraged by God�s word and share it with others.
