Page 2: Trusting Jesus

In the summer of 2006, I became a Christian. I gained a faith that changed my life forever…

Page 3: Trusting Jesus

I was blind, but then I saw. I trusted Jesus.

Page 4: Trusting Jesus

What does it mean to trust Jesus? Why should we trust Jesus?

Page 5: Trusting Jesus

“For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son. That whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.” (John 3:16)

Page 6: Trusting Jesus

Man has missed the mark of God’s standard of perfection.

Page 7: Trusting Jesus

Have you ever been hurt by someone? Have you ever even hurt someone yourself?

The Bible says, “None is righteous, no, not one.” (Romans 3:10)

Page 8: Trusting Jesus

Sometimes our sins are even unspeakably bad…

That’s just human.

Page 9: Trusting Jesus

“For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” (Romans 3:23)

Page 10: Trusting Jesus

Our sins rightfully deserve a consequence.

“For the wages of sin is death.” (Romans 6:23) – death means eternal separation from God

Page 11: Trusting Jesus

How do we make sense of the hurt from others? How do we make sense of our own failures? More so, how can these failures be reconciled?

Page 12: Trusting Jesus

“But God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” (Romans 5:8)

Page 13: Trusting Jesus

God’s love is infinite. No sin is beyond repair!

“For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners” – Jesus (Matthew 9:13)

Page 14: Trusting Jesus

Our sins were justified when Jesus died on the cross.

All we need to do is to trust Him to receive that gift of justification and freedom.

Page 15: Trusting Jesus

This trust is like standing on an unshakeable rock.

Page 16: Trusting Jesus

Do you trust that Jesus died for you and paid all your sins on the cross?

Page 17: Trusting Jesus

“For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9)

Who is Jesus?

Jesus is Lord and Savior. He is God’s only Son. He died on the cross for our sins, and on the third day He rose again.

To Him be all the glory!
