The Truth
Adam was trapped, alone, afraid, in a world he never made.
He brought corruption, disease and poverty into that world. That bondage of sin
and its consequences creates an alienation from one’s fellow man and God.

Jesus pleads invitingly, “I am the way, the truth, and the
life; no man cometh to the Father, but by me,” (Jn. 14:6). “Verily, Verily . .
. I am the door of the sheep,” (Jn. 10:7).
“Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under
heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved,” (Acts 4:12).

Every soul born on this earth is lost at birth because they
come into this world under the sin of Adam and Eve, our first parents. Adam
submitted his will to the devil, sinned and therefore, lost eternal life for
all mankind. His lost condition may be described as falling short of the glory
of God.

Man’s own unaided efforts to solve his problems through
intellectual, economic, political, social or psychological skills are soon to
fail. Salvation is a free gift from God. It is a work of God in which He
rescues man from eternal ruin.

The doom of sin bestows on him the riches of His grace, even
eternal life beginning now and eternal glories in heaven forevermore. From the
moment you are saved, if you will let God do it in your spirit, you will begin
to enjoy the fruits of salvation. The salvation of God is for those who do not
deserve it and have no preparation for it.
