The Good News of Jesus.

What I privilege to help lead and be part of a brilliant team at Crown Jesus Ministries.
What a great privilege that I get to tell people about Jesus as my job.

It's all about Jesus: Take a moment to read the following and share it with others:

Little over 2,000 years ago Jesus was born to an unwed teenager in a dusty rural town. By age thirty he was feeding the hungry, healing the sick, making friends with misfits and sharing a radical message of love and hope. Three years later he died after being showered with spit, whipped and nailed to a cross for claiming to be God. 

That Sunday Jesus rose from the dead, was seen by over five hundred people and within weeks this new faith was spreading like wildfire. He is the most famous person in human history. No politician, army, nation, or religious leader has affected the world like Jesus.

His death was unlike any other because he died for each of us. One thing we all have in common is sin, (our own selfish words, thoughts and deeds) no matter how big or small the verdict is the same. We are guilty of sin before a loving, holy God and justice must be done. Either we pay for our sin or someone else pays it  for us.

The Good News is that Jesus came to take our place and the punishment we deserved so that we might be forgiven and reconciled to God. When we admit we are sinners and invite Jesus to be our personal rescuer, friend and Lord we are given a new life.

These four points can help us understand


1 God loves us 2 We’ve really messed up  3 Jesus died for us 4 We need to choose

PRAY: Dear Jesus, I am truly sorry for the wrong things I have done. Forgive me. Thank you for dying on the cross for my sin. Today I ask you to be my rescuer, Lord and friend. Amen.

Tell someone, visit a local bible believing church and tell the Pastor/Minister/youth leader.
If they don't great you with enthusiasm then shake the dust of your feat and go find another church.
