First of all I would like to greet you and say God Bless You. I would like to reply to your comment There is no god except ALLAH. Above all else, I would like to inform you that you are correct there is only one God. But, what God? You pray to ALLAH, but I pray to Jehovah (my GOD). Correct me if I am wrong, but you do not believe that Allah came down to earth as human form, am I correct. How could then the sin of the world be taken away? In Romans 3:23 the Bible states that, "for all have sinned, and fallen short of the glory of God." Jesus was a great prophet and man. Correct? But He was also the Messiah, Our Redeemer, and above all else Our Saviour.

Jesus being at the right of God and having all the angels of heaven worshipping Him decided instead to come down to earth as human form and take away our punishment. You must understand that Jesus loved you so much that He would have rathered died and suffered, knowing that we were going to be with Him in heaven, than Him living without us. The Bible says that God's mercies are new every morning. Mercy is forgiveness that we do not even deserve!

See...look here...just follow me through this, ok? The punishment of sin is death. Romans 6:23 states, "for the wages of sin is death" After Adam and Eve sinned God loved us still enough that He made us a promise that there would be a promise to would require innocent blood shed. (That's in Genesis 3:16)

But just to finish off...you are NOT saved by actions, but you are saved by GRACE. If you confess Jesus as your Lord and Saviour, He will forgive you of ALL your sins and He will NEVER EVER remember them again. John 3:16 says: For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son through Him we would not perish, but have everlasting life.

God is offering you a gift of repentance. Understand that Jesus is the way, the truth, and the light. And no one goes to the Father without through Him.

God Bless, brother in Jesus Christ.
