Jesus saves from sins.

Jesus saves from sins

Matthew  1:21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.

Why must you be saved from sin?

Because sin has consequences and wages.

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

What are these consequences and wages?

Sicknesses, affliction and death

Psalms  107:17 Fools because of their transgression, and because of their iniquities, are afflicted.  107:18 Their soul abhorreth all manner of meat; and they draw near unto the gates of death.

Psalms  119:67 Before I was afflicted I went astray: but now have I kept thy word.

Unanswered prayers

Isaiah  59:1 Behold, the LORD’s hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear:  59:2 But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.

Eternity in lake of fire 

Revelation  21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

So what is sin that Jesus came to save us from?

Matthew  1:21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.

Revelation  21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

If the Son shall make your free.

John  8:36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.

How are you going to be free from sin?

Proverbs  28:13 He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy.

When are you to do it?

Isaiah  55:6 Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:  55:7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.

2 Corinthians  6:2 (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)

If you will do it, Jesus will make your free.

Matthew  1:21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.
