Why did Jesus Die?
Because we are all sinners!

Because there is a cost for that sin!

Because Jesus died and paid for our sins on the cross!

Salvation is a free gift, not by good works. You must take God’s word for it, and trust Jesus alone!

We must put our faith and trust in Christ alone!

Bɛŋwaanɩ, "wʋlʋ maama na loori zənə d'ɩ Yuutu wʋm yɩrɩ ŋwaanɩ tɩn w'ʋ na vrɩm."
Put your faith in Christ alone!
If you want to accept Jesus Christ as your Savior and receive forgiveness from God, here is prayer you can pray. Saying this prayer or any other prayer will not save you. It is only trusting in Jesus Christ that can provide forgiveness of sins. This prayer is simply a way to express to God your faith in Him and thank Him for providing for your forgiveness.
"Lord, I know that I am a sinner. I know that I deserve the consequences of my sin which is death and hell. However, I am trusting in Jesus Christ as my Savior. I believe that His death and resurrection provided for my forgiveness. I trust in Jesus and Jesus alone as my personal Lord and Savior. Thank you Lord, for saving me and forgiving me! Amen!"
