The Bible says, “For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.” (John 3:17)
Our Lord Jesus Christ claimed:
. That He is the God of the universe who came to live among us.
. That He died to set us free from sin and rose to give us eternal life.
. That those who believe in Him and are born of the water and the Holy Spirit are
a new creation and will have eternal life in the Kingdom of God to come.
Many born again believers of Christ all over the world have testified having a personal relationship or life-changing encounter with the Lord Jesus Christ.
