So God Gave . . .
Jesus Christ, His only Son
in sacrifice for our sins.
| For He (God, the Father) hath made Him (Christ, His Son) to be sin for us, Who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him. II Corinthians 5:21 |
| For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. John 3:16 |

Since God could accept only death for our sin, the one escape for us was if a sinless one, undeserving of death, and able to defeat death, could die as our substitute, dying for us. That is exactly why Christ died! He took our sins to make us righteous.
God loved us so much that He sent His Son (God in the flesh) to die for us. Because Christ died for our sins, was buried, and rose again the third day, He can save us from sin IF we will believe on Him to. God's Bible way to Heaven is Christ!
