God is Holy (Infinitely perfect, right, and good on every level at all times). As such, He is the Creator and Keeper of all.

Sin Must be Punished
We don’t deserve to be in the presence of God’s holiness by anything we can be or do.

Jesus, God in Human Form, Paid the Penalty for Sin
Jesus shed His blood, died on the cross, and rose again in our place for our sin.

The moment we have faith in Jesus Christ alone to save us from the guilt and price of our sin, sincerely claiming His forgiveness, He accepts us, never to leave us.
Rom 10:9- “If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.”
