GPP 25: The Only Way

God hates sin: It’s offensive to Him;
“The wages of sin is death!” He decreed;
The whole human race has sinned—all of them;
When this life ends, hell must for each succeed!
Unless one’s sins are forgiven by God,
Each of us will live fore’er, and e’er burn;
Jesus alone can cleanse the lives we trod—
Belief in Him will one’s pathway turn!
There is no other way, despite falsehood;
Confess Jesus Lord, and raised from the dead,
Then, all your sins are forgiven for good,
And you will escape the fate sinners dread!
Let not the world convince you otherwise;
Satan controls the world, and feeds its lies!

Promise Made: Acts 10:43 (Peter speaking)—“ ‘All the prophets testify about him [Jesus] that everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name.’ “ [Brackets added]

“For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16)

“That if you confess with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord’, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” (Romans 10:9)
