Gospel Meeting 01/02/2015

Dr. Gareth Crossley read John 3 vs.14-16 and Numbers 21 vs.4-9.
We are never commanded to be born again, but we are commanded to repent and believe.
We need to see things from God's perspective, we are sinners before Him.
1/ doing what is wrong.2/ not doing what is right to God's standard.
God's love is pure and intense and Holy.
The wages of sin is death, the soul that sins will die.
They realised that they had sinned against God and offended Him.
They had to look and live.
We have to believe and live.
Jesus bore all our sins as if they were His own and God punished His Son for them all.
2 Corinthians 5:21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.
The serpent was the cause of sin in Genesis, and the serpent on the pole was a picture, a lesson about Jesus dying on the cross so that we could live, He was punished in our place, which shows us the love of God to us
