Summary: Shows Christians some of the real benefits of believing in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.
Benefits of Believing
Romans 5.1-3
There are many benefits in believing in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior of our lives. First and foremost is eternity in the presence of Christ and an escape from the punishment we so deserve.
There are four other benefits that we often overlook as Christians and I want us to look at them today.
I. Peace with God
Isa 32.17
John 16.33
Eph 2.14a
Col 1.20
II. Access to God (to God’s Grace)
Eph 3.12
Heb 10.19
John 10.9
III. Hope
Heb 3.6
Psalm 16.9--11
A-will not leave my soul in hell
B-Jesus will prevail
C-Guide us down life’s path
D-Joy unspeakable
E-Pleasure for eternity
Rom 15.13
IV. Glory in Tribulation
Matt 5.11-12
Rom 8.35-39
Phil 2.16-18
