What did Jesus Christ do?

Did God intend for us to fall into sin?
It was NEVER God’s intention for humanity to fall into sin. Since it happened, God also made provision for us to be put back into a life-giving relationship with God through Jesus Christ.
What did God do as a result of The Fall?
Where humanity fell short, God took it upon Himself to live a life that is totally committed to God and completely free from sin for us. Through the death, burial, resurrection, and ascension of Christ; God saved us from eternal separation from God, death, and hell.
What is Grace?
Grace means ‘gift’, so literally, salvation comes to us as God’s free gift when we confess with our mouths and believe in our hearts that the salvation work of Jesus Christ is real.
What are the three means of Salvation?
Confession, faith, and belief are all what we do in response to this awesome invitation that God extends to us in the plan of Salvation.
What was the death of Jesus Christ?
The death of Jesus was an atoning death. That means it paid the debt humanity owed because of sin. When Jesus died for us, He fulfilled that debt.
