Good News
God Loves You
Have you ever seen a glove like this? This glove tells a wonderful story, a story of good news. That is why we call it the good news glove.
Do you like to hear good news? Yes, everyone likes to hear good News.
This glove tells 4 things which God wants you to know. These 4 things just fit on the 4 fingers of this glove and on the 4 fingers of your hand.
Listen to this good news that God wants you to know.
This yellow finger tells you God loves you and has a wonderful plan for your life.
The Bible says:
But - Not all boys and girls have this joyful, happy life.
You Have Sinned
This dark finger tells why. It says:
All men, women, boys and girls are sinful and separated from God.
This is why they cannot know and enjoy God's love
and plan for their lives.
This dark finger tells us that all have sinned.
God is light as the yellow finger tells us. But we are going our way in the darkness of sin.
Sin separates us from God and God's way. This is not good news, is it? And I told you that this was a good news glove.
Jesus Died and Came Alive for You
This red finger tells us:
"God shows His love for us. While we were still sinners, Jesus Christ died for us. We have been saved from the punishment of sin by the blood of Christ."
Romans 5:8-9
That means that He was punished for our sins. He took our place.
This is why Jesus Christ can say:
I am the way, the truth, the life. No man, woman, boy or girl can come to God, the heavenly Father, but by me.
John 14:6
This is good news!
But: it is not enough just to know these 3 things.
- God loves me
- I have sinned
- Jesus died and came alive for me
When You Receive Him You are Forgiven and have Life Forever
This white finger says: To have a new, clean life, you need to receive Jesus Christ as your Savior.
Remember the yellow finger says:
For God loved you so much that He gave His son, Jesus Christ, that you who believe in Him will not be separated from God but will live forever. --John 3:16
Do you like to receive gifts? You can receive God's greatest gift, Jesus Christ, right now.
The Bible says:
If I had a gift for you right now, would you say, "Oh, no thank you, I don't want it"? You would take it, wouldn't you? A gift is ours as soon as we receive it. Jesus Christ is God's free gift of love to you.
