What Does God Want From Me? Part One

What Does God Want From Me? -- Part 1

A sermon given by Pastor Cliff Allcorn on August 10, 2008 at Grace Church in River Grove, IL. Contrary to popular opinion, Jesus is the only way to God. All religions, except one, teach that you must work your way to God. That includes many "Christian Churches" that teach false gospels. Scripture is very clear that God only accepts absolute perfection and there is nothing we can do to earn His favor. How can God declare sinful men justified. Watch this video and find out.

5. All men are sinners in the need of redemption.
6. The second member of the Godhead, the Word of God, became the God-man of history by being born of the Virgin Mary.
7. Jesus was crucified on the cross of Calvary, and died a death he did not have to die, to pay for our sins.
