Jesus' proof of how much Jehovah loves the descendants of Adam and Eve. It proves how much Jehovah loves you. He went to great lengths, subjecting himself to the worst pain imaginable in order to rescue you from sin and death. (1 John 4:9, 10) Yes, he wants to help each one of us to fight against sin-and to win!
God's gift, the ransom sacrifice of his only-begotten Son, makes it possible for us to have our sins forgiven. But to receive God's forgiveness, we must do something. What is that? John the Baptist and then Jesus Christ himself provided the answer: "Repent, for the Kingdom of heavens has drawn near." (Matthew 3:1, 2; 4:17) So repentance is key if we truly want to fight against sin and draw close to our loving Father. But what is involved in being repentant, and how does it help us to combat our sinful condition? The next study article will provide the answer.
