Bible Study #6 - The theme of the Bible

JESUS! GOD! RULES!

I'm sure these are some of the things that come to mind when a lot of people think of the Bible. But they're fairly well off the mark. Yes God and Jesus and Obdience to God are part of the bible... they're not the complete thing.

Christ was treated as we deserve, that we might be trated ad He was condemned for out sins, in which he had no share, that we might be justified by His Righteousness , in which we had no share. He suffered the death which was ours that we might recieve the life which was His.

The Plan of slavation was not an after though, God had the plan right from the beginning, as soon as there was sin there was a Saviour. We all know that the wage of sin is death (Romans 6:23) Wages are what we earn and what we deserve, but a gift is something undeserved! You don't have to do anything to get a gift, if you do it ceases to become a gift. God has given us the gift of eternal life, all we have to do it reach out and claim it!

When you are the citizen on a country you have all the rights and protection of a citizen, even when living in another country. When we accept Jesus as our Saviour and commit our lives to Him, we recieve the gift of eternal life and immediatly become citizens of heaven, with all the rights of said citizenship.

Having said of this, The real theme of the bible?

OUR SALVATION!
