Unbroken, part 3

This week at Edge was the gospel night which means that we shared the part of the gospel story that is so unbelievable! The part where God in His amazing love for us, made a way for man to get back into a right relationship with Him through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ! Here are a few points...

We are broken through our sin and hopeless.
Because of our sin, we are desperate and hopeless. There is nothing we can do to save ourselves (Rom. 3:23, Rom. 6:23). Seperated from God.

God, in His amazing love, decided to make a way to save us when there was no way.
God sent Jesus Christ to this earth to save us with one mission and that was to die to take on our sin. When we were powerless, He came and saved us. (Rom. 5:6-9)

Jesus Christ took our place on the cross.
He died the death that we should have died so that we could have a life that we didn't deserve. (2 Cor. 5:21).

He was broken so that we don't have to be broken anymore (unbroken).
Christ took all the brokenness, all the shame, all the pain, and all the sin when He was nailed to the cross. (Isaiah 53:5)

We finished with a video clip to show our brokenness before God. I will post the video in another post. It was a powerful time for students to reflect on the brokenness in their life and the forgiveness that is offered through a relationship with God through Jesus Christ.

At the very end, students wrote prayers to God about their own brokenness in their life.
