My Sin and Misery

What must I know to live and die in the joy of this comfort?

• Three things.
• First, how great my sin and misery are;
• second, how I am set free from all my sins and misery.

For the Bible Tells Me So...

Romans 3:9,10 

• What then? Are we better than they? Not at all. For we have previously charged both Jews and Greeks that they are all under sin. 
• As it is written: “There is none righteous, no, not one.” 

1 John 1:10 

• If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us. 

John 17:3 

• “And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.” 

Acts 4:12 

• “Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” 

Acts 10:43 

• “To Him all the prophets witness that, through His name, whoever believes in Him will receive remission of sins.”
