(Numbers 21:4-9; Psalm 110; John 3:13-15; Colossians 1:15-20; Philippians 2:5-11) | St. Athanasius On The Incarnation

Question 6: How Does God Save You?

God forgives my sins and reconciles me to himself through his Son Jesus Christ, whom he has given to the world as an undeserved gift of love. “God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” (John 3:16; see also Zechariah 12:10-13:2; Psalm 34; Romans 3:23-26) | Numbers 21:4-9 | CS Lewis Mere Christianity | 39 Articles of Religion in Modern English
