If you want to know what God is like, look at Jesus.<\/h3>\n
Christianity came about because of one person \u2013 Jesus Christ. Most people have heard about this person called Jesus but not everyone agrees on who he was.<\/div>\n
\n
\n

\u00a0Some think he existed but was an inspirational man, a great moral teacher. Others think he was a just a lunatic.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n

In many ways it\u2019s understandable that people would think this, he made some extraordinary claims! In the Bible he claimed he was the Son of God, that he was perfect, had the power to forgive people\u2019s wrongdoing and that by accepting who he was, humankind could have a real, living relationship with the God of the universe.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

But what if it this were true? Have you ever wondered?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

What if there really is a God who created everything, including you? Who loves you and wants to have a relationship with you so much that he sent his Son, Jesus, to the earth to endure a horrific public execution so that you don\u2019t have to be punished for your wrongdoing?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

What if, by believing in this Jesus, you could experience a very personal relationship with the God who knows you better than anyone else?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

A God entirely committed to doing good for you and wants to give you hope for the future? This is the very basis of the Christian faith \u2013 a relationship with a loving, faithful, gracious God, made possible because of Jesus.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
