God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whosoever believes in him shall not
perish but have eternal ife. God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but
so the world may be saved through Him. John 3:16-17
The Southern Baptist Faith understands that a personal relationship with a Loving God through
his Son Jesus Christ is the basis for a joyful life. At the First Baptist Church of Bushnell, we know
that the Bible is the Word of God, and that it teaches us the way to Salvation.
We know that our Salvation can only come be recognizing and accepting the Grace of God
through the sacrifice and atonement of our Lord Jesus Christ.

 | The Bible shows us that good works alone are not enough to save us, for none of us are capable of | |
| perfection. For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. Roman 3:23 | ||
| But God shows his mercy and love for his children by providing the gift of salvation. For the wages of | |
| sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Romans 6:23 | ||
| Although we created sin through disobedience, Jesus Christ accepted the punishment for us through | |
| his suffering, death and resurrection. But God commendeth his love toward us in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8 | ||
| To accept this gift of eternal life and to appear worthy before God, all He asks of us is to love Him. For | |
| whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Roman 10:13 | ||
| How do we accept such a humbling gift? With an open and grateful heart. That if thous shall confess | |
| with they mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart, man believeth unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made into salvation. Roman 10:9-10 |
