Steve and Rich continue last week's discussion on the atonement. If you didn't listen to last week's episode, we would highly recommend you do that before diving into this week's conversation. As the listener you hopefully understand that the atonement accomplished reconciliation with God and purification and cleansing from sins. Some common questions are, why did Jesus even have to come in the first place? Does a good life get you to heaven? Is it possible for us to be good enough to save ourselves? How do you know that your sins are forgiven? The answer to so much of this is simple - it's faith in Jesus Christ. Faith in Jesus is to understand that He as the Son of God died for us and that we put our trust for our eternal life in Jesus and in Jesus alone. Jesus alone is key. Steve and Rich both reflect on trusting in Jesus as the best decision they have ever made in their lives. This and much more is discussed in this conversation and we hope it brings you to a deeper understanding of the importance and significance of the atonement.
