God created man without sin and without evil thoughts. At the beginning man did not even have an idea of evil. Man therefore chose to obey to Satan's voice who is his crafty ennemy. Man has let himself being dragged into sin and into desobedience towards his Creator.

Man can not be repaired

2nd March

It is impossible to repair man!

This choice has a disastrous consequence: Humanity has deteriorated into lies, selfishness, hatred, violence, corruption etc....

The efforts for improvement have not failed. Often man has tried to define values (philosophies, morals, ideologies, offficial declarations...) and to apply behaviour rules (good manners, tradition, laws, charters...). These efforts however have ended up in partial and superficial improvements: we can repress violence, lies, selfishness and corruption, but we cannot stop the origin. Our efforts reduce the effects without removing the cause.

The heart of human being stays marked by its deterioration in spite of the efforts for improvement and correction.

Your own efforts can not give you forgiveness, delivrance and a new heart. Jesus Christ is the only one who can give you these things through his voluntary sacrifice. He died on the cross for you. You only need to believe it, to submit yourselves to him and to answer his love. Let yourselves be changed by God!
