It is so important because you are a pearl of great price stolen from the treasure chest of God’s kingdom by sin.

Just like the person who does not know that they have cancer until they get an MRI, you may feel that there is nothing wrong with you.  However, you are no exception. Sin is the inherited disease of the human soul that infects every person ever born. Sin destroys the image of God in which humankind was created and separates every person from fellowship with God. Sin results in the eternal death of every person.

You are no exception to this disease that infects every human being. Without God’s gift you are destined to eternal death. But God in His love for you has provided the cure that will restore you to His fellowship and eternal life.
