________________ Path of Attainment - Christianity Man's plight is caused by disobedience to God's will as revealed in the law of God found in the Bible. By this sacrificial act of Jesus Christ, God, out of sheer grace and love made it possible for all to have complete forgiveness of their sins. Jesus' resurrection from the dead is proof of God's power over sin, death, and proof that he can save in this way. Those who accept God's gift of salvation are empowered by the Holy Spirit to begin to live a life of increasing virtue and obedience to God and accept Jesus Christ as their personal Savior and Lord. Jesus is to return again to judge the world and bring God's rule to earth. Through following the law of God as found in the Holy Bible and through God's grace, man attains salvation.
