Animation Salvation

Last week we talked a lot about the rubbish in our lives called sin...
As we mentioned, sin can enslave us and bring harm into our lives but God wants us to have SALVATION.
Salvation brings life, freedom and a relationship with God. To experience this freedom we must believe that God died and returned to life to save all of us.

Sometimes all the 'church talk' around 'being saved', 'coming to faith' or being 'born-again' really does our heads in! What does it all mean? How do you even know if you are 'saved'? If you have questions around these things than please ask your leader or officer about it. They can pray with you and ask God to make it real for you too! If you feel you don't have anyone around or nearby that you can talk to about this stuff comment on here and we would love to start a discussion with you (publicly or privately) and we can pray with you over the virtual world :) Being part of an emerging generation is so fun and has so many benefits! We don't have to feel isolated by space or time, use technology to connect with friends, leaders and your faith!

Here's some discussion points to get the ball rolling or for you to think about;
What does God want to rescue us from in our lives?
What might that look like in your own life?
What has God done to save us?
Why did God save us?
What must I do to be saved?

I tried making a video for you guys this week but it was first of all too big and then when we tried to convert it to make it smaller it was sideways. So we abandoned that idea. But if anyone knows how to compress video without turning it sideways give us a holler, we would love some help.

Read the book of Romans this week to understand salvation in your own time.

P.S if you wanna know more check out what Wikipedia says about Christian Salvation here, or watch this cute Salvation Animation.
