Saved from Death

      A while ago, I had committed many sins. I had lied, stolen, and filled my heart with lust and anger. Instead of following God, I had followed my money.
      Eventually I was caught in my crimes and was brought before God to be judged. I was immediately found guilty of sinning against God. God decreed that my punishment was execution. In great sorrow, I proceeded to go to my punishment.
      When the time came for my execution, something unexpected happened. God in his great mercy intervened and had his own Son take my place. Because of his mercy, he had taken his own perfect Son and had him executed instead of me. From that day on, I vowed to be God's slave and obey God for as long as I should live.
