Jesus claimed to be the Son of God. Throughout his life he did many signs, in front of many witnesses, to prove his identity. Even the centurion who saw him die said “Truly this man was the Son of God”.

Jesus claimed to have the authority to forgive sins – something only God can do. He came to die on the cross, taking the punishment we deserve for our rebellion against God. He rose from the grave, showing that those who believe in him have the forgiveness of sins and eternal life.

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” [John 3:16]
