   Then stop denying that you retain a sin nature and should confess your   
   sins to God every day   
      
   “Pray then like this: “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your   
   kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us   
   this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts, as we also have   
   forgiven our debtors.” (Matthew 6:9–12, ESV)   
      
   “If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in   
   us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our   
   sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say we have not   
   sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.” (1 John 1:8–10,   
   ESV)

   Have you heard the good news Christ died for our sins (†), and God   
   raised Him from the dead?   
      
   That Christ died for our sins shows we're sinners who deserve the death   
   penalty. That God raised Him from the dead shows Christ's death   
   satisfied God's righteous demands against our sin (Romans 3:25; 1 John   
   2:1-2). This means God can now remain just, while forgiving you of your   
   sins, and saving you from eternal damnation.   
      
   On the basis of Christ's death and resurrection for our sins, call on   
   the name of the Lord to save you: "For 'everyone who calls on the name   
   of the Lord will be saved.'" (Romans 10:13, ESV)
