ONLY JESUS CHRIST CAN OPEN OUR EYES TO THE TRUTH OF THE GOSPEL!

This is the condition of every human being born: Sinner!!! Only Jesus erases our offenses and sins by his blood shed on the Cross!

Ephesians 2:1.And He made you alive, when you were dead in trespasses and sins,

2. In that you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, according to the spirit that now works in the children of disobedience;

3. Among whom we also all formerly walked in the desires of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and we were by nature children of wrath, like others also.

4. But God, who is rich in mercy, because of his great love with which he loved us,

5. Even though we were dead in our trespasses, he made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved),

6.And he raised us up together with him and made us sit in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus;

2 Corinthians 4:4-18

4 in whom the god of this age has blinded the minds of those who disbelieve, so that the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, does not shine to them. 5 For we do not preach ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and we ourselves are your servants, for Jesus' sake. 6 For God, who said that light should shine out of darkness, has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, so that the excellency of the power belongs to God and not to us. 8 We are troubled in every way, but not distressed; perplexed, but not discouraged; 9 persecuted, but not helpless; slaughtered but not destroyed; 10 always carrying everywhere the mortification of the Lord Jesus in our bodies, so that the life of Jesus may also be manifested in our bodies. 11 And so we who live are always given over to death for Jesus' sake, so that the life of Jesus may also be manifested in our mortal flesh. 12 So that death works in us, but life in you. 13 And we have therefore the same spirit of faith, as it is written, I believed; That's why I spoke. We believe too; Therefore we also speak, 14 knowing that he who raised up the Lord Jesus will also raise us up through Jesus and will present us with you. 15 For all this is for your sake, so that grace, multiplied through many, may make thanksgiving abundant, to the glory of God.

The design and effect of afflictions. Visible things are contrasted with invisible ones

16 Therefore we do not faint; but even though our outward man corrupts, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. 17 For our light affliction, which is momentary, is producing for us a more exceeding and eternal weight of glory, 18 as we look not at the things that are seen, but at the things that are not seen; for those which are seen are temporal, and those which are not seen are eternal.
