Today we are going to be looking at just how much Jesus loves us and as you can tell by almost everything around you we are going to be using the movie Finding Nemo as an illustration.

He who does not believe has already been judged guilty, because he has not believed in God’s only Son.

Confess. A person must confess her faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord.
We do this by making a short prayer Romans 10:9
