Three steps to escape sin.

My post "Is this about sin?" was perhaps too long for a quick read.

Here's the short version

1. Sin is separation from our creator-God and ends in death.

2. Christ, God in human form, defeated death in his resurrection, and evidenced his divinity.

3. He offers us to benefit from this and accept new life in him.

We gain the new life (re-generation, or 'born again') by accepting his offer and following him.
