The Christians at Adamsdown Gospel Hall believe that the Bible is the Word of God to humanity. God is totally perfect and we have all fallen short of this standard 1. Sin is not reaching this standard. Just one sin is sufficient to separate us from God forever 2.

He cannot have sin in His presence. This means that no-one can survive in their sinful state. However, God wanted men and women to be with Him, but the problem of sin had to be resolved.

God provided a wonderful solution. A just God required that all sin had to be punished and the appropriate punishment was death. But, rather than that sentence falling upon us who are sinners, He would provide His Son to pay the penalty 3.

1 For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God Romans 3:23
2 Your iniquities have separated you from your God Isaiah 59:2
3 For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given Isaiah 9:6
