In the book of John 3:16,the bible said For God so love the world that he gave his only begotten son that anyone who believe in him shall not perish but have everlasting life. So God sent his son Jesus Christ to save man from sin. His purpose is to make man closer to God by washing away man's sin.

He make you new and pure before God.
