God loves us all - unconditionally
God loves us all; those who accept him
and his son Jesus,and those who don't; those living in
sin and those trying to live righteous lives; his heart
is that he does not want to lose one of us.
That is why he sent his son to save us. The Gospel
message is that we cannot save ourselves. (For it is by
grace you have been saved, through faith - and not from
yourselves, it is the gift of God - not by works so that
no-one can boast. - Ephesians 2:8+9).
Although many have heard that Jesus died on the cross
to pay for our sins, they still somehow believe it is by
leading a good life and doing good works that they can
earn a place in heaven. They fail to see that the only
way is through Jesus, and that it is a gift. They simply
need to reach out and take it.
What we must all realise is:
- That we are all sinners -
"For all have sinned and fall short of the
glory of God."(Romans 3:23);
- That our inquities separate us from God (Isaiah
59: 2)
- That that wages of sin is death (Romans 6: 23)
- That is why we need a saviour, and that saviour
is Jesus (But he was pierced for our
transgressions;he was crushed for our iniquities;
the punishment that brought us peace was upon
him, and by his wounds we are healed. - Isaiah
53:5)
- All we need to do is accept this, repent of our
sinful life, and receive Jesus as our saviour and
Lord. That means making him master of our life.
The Bible says: Yet to all who recieved him, to
those who believed in his name, he gave the right
to become children of God. (John 1: 12)
- Paul calls it, "the mystery that has been
kept hidden for ages and generations, but is now
disclosed to the saints" (Colossians 1:
26) Jesus said: I am the way and the truth
and the life, no one comes to the Father except
through me. (John 14: 6)
- He also said: Come to me all you who are weary
and burdened, and I will give you rest.(Matthew
11: 28)
Won't you accept Jesus's invitation?
Recieve him into your life and make him your saviour
and Lord today.
