As Believers, we need to have a greater understanding of the gravity of God's sacrifice. If we'd actually look deeper into what happened on the cross, we would see that nothing ordinary occurred there. There would be much more value given to Jesus if we could understand what He's coming took and the changes it made.

In the Acts of the Apostles, when Peter encountered some Jews, he told them about Jesus.....

"You rejected the man who was holy and innocent. You asked to have a murderer given to you, and you killed the source of life. But God brought him back to life, and we are witnesses to that." [Acts 3:14-15 (God's word)]

Jesus coming to this Earth caused Him His very own life! To save you and I, He had to die.

It looks and sounds easier on paper right? Imagine being killed by the ones you came to save? That's how much it took from Him.

However, the book of Hebrews says....."𝑯𝒆 𝒔𝒂𝒘 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑱𝒐𝒚 𝒂𝒉𝒆𝒂𝒅 𝒐𝒇 𝑯𝒊𝒎, 𝒔𝒐 𝑯𝒆 𝒆𝒏𝒅𝒖𝒓𝒆𝒅 𝒐𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒄𝒓𝒐𝒔𝒔 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒊𝒈𝒏𝒐𝒓𝒆𝒅 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒅𝒊𝒔𝒈𝒓𝒂𝒄𝒆 𝒊𝒕 𝒃𝒓𝒐𝒖𝒈𝒉𝒕 𝒖𝒑𝒐𝒏 𝑯𝒊𝒎".

Now, the question is "What was the Joy He saw ahead?" "Through the blood of his Son, we are set free from our sins. God forgives our failures because of his overflowing kindness." [ Ephesians 1:7 (GNT)]

Through the death of Jesus on the cross, we are set free from our sins! And our failures are all gone! Hallelujah!!!

Can you see what Jesus has achieved for us and what it took for Him? Apostle Peter said in his first Epistle that..."𝑯𝒆 𝒄𝒂𝒓𝒓𝒊𝒆𝒅 𝑯𝒊𝒔 𝒐𝒘𝒏 𝒃𝒐𝒅𝒚 𝒐𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒄𝒓𝒐𝒔𝒔 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒔𝒊𝒏𝒔 𝒘𝒆 𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒎𝒊𝒕𝒕𝒆𝒅. 𝑯𝒆 𝒅𝒊𝒅 𝒔𝒐 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒘𝒆 𝒎𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕 𝒍𝒊𝒗𝒆 𝒊𝒏 𝒓𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕𝒆𝒐𝒖𝒔𝒏𝒆𝒔𝒔, 𝒉𝒂𝒗𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒏𝒐𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒕𝒐 𝒅𝒐 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒔𝒊𝒏". This is what Jesus did for us.

This sacrifice that Jesus made is the reason for Christianity and our access to the Father. Now the Holy Spirit, which is God's Presence and Answer, has been given to us in our hearts forever.

Jesus Christ is now the only hope we can hold onto, the only person who is ever faithful and the only place where true love is found.

As much as we acknowledge God for any other miracle that has been done, always remember to praise Him for the price He paid.

Jesus is the reason we are living.

THE TRUE PLAN AND INTENTION OF GOD

TRUE PLAN AND INTENTION OF GOD Romans 9:22 And the same is true of what God has done. He wanted to show his anger and to make his power known. But he was very patient in enduring those who were the objects of his anger, who were doomed to destruction. Romans 9:23 And he also wanted to reveal his abundant glory, which was poured out on us who are the objects of his mercy, those of us whom he has prepared to receive his glory. During the time of the Law, God was supposed to show his anger to Man for their sins but he was very patient. What is God's anger? The departure of his presence. He would leave those that has rejected Him. Outside of God is destruction. God knew that we were doomed for destruction. Due to the greatness and richness of love he has for us, he focused more on getting us saved than our flaws. "He is not slow in fulfilling his promises but he is patient, that all may come to repentance." God's plan has also been to show us his abundance of G...

Ephesians 2:4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love with which he loved us, Ephesians 2:5 Even when we were dead in sins, has quickened us together with Christ, (by grace you are saved;) Ephesians 2:6 And has raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: 𝖤𝗏𝖾𝗋𝗒 𝖢𝗁𝗂𝗅𝖽 𝗈𝖿 𝖦𝗈𝖽 (𝖻𝖾𝗅𝗂𝖾𝗏𝖾𝗋) 𝗂𝗌 𝗌𝗂𝗍𝗍𝖾𝖽 𝗍𝗈𝗀𝖾𝗍𝗁𝖾𝗋 𝗂𝗇 𝖢𝗁𝗋𝗂𝗌𝗍 𝖩𝖾𝗌𝗎𝗌 " 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝘃𝗲𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲𝘀".

Understanding God

Beloved, let your understanding of God be based on what is written in the scriptures. . . . See, when you have a poor understanding of the scriptures or no understand at all, you will percieve the character and personality of God amiss. . . . One thing you must understand is that Jesus Christ is the true and perfect description of God. Look at Hebrews 1 vs 3 Hebrews 1:1 This Son perfectly mirrors God, and is stamped with God's nature. He holds everything together by what he says—powerful words! The Son is how God is. Jesus is God in the flesh. . . . Every single description and understanding of God outside of the person of Christ is very wrong. . . . Look at this, every single person on Earth, after the Fall of Adam, until Christ came chose to have little or no understanding of who God was. Romans 1:28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; They chose not to retain ...
