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 Truth

 People tend to only understand what they believe in. . . . That's the scary thing about this life. People tend to only have understanding of what they believe in and only that. . . . Look at a child struggling with maths, for example. That little boy or girl is not dumber than the other ones or not blunter then the rest. The kid just doesn't believe in the subject, maths, for satisfaction.  . . . The little kid rather plays a lot of video games or watch movies and cartoons 24/7. Why? That's what the kid believes in for satisfaction. Hence he understands everything about video games and doesn't have a clue about anything regarding maths. . . . The same applies to every human being. Every single individual are more likely to have an understanding in what he or she believes is the Truth. . . . That's why there are diverse religions, political ideologies, conspiracy theories e.t.c. Also consisting of people who have gone deep into that specific belief. These people are...

ITS ONLY CHRIST THAT SAVES

 ITS ONLY CHRIST THAT SAVES. Romans 10:1 Brothers and sisters, my heart's desire and prayer to God on behalf of the Jewish people is that they would be saved. Romans 10:2 I can assure you that they are deeply devoted to God, but they are misguided. Romans 10:3  They don't understand how to receive God's approval. So they try to set up their own way to get it, and they have not accepted God's way for receiving his approval. Romans 10:4 Christ is the fulfillment of Moses' Teachings so that everyone who has faith may receive God's approval. Apostle Paul saw that his people, though were very devoted about God, had no idea that they weren't saved. The Jews believed that the only way to God was through the Law of Moses and fulfilling its morals.  Jesus said "I am the Way, Truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through me". The Jews, though believed there is a Messiah, didn't know what the Messiah was saving them from. Hence, they rejec...

THE GOSPEL part 1

    THE GOSPEL part 1 What is the Gospel?  The Gospel is the message of GRACE..... as distinguished from the LAW.That means that the message of the Gospel (Grace) is a clearer image or better explanation of the message the Law was trying to portray. *Colossians 2 vs 17 *Hebrews 10 vs 1 What is the Law? Also known as the Torah, the Law is the name the Jews gave the first five books of Moses. It comprises of both the law given to Moses on Mount Sinai and the laws handwritten by Moses for the people of Israel. The Law was made to prevent the people of Israel from sinning. In Romans 2 vs 14, Apostle Paul revealed that there was also Law for the Gentiles such as Consciousness or thoughts judging their actions.      The Gospel cannot be fully understood and explained from the OLD TESTAMENT because Christ and His work is the true revelation. The Law was a faulty and unstable description of God's plan for mankind. What is the Gospel? "For God so loved the world, th...
