Romans 6:10-11 (NKJV) 10 For the death that He died, He died to sin once for all; but the life that He lives, He lives to God. 11 Likewise you also, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
He died once for all.
Jesus, the son of God, came to earth as a human being and walked among men for 33 years.
He didn’t come to put on a show. He didn’t come just to be known as a good person. He didn’t come just to show people that He could teach others.
Jesus, the Christ, came to earth to redeem us from our sin. He came to bring us life to the fullest. He came to pay the price for our sinful ways and bridge the gap between mankind and God… the gap that was created by sin.
Jesus hung on a cross, held there by three large nails through his wrists and feet. He endured the cruelest of deaths as payment for the things that you and I have done; The terrible, shameful sin that we all commit throughout our lives.
Now, this isn’t being written to make you feel guilty, ashamed or condemned. Jesus took that shame and guilt onto Himself on the cross. And when He died, He offered you the chance to have your guilt and shame wiped away.
You just need to ask. You just need to reach out to Him and tell Him that you know you’re guilty of the sins you’ve committed. And ask Him to forgive you and make you new.
It’s that easy… that straight forward. Reach out and take the gift being offered to you by God, through Jesus, and be made whole and new. Done deal.
And then turn from your sinful ways and walk in life as a new creation in Christ, dead to sin and alive in Christ.
Don’t wait. Don’t put it off any longer. Today is your day. Take that step right now.
