Saved from Sin

Saved from Sin

For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive by the Spirit.
I Peter 3:18

The Bible says, “We have all sinned and fallen short of the Glory of God”(Romans 3:23) and “The wages of sin is death” (Romans 6:23).

If we believe the words of the Bible, we must be aware of the fact that we need cleansing and that we cannot do it ourselves. Salvation from our sins is only possible through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

To accept this gift of salvation, we must believe that Jesus is the son of God and that he came to die for our sins. When we accept Him as our Lord and Savior, we need to repent and turn from our sinful ways to follow Him.

We are saved by grace, but we still need to honor the Lord with our lives. Turn away from the path of unrighteousness and allow His Spirit to guide you in all you do. In doing so, you will draw closer to God. “Seek the Lord while he may be found; call on him while he is near” (Isaiah 55:6).

Place Jesus at the center of your life today and every day. Your eternal salvation depends on it.

This is what the Lord Almighty says

This is what the Lord Almighty says: 'Administer true justice; show mercy and compassion to one another. Zechariah 7:9 Karrion was five days old, and she was dying. She was born in the south of Sudan as her mother tried to return home from the violence in the north. Though starving, Karrion refused her mother's breast and curled against her to die. One look at Karrion's tiny face and a decision was made-we could not lose this one. We made it in time, thank the Lord! This time the story had a happy ending, but for thousands of others in violent, anti-Christian Sudan, the ending is not as joyous. Countless will starve to death unless the Church takes to heart its God-ordained role to be a source of help to a dying world.

they rejoiced exceedingly with great joy

“ When they saw the star, they rejoiced exceedingly with great joy…. And they fell down and worshiped him .” Matthew 2:10-11 Worship was such an important part of that first Christmas . The wise-men worshiped Jesus in the house where they found him. The prophetess Anna and Simeon worshiped in the temple. The shepherds’ hearts were filled with praise as they hurried to find the child and then shared the good news with others. The place of worship was different for all of them but their hearts were overflowing with praise and adoration. Do we take the time to worship the Lord during this Christmas season ? It doesn’t really matter whether we worship in our home, in our church, at a Christmas concert or banquet or maybe it’s, ‘ on the run ,’ as we dash through the mail and hear the music, “ Silent Night ”. The only thing that matters is that our hearts are lifted in praise and worship to the Lord. Is there a song of praise on our lips at Christmas? How easy it is to see the work, feel

JOY COMES IN THE MORNING

Joy comes in the morning. Psalm 30:5 Sing the praises of the LORD, you his faithful people; praise his holy name. For his anger lasts only a moment, but his favor lasts a lifetime; weeping may remain for a night, but rejoicing comes in the morning. When I felt secure, I said, "I will never be shaken." LORD, when you favored me, you made my royal mountain stand firm; but when you hid your face, I was dismayed. To you, LORD, I called; to the Lord I cried for mercy: "What is gained if I am silenced, if I go down to the pit? Will the dust praise you? Will it proclaim your faithfulness? Hear, LORD, and be merciful to me; LORD, be my help." You turned my wailing into dancing; you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy that my heart may sing your praises and not be silent. LORD my God, I will praise you forever. Psalm 30:4-12 Posted via email from sistersister's posterous
