His Saving Grace
Acts 4:12
There
is salvation in no one else! There is no
other name
in
all of heaven for people to call on to save them. (NLT)
Because
the LORD is both gracious and merciful to the people He so carefully creates,
He sent His only Son to save His people and the rest of mankind from the self-destruction
of sin. Christ Jesus was the final
Sacrificial Lamb of God who was slaughtered for the sins of the world. Our Lord God became fully human so He could
live with His people, heal the sick, feed the hungry and to bring hope to all
peoples of this fallen world; a world that is cursed by sin, filled with
suffering, sickness, heartbreak, and death.
God knows that without His mercy and saving grace, mankind would perish
forever. Jesus healed the sick, fed the hungry, raised the dead and showed
people who God really is. The Lord came to us, because we would not come to
Him. He lived on this earth as a man and
suffered just as we suffer, was tempted just as we are tempted, and died just
as we, too, will die.
The
Creator of the Universe gave His own life and His own blood to cleanse us of
our sins and to take our punishment. There are only two paths that we can
choice to follow; there is a wide path that is well traveled, for it is the
path the world recommends—ways that are pleasure oriented, self-centered,
prideful and self-loving—ways that will ultimately lead to condemnation and
eternal death. And there is a much
narrower path that is God centered and takes you straight to the foot of the
Cross of Christ, where you are cleansed by the blood of the Lamb and covered
with the righteousness of Jesus. You
will escape the final wrath of God and receive the gift of eternal life in the
new Heaven on Earth. The sacrifice has
been made and the price has been paid in full.
You have been forgiven and your life has been saved! Believe it, accept
it and let the Lord do the rest!
A
Whisper of Hope
Take
My Hand, dear child…for I will lead you on a life-journey that is out
of this world. There are many paths that lead nowhere but straight to
Hell. Only one does not. Choose the path to salvation that I paid for
with My blood and death, because you cannot afford the price, nor can you be
worthy to receive it. So, I give it to
you as a gift.
Psalm 84:11-12
For the LORD
God is our Light and Protector.
He gives us
grace and glory. No good thing will
the LORD with hold
for those who do what is right.
O LORD
Almighty, happy are those who trust in You.
(NLT)
For
by grace you have been saved through faith…
it is the gift of God.
(NLT)
