A BEAUTIFUL LOVE STORY

A lot of people do not understand what it means when you tell them God loves them, God's  love cannot be measured but here is the most powerful story of all time, that which is the love story between you and God.


When Christ came to the earth, he came in our nature, to know what it meant to be you and I living on earth, to show us that because he could conquer sin, that through him we can also conquer sin. While on earth, He taught us how our relationship with God should be like, by learning from his relationship with the father. He taught us that signs and wonders follow his gospel. The life of Jesus literally taught us everything we needed for life. Christ is like that friend that comes into your life and at that very moment, you are upgraded. That friend who goes through thick and thin with you just so he would understand you better and to show you how much love he has for you.

After his work on earth was done, the time came for him to die for you and me. Salvation  means deliverance, and the reason for this death is so you and I might be saved forever. ( Hebrews 10 vs 10 : For God’s will was for us to be made holy by the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ, once for all time.). As long as you believe in the saving grace of Jesus ALL your sins are forgiven, I mean the sins which you would have committed your entire lifetime. (1 John 2 vs 12 12: I am writing to you who are God’s children because your sins have been forgiven through Jesus, Hebrews 10 vs 17  i will never again remember  their sins and lawless deeds). When you believe in Jesus Christ, you are being made perfect in Christ, you are made righteous because an exchange was made and the gift of righteousness was given to you (Hebrews 10 vs 14 For by that one offering he forever made perfect those who are being made holy. Ephesians 2 vs 8-9 God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. 9 Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it). Righteousness is a gift from God, not given to us based on how we have been or based on how well we've behaved or based on what we've done for God, we didn't work for it. He freely gave it to those believe in Jesus. This is hard for many to believe, but it's how this works, it's the word of God.

It doesn't matter how your past has been, God is earnestly waiting for you to come to him.

You may have been saved but you see yourself still involved in one or more things that may make it seem like you are not really God's own. First of all, understand that you've been delivered from the power of sin and you are no longer a slave to sin, live in this reality (Romans 8 vs 1  So now there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus. 2 And because you belong to him, the power of the life-giving Spirit has freed you from the power of sin that leads to death). Stop condemning yourself and hold on to the grace of God made abundant unto you, because when God sees you, he sees Jesus(righteousness) as a result of that exchange that was made when Christ died. You remain God's own because nothing can snatch you out of God's hands. You've been made righteous and the Holy spirit is at work in you so you will live like the righteous person that you are, just trust God. The Holy spirit is the seal God has placed over you to claim you as his own. Hence, the devil no longer has power over you.

If you dont believe in Jesus Christ, you are not saved and now is an opportunity to be saved. (Romans 3 vs 22: We are made right with God by placing our faith in Jesus Christ. And this is true for everyone who believes, no matter who we are.) This is beyond being a regular church goer, being religious or just being a good person. You have to acknowledge the finished works of Christ by believing in Jesus Christ. Say this prayer of salvation to be saved. "Lord Jesus, I believe in my heart that you are the son of God who died for all my sins, I declare you Lord over my life, I believe that I have been made righteous by your finished works" Amen. You've been saved! God is happy to receive you. Welcome to the family.
