He Paid the Price for me
Christ died for the ungodly. Oh snap he died for me!!!!!!!!!
Christ did not come to earth to help perfect people, but
to help the ungodly sinners(me).
Romans 5:8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we
were still sinners, Christ died for us.
Christ paid the price for the forgiveness of our sins
through His death.
In Ephesian 1:7 In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness
of sins, according to the riches of His grace
Lucifer tries to make people think God does not love them
because of their sins. But nothing could be further from the
truth. God loves sinners! Christ died to save a sinners like me.
1 Timothy 1:15 This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptance, that
Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am
chief.
Paul said he was chief sinner, I tell you tonight that I'm a
Master chief of sinners, I do not say this with pride but shame,
for I know that had it not been for Christ I would be dead and gone
I would be spending eternity in hell.
God is against sin because it is harmful to us.
If God could not or would not help a sinner, then He would
never help any human. The Word of God tells the opposite story. We
have all missed the mark of perfection so we all need a Savior.
And we all have a Savior if we will but receive Him.
If that had been necessary, Christ would have had to die
again and again, ever since the world began. But now, once for
all time, he has appeared at the end of the age to remove sin
by his own death as a sacrifice.
The sacrifice of Christ was sufficient to deal with all sin. You
have been forgiven. Accept that forgiveness. Turn away from sin.
And walk with God for we are bought with a price the shedding of Christ blood for you and I.
Next time life does not go your way or God does not answer your prayer.
Before you utter those words that God does not care, remember this
he did what no man could or would have done for you!!!
He died for you, he paid your price and took your punishment.
My bible tells me that all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God
meaning that we deserved to die and go to hell.
But Christ loved us so much that he knew that hell was not designed for mankind.
So he came to give us a choice, to be set free of sin and live with him for eternity in
heaven.
Lord let us each judge ourselves daily, let us each bow down on bended knees
and confess our sins one to another , but most us let us seek your face and to live
according to your word. For we by ourselves have proven that we are failures.
But through you we are made righteous .
Thank you oh Lord, for your love, for your grace and mercy.
