"Forgiveness Through Jesus"

 

“Forgiveness Through Jesus”

 

“Therefore, my friends, I want you to know that through Jesus the forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you.  Through Him everyone who believes is set free from every sin, a justification you were not able to obtain under the law of Moses.     Acts 13:38-39

 

FORGIVENESS is a CRUCIAL part of the SALVATION experience.  The act of FORGIVENESS is GOD’S part of the SALVATION plan, and BELIEVING in JESUS CHRIST, and ACCEPTING Him into your HEART is YOUR part of the SALVATION PLAN.  God’s part included the substitutionary work of REDEMPTION, through the SACRIFICE of JESUS CHRIST, on an OLD RUGGED CROSS, and the MIRACULOUS work of God in the RESURRECTION of JESUS.  One cannot have SALVATION apart from this PLAN of SALVATION.

 

If they are NOT willing to BELIEVE and ACCEPT JESUS CHRIST as their SAVIOR and LORD, there is NO HOPE for them to be able to spend ALL their ETERNITY in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS.  And therefore, there is NO JUSTIFICATION.  JUSTIFICATION is the ACT of GOD in which, He DECLARES to be RIGHTEOUS, those SINNERS, who have BELIEVED and ACCEPTED Jesus as their SAVIOR and LORD.  It is a LEGAL act that takes place in the very MIND of the HOLY, RIGHTEOUS GOD, and it CLEARS, and gives FREEDOM FROM EVERY charge brought against the sinner who has become a TRUE BELIEVER.  Then they NOT ONLY RECEIVE FORGIVENESS of their SINS, but they NOW have the HOPE of an ETERNITY in HEAVEN.  Do you POSSESS His FORGIVENESS and His JUSTICE?  Or are you facing an ETERNAL DESTINY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE after you are there?

 

In order to receive God’s FORGIVENESS and His JUSTIFICATION, you MUST be WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your sins, and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.   Then CONFESS your sins to Him and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  And BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  You MUST ACCEPT His Gift of SALVATION, and be FORGIVEN and JUSTIFIED, along with the HOPE of HEAVEN as your ETERNAL HOME.  Do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and COMING SOON!!!
