“The Origin Of the Plan Of Salvation”
God, for whom and through whom everything was made, chose to bring many children into glory. And it was only right that He should make Jesus, through His suffering a PERFECT Leader, fit to bring them into their salvation. Hebrews 2:10
I believe this whole chapter of Hebrews tells us of the ORIGIN of God’s Plan of SALVATION for the SOULS of ALL MANKIND. We know the Bible speaks a lot of the DEPRAVITY of MANKIND, and what this WICKEDNESS in their HEARTS, can do to their ETERNAL DESTINY. So, God, in His ABUNDANT MERCY and AMAZING GRACE, has a PLAN for the CURE of this SIN-SICKNESS, which affects ALL of MANKIND, from ADAM to the very LAST person to be born.
ALL of mankind are born with a SINFUL NATURE, and therefore they have within them the DESIRE to sin against the Almighty God, and His Laws. But it is GOD’S Choice to bring MANY CHILDREN into GLORY, (Heaven). So, from birth to the age of ACCOUNTABILITY, they are SAFE in JESUS. This AGE of ACCOUNTABILITY varies with each individual. But once they have reached that AGE of ACCOUNTABILITY, where they are AWARE of their SINS, they will be HELD ACCOUNTABLE for them. And they will face the same CHOICE of ACCEPTING or REJECTING God’s Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, who SUFFERED and DIED, for them to be ABLE to be brought into GLORY.
Since mankind are FLESH and BLOOD, Jesus, became FLESH and BLOOD, and was made a little lower than the angels, like mankind, and NOW is crowned with GLORY and HONOR, because He SUFFERED DEATH so that by GOD’S GRACE He might taste death for EVERYONE. In carrying out GOD’S PLAN of SALVATION, Jesus also, destroys the one who holds the power of death—the devil, and FREES those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death. (Vv 9,14) They NOW can have the HOPE of an ETERNITY in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS, and be ABLE to ESCAPE an ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE, once they are there. If you have NOT given your HEART and LIFE to GOD, through His Son, JESUS CHRIST, which will you choose, to ACCEPT or REJECT?
In order to ACCEPT, you MUST ADMIT that you are a SINNER in NEED of the SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST. And you MUST BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you. You MUST CONFESS your sins to Him, and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS. And you MUST be WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your SINFUL LIFESTYLE, and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART. You MUST ACCEPT God’s Gift of SALVATION and receive an ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS. Do this NOW, while you STILL can. He’s WAITING and COMING SOON!!! Don’t be LEFT BEHIND!!!
