.”Amazing Love”

 “Amazing Love”

 

For the Love of Christ controls us, having concluded this, that one died for all, therefore all died; and He died for all,  so that they who live might no longer live for themselves, but for Him who died and rose again on their behalf.  2 Corinthians 5:14-15

The Apostle Paul shared that the LOVE of CHRIST controls the TRUE BELIEVER, and having come to that conclusion, the message, Paul wanted the people to know was that ONE died for ALL, therefore ALL died to their OLD LIFE.

Christ died for EVERYONE so that those who receive His NEW LIFE will no longer LIVE for themselves, but they will live for Him who DIED and ROSE again on their behalf. And since we TRULY KNOW HIM, means that ANYONE who KNOWS HIM has become a NEW PERSON. The OLD LIFE is GONE, and a NEW LIFE has begun. 

God has given the TRUE BELIEVER the TASK of SHARING the GOOD NEWS: JESUS SAVES!! For God was in Christ, RECONCILING the WORLD to Himself, no longer counting people’s SIN against them.  WOW! What an AMAZING LOVE!!

And God has given the BELIEVERS this message of RECONCILIATION to SHARE with a LOST and DYING world.  SADLY, there will be MANY who will reject the message. But there will be SOME who will ACCEPT it.  It is up to the BELIEVER to be OBEDIENT to God, and be about His business of RECONCILING this WRETCHED, WICKED WORLD from the HORRORS of and ETERNITY in HELL. 

If you are NOT a BELIEVER, you NEED to be NOW.  Don’t put it off!! Time is RUNNING OUT.  Here is what you MUST DO to COME to JESUS.  You MUST ADMIT that you are a SINNER in NEED of the SAVIOR; JESUS CHRIST, GOD’S SON, who DIED to give us ALL ETERNAL LIFE.  You MUST BELIEVE with ALL your HEART, that JESUS DIED for YOU, and that He is in Heaven making intercession for you before GOD. You MUST CONFESS your SINS to Him and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS. 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 a “WELL DONE!” From the LORD JESUS for fulfilling the TASK of RECONCILIATION!!   Do this NOW, while you STILL can. He’s WAITING and COMING SOON!!!  Don’t Be LEFT BEHIND!!!
