Freedom to Choose
When God created mankind Adam had a mind to freely choose doing right or wrong. When Moses came down from the mountain it was with tablets of stone to guide the people in what God said to do or not do. Over time man created many religions with rules of what constituted acceptable conduct in the eyes of religion, but God had declared that in his eyes wrong doing was sin and the penalty for sin was the spilling of blood leading to death. Religion declared that sin could be overcome by contrite penitence and a very specific set of rituals.
Penitence and Rituals cannot save you.
God sent his son Jesus born of a virgin and raised as a God fearing man without sin. Jesus was a living human sacrifice who lay down his life to pay the penalty for the sins of the world so that all who believed in him would be saved from death and given the free gift from God which is eternal life.
Jesus declared that he is the life, the truth and the only way to the Father.
Only Jesus can save you.
In this world that we live in we are told that the governments of man can meet your every need. They cannot. We look to politicians and political leaders for the answer, but politics IS the problem.
Men cry “Peace, Peace” but there can be no peace. Without God there will be no peace – ever.
Until the people of this world realize that in their sinful state they need a savior and drop to their knees in humble submission to the King of all Kings, the Alpha and the Omega, the name above all names and plead for forgiveness of their sin (past, present and future) and ask Jesus into their hearts as Lord and Savior – there will be no peace.
Where are you in this walk we call life?
Do you know Jesus?
Jesus loves you so much that he suffered and died on the cross at Calvary so you could have eternal life and reside in heaven with him.
You have the right to choose – will you choose Jesus? – RTM
