You are The REASON Christ came! He died for YOU…
In Christian theology, the central message of Jesus Christ’s coming and sacrifice is rooted in grace, Love, and redemption.
Why Christ Came and Died
To Show God’s Love: Scripture teaches that God demonstrated His love through Christ’s sacrifice, dying for humanity while people were still separated or “sinners” rather than waiting for them to become righteous.
To Bring Forgiveness and Salvation: According to passages like John 3:16, Jesus came so that believers might not perish but have eternal life, bridging the gap caused by sin.
To Restore Relationship with God: The purpose of the cross was to cleanse, forgive, and bring humanity back into fellowship with God through a final sacrifice.
A WHISPER FROM HEAVEN!
📌 With God, no one is a lost cause!
We live in a fallen world filled with woeful stories and cases – Job’s predicament sampled it. He lost all his property and children in one day before a deadly sickness came upon him. To his wife, he was a lost cause but to God, he was a branch of uprightness, a specimen of God’s power, miracles and restoration.
Summary of Job 1:1-22
- Job’s Character & Blessings: Job is introduced as a blameless, upright man living in the land of Uz who fears God, shuns evil, has ten children, and possesses immense wealth.
- Satan’s Challenge: Satan appears before God in heaven and claims Job only serves God because of His protection and material blessings, challenging God to strip them away.
- The Trials: God permits Satan to test Job by destroying his livestock, servants, and all ten of his children in a series of sudden disasters.
- Job’s Response: Job tears his robe, shaves his head, falls to the ground, worships God, and does not sin or charge God with wrongdoing.
Reflection: Being A lost cause for God is a choice!
The prodigal son would have been a lost cause for his earthly family and to God but for his repentance – Hope in Christ never fails!
The truth? We all have different stories of sin and troubled but God’s Love through JESUS has settled it all; so that whoever believes in Him will not ever be a waste, but bear fruit worthy of the cross… So, let Him transform you!
May we be relevant to God, Amen.🙏🔥
