Good morning! How are we faithing? A nation can make a covenant with God. If the nation breaks it, the nation will reap the consequences. An individual breaks a commandment, that individual pays the price. I can't pay for your sin against God and you can't mine. Now because of that we were to weak to not break commandments thus a redeemer was necessary. Jesus is that redeemer, the Messiah. You think God will weigh your good deeds against your bad and you think or hope the good outweighs the bad and you'll get in heaven or at the least stay out of torment in hell? Where did you get such a notion? We can be redeemed through Christ the Lord. This season is all about the birth of that Messiah. I know it isn't actually his birthday but that isn't the point at all. Without this redeemer we were all under judgement of what we do wrong. Now our eternity is not decided by that if we accept the free gift of salvation. We don't lose freedom, we gain it. Before salvation by the redeemer we were slave to sin and would reap the consequences. Now we have freedom to pursue righteousness without fear one little slip would cause it all to go away. That is true freedom.Think on this today....
Joh 8:31-36
Jesus therefore said to those Jews that had believed him, If ye abide in my word, then are ye truly my disciples; and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. They answered unto him, We are Abraham's seed, and have never yet been in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free? Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Every one that committeth sin is the bondservant of sin. And the bondservant abideth not in the house for ever: the son abideth for ever. If therefore the Son shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
