THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD - PART 321

So what if some do not believe the scriptures. Shall their unbelief make our faith in God ineffective? Oh death where is your sting? Oh grave where is your victory? For the promised SEED of the Holy Spirit coming forth from a woman has made us more than conquerors!

Yes, JESUS took upon Himself all of our sin and iniquities. As it is written, He who knew no sin became sin so that we through His sacrificial death on a cruel roman cross would by God’s grace be brought again to a lively hope -- a hope and assurance that has made us more than conquerors in life and death -- through a vibrant living faith in God our Saviour!

How do we know this? JESUS put Himself in our place! It was His everlasting love for us that caused JESUS to endure the cross and despise the shame. Yes, JESUS was nailed to the cross for you and me.

Years I spent in vanity and pride,
Caring not my Lord was crucified,
Knowing not it was for me He died
On Calvary.

Mercy there was great, and grace was free;
Pardon there was multiplied to me;
There my burdened soul found liberty,
At Calvary.

By God's Word at last my sin I learned;
Then I trembled at the love I'd spurned,
Till my guilty soul imploring turned
To Calvary.

Now I've given to Jesus everything,
Now I gladly own Him as my King,
Now my ramsoned soul can only sing
Of Calvary.

Oh, the love that drew salvation's plan!
Oh, the grace that brought it down to man!
Oh, the mighty gulf that God did span
At Calvary!

God descended so that you and I can by the grace and mercy of God ascend. Do not judge yourself unworthy of eternal life God stretched out His arms so that we could rest in His arms. So that He could take our burdens and lighten our load. All we have to do is RETURN TO ME - JESUS - FOR I HAVE REDEEMED YOU! Peace to all in JESUS!
