Today’s Thought “A Universe at Stake” G. Ward

John 3:16-17

“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life. For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but so that the world might be saved through Him.

 

The Incarnate Christ (God in the flesh – John 1:1-3, 14) presented Himself in earth to attack righteously and compassionately, the issue of man (i.e., rebellion and evil -*Jer.17:9) and whereas we’ve been taught a subversion in defining these descriptors as solely belonging to the vilest of sinners, any (small or great) portion that can be named among us, indicts our guiltiness.

Our Savior however, stepped in, having stood in our stead, offering Himself as the Perfect Lamb of God; the Only suitable sacrifice for our deliverance. Such reprieve is too awesome for us who’ve placed our absolute trust in HIS directives; particularly because we know that those horrible descriptors (of earlier) belonged to us and now our days’ strongest desire is to share the wealth of such merciful kindness. This is not just an American message…
