Well, we are close to a week away from Good Friday. I often wonder if believers fully understand the significance of what happened on that day. I thought I would share some thoughts on Christ’s death, and how it effects us today in 2016.
We should be grateful and thankful people for all that Jesus did for us. Be
sure to thank Him for saving you, and invite someone to church so that they
may hear the gospel, and might be saved.
Blessings,
Pastor Scott
- “and behold, the curtain of the temple was torn in two, from top to bottom.” (Matt. 27:51) The Holy of Holies was sacred to the Jew. It was entered only once a year, by the High Priest. The average person had no experience or knowledge of that special place. But now, because of Christ’s death, we all may enter that Holy place through the blood of Jesus. We may have intimate fellowship with God on an ongoing basis.
- Because Christ paid our sin debt on the cross, we all may receive his divine forgiveness. “If we confess our sins, God is faithful and just to forgive us our sin, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” (I John 1:9)
- Our salvation was secured because of Christ’s obedience. “it is finished.” (John 19:30)
We should be grateful and thankful people for all that Jesus did for us. Be
