The Death of Jesus Christ on the Cross

What does it mean to you about the death of Jesus Christ on the Cross? Does it matter to you deeply? That God have so much love to you?

In Romans 6: 3-6
3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:
 6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
The death of Christ had the purpose. The purpose of GREAT Salvation to each one of us in this world. Because Salvation is Available to Everyone, and can never be altered by anyone who are in EVIL works.

IN THE EYES OF GOD

His(Jesus Christ) death on the CROSS paid the penalty of our SINS that separates us from GOD . That we(SINNERS) will be like Christ in the EYES of God and will be SINLESS and RIGHTEOUS.

That we(SINNERS) have dropped off our wickedness and our Sinful Nature(the Old Man) and was cleanse. That our Sinful Nature and being in the lust of the flesh is DEAD and we were revived as a NEW Creation(Holy Nature).

If you read further on Hebrews 8:12 "For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more."


Our sins will never remember by God once we are to believe on the death of the Son of God(Jesus Christ). That we are saved by his death and cleansed by his blood.

Jesus Christ is the TRUE LAMB


John 1:29 "The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world."


If you have read the Old Testament of the Holy Bible, you will find out that God requires the sinner to OFFER SACRIFICES. He requires every people to give burnt offerings once they commit sins.


Genesis 8:20 "And Noah builded an altar unto the LORD; and took of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt offerings on the altar."


God Commanded the Offerings


Exodus 20:24 "An altar of earth thou shalt make unto me, and shalt sacrifice thereon thy burnt offerings, and thy peace offerings, thy sheep, and thine oxen: in all places where I record my name I will come unto thee, and I will bless thee."


Everything about Offerings and Sacrifices from the Old Testament was manifested and was ended/accomplished by the TRUE LAMB that was crucified to paid all the Sins of the World. After then, NOTHING will be worthy to GOD, even your good works least you will believe in the SON!

Romans 5:8 "But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us."

His GREAT LOVE and MERCY unto us SINNERS is not shortened. Our sins are already paid through the death of Jesus Christ. For us MAN(SINNERS) can't save ourselves from SIN through good works. Because  we are all an UNCLEAN THING! Read Isaiah 64:6 "But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away." Didn't you noticed why you still unsure of your Salvation even you did many good works? That's because you haven't believed and received Jesus Christ as your savior.

YOU are SAVED by GRACE

Ephesians 2:8 "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:"


Ephesians 2:9 "Not of works, lest any man should boast."


You are saved because of the death of Christ on the Cross. You are not saved and you cannot be saved by your good works! BELIEVE first on the NAME of Jesus Christ and BELIEVE on what HE hath done from the cross for you and RECEIVE HIM as your GOD and personal savior!

If you are not Saved today and has not yet received Christ Jesus as your PERSONAL SAVIOR, then the best time to take action to receive HIM is NOW! We both don't know when will our time comes, it's either in the next year, month, weeks, minutes, seconds or milliseconds...

If you are ready to Receive Christ NOW, visit the page "I WANT TO RECEIVE JESUS CHRIST". Do not delay if you HEAR and UNDERSTAND the Gospel NOW!

If you are a saved person, Thank that to God Daily and every minute of your life and share the Gospel to everyone who doesn't receive and believe yet in the Son of God which is Jesus Christ.

Hope this post helps you understand and appreciate the very great thing that our Lord Jesus Christ did for us. 

He teaches us to LIVE by FAITH and not by WORKS.
