When the revelation of that truth fully hit me it caused me love Him even more. And now I know for a certainty that salvation is in His hands and not ours. I also realized if no one from Moses to Jesus could keep the law and by it no one was made perfect I kind of figured I was no different. When I trying to keep all the 2,362 commandments of both new and old testment I found the verse in Romans 3;20, and quickly realized I was going about it the wrong way and then the understanding of why I always had so many problems was brought to light. Thank the Lord Jesus that we still have His written word or I could only imagine where people would lead us!
Hebrews Chapter 10:12 But this Man, after He had offered, (ONE SACRIFICE) for (SINS) "plurality, means all sin" (FOREVER) sat down on the right hand of of God. " Sounds like a finished work for all, when are we going to start teling them the good news so they can come to The Lord instead of thinking they can't be forgiven or that God hates them?? |
Not sure what the source is of this last line. I don't think anyone on this thread believes that sinners can't be forgiven or that God hates them. ???
