1^st Epistle of John ch4 vs7 -19.

Psalm ch103 vs8 – 17.

LOVE!

These scriptures talk about love. There are many definitions and types of love, but God’s most wonderful love for you, me and all mankind cannot be compared to any other!

Some people think that because God is love, they are free to do whatever wrongs as they please in their lives and God will simply overlook them as he IS love. But not so for one moment! ...

It is written in this Psalm (vs11) that His great mercy is toward “them that fear him”.

Also, (vs13) The Lord’s compassion is “on those who fear him”.

Again, (vs17) The Lord’s mercy is from everlasting to everlasting “upon them that fear him”.

Yes, he is indeed a God of great love, grace and mercy – to those who will genuinely repent of their sins. He is Holy and utterly offended by them.

But, God The Father in His incomparable love, has provided the only way of escaping our deserved punishment for our sins. Through sending His only beloved Son, Jesus Christ, into this world, He dealt with our sin problem once and for all.

“As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us”.
 – Psalm ch103 vs12.

Holy God is just – he cannot be in the presence of sin. His love being beyond measure for us, has provided a full and free pardon for our sins through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, His sinless Son. The only One who does not need a sacrifice, being without sin, was made sin for all of us, that we can be forgiven and have our eternity in Heaven with Him.

“But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us”
- Romans ch5 vs8.

“And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son, to be the Saviour of the world.Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God”.
 –1^st Epistle of John ch4 vs14 -15

“Therefore, when Christ came into the world, he said: Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but a body you prepared for me”. – Hebrews ch10 vs5.

Jesus Christ – a man like any other in every way apart from being completely without  sin. It was impossible for Him to sin – He is God! He hungered, thirsted, wearied, wept, but never once sinned. He came and did what we could never do – live a holy, sinless life, and when He gave His life for us on Calvary’s Cross, God His Father fully accepted His blood as atonement for our sins.

“Thanks be to God for his indescribable gift!” – 2^nd Corinthians ch9 vs15.

“You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly”.

 – Romans ch5 vs6.

None of us deserved His love or His gift, but that never affected His wonderful love for each of us.We cannot help ourselves or save ourselves – it is all the work of Jesus Christ on The Cross! We were alienated and enemies to God, but Christ fully satisfied the demands of Holy God, being raised from the grave.

Such was Jesus Christ’s love for each of us, although He was the eternal Son of God -  “All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made”, (John’s Gospel ch1 vs3)  - He still allowed wicked men to take Him and treat Him so badly and cruelly in His crucifixion. 
All our judgement was placed on Him. It was all necessary, that we can be forgiven, escaping eternal punishment in Hell and being made fit to enter Heaven.
"But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed". - Isaiah ch53 vs5.

Dear reader, does this love for you not touch your heart?

Would you not be willing to have The Lord Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Saviour tonight?. Would you not like to be free from your burden of sin and make your peace with God tonight?. Would you not like to be assured that you have a home being prepared in Heaven, to forever live with this wonderful Man who loved you and gave Himself for you?

Simply come in faith, confessing your sins to Him. Ask Him to forgive you and to come into your heart and life as Lord and Saviour. Then with His help, turn away from your past sinful life and follow Him daily.

Real love is not found in modern “pop songs” – it is at Calvary’s Cross, where Jesus Christ died, that you may live!

1 We sing the praise of Him who died,
Of Him who died upon the Cross;
The sinner’s hope let men deride,
For this we count the world but loss

2 Inscribed upon the Cross we see
In shining letters, God is love!
He bears our sins upon the tree,
He brings us mercy from above.

3 The Cross: it takes our guilt away;
It holds the fainting spirit up;
It cheers with hope the gloomy day,
And sweetens every bitter cup.

4 The balm of life, the cure of woe,
The measure and the pledge of love,
The sinner’s refuge here below,
The angels’ theme in heav’n above.

- Hymn by Thomas Kelly (1769 -  1855))

Gospel Meeting 11/03/2018

2^nd Samuel ch12 vs1 – 15.

The build – up to this passage of scripture saw King David gaining great victories in battle, before losing control of his emotions and committing adultery.

Bath-sheba, the wife of Uriah, conceived as a result and King David then arranged for her husband to be sent to the front line of the current battle in order that he would be killed. After this happened, king David took Bath-sheba to be his wife and she bare him a son.

These things greatly displeased The Lord.

The Lord sent Nathan unto king David to make him aware of his great sin, through telling him a story.

Nathan reminds David how good The Lord had been to him, but he had despised the Laws of God and was going to be punished for doing those things secretly.

In the story, David’s anger was greatly kindled against the rich man for what he had done and wanted to kill him, until Nathan plainly said to David “Thou art the man”.

Immediately, David had repentance, saying “I have sinned against the Lord”.

Although The Lord forgave him, there is a message for us all that when we sin it has consequences, and like a pebble thrown into a pond, it ripples and affects other people. This applies whether we are a Christian or not.

It is such a sad story that a man of God, King David, should have done these terrible things.

Where did he go wrong? What lessons can be learnt? …

a)      David should have gone to battle, not stayed at home.

 A challenge – are you in the battle for The Lord, or at home? Perhaps become too occupied with the temporary things of this world?

David should never have seen Bath-sheba, but the devil finds work for idle hands… may our attitude be “don’t remove me from the battle, but draw me nearer to the Cross”!

b)      David was on the rooftop… he saw Bath-sheba bathing and should have left immediately. However, he stayed on and lust took over.

Never put yourself in temptations way! Get off the roof, for the devil is most cunning.

When we look all around us we can clearly see how sin ruins lives.

c)      David enquired as to who Beer-sheba was.

How often do we enquire about sinful things? Once we know, we are able to act in the wrong manner towards it. Never be tricked into “making enquiries”!

Sin is destructive and affects others.

d) “Thy servant Uriah the Hittite is dead…”

A horrible premeditated sin! Always think before we do any wrong deed.

God hates sin, but loves the sinner… even the very worst of us can be saved from our sins and their penalty.

This is the great and good news of the Gospel! – that God The Father sent His Son, The Lord Jesus Christ, who never sinned, to be the sacrifice for yours and everyone's sins in the world. He is the only One who could ever do this because He is and ever was holy, pure and without sin. Love brought Him down into this sin – filled world, and led Him onto Calvary’s Cross, where in great agony He laid His life down, and gave His life’s blood that we may be forgiven and have eternal life in Heaven. To reject God’s most merciful offer of this full and free Salvation, means you are without repentance, and dying in your sins will bring you into an eternity separated from Holy God, forever to be punished in the place called Hell.

d)     King David took Bath-sheba to be his wife.

He tried to hide his sin, but we can never do that. God knows each of us far better than we know ourselves!

Our only way to have peace with God concerning our sins, is through being truly sorry for them, and in faith accepting The Lord Jesus Christ as your Saviour, who makes our peace with God, His Father.

“For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time”.

-   1^st Timothy ch2 vs5 – 6.

“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me”.

 – John’s Gospel ch14 vs6.

Reader, if your heart desires you to turn your life from sin and darkness into light, then receive Jesus Christ tonight. Begin a new life by turning away from a sinful life and turning towards God. He loves you and wants you to come to Him, without delaying it until it is too late…

“If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness”. – 1^st John ch1 vs9.

You can have a clear conscience from this day on – what a tremendous and forgiving God!

Loving your sin more than God? Simply not worth it, dear friend…

“Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death”. – James ch1 vs15.

e)      The story Nathan told made King David furious.

We are very good at thinking ourselves to be better than others. It is easy to condemn others while we ignore our own many faults. However, none of us deserve the great mercy, grace and forgiveness provided by The Lord Jesus Christ!

“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God”. – Romans ch3 vs23.

Let us not, like David, be pointing the finger! Let us all humbly repent and accept God’s wonderful Salvation.

God is not mocked, and we can never hide our sin.

If you are not a Christian and never asked forgiveness, are you still the guilty one in the story (vs7) “Thou art the man”…?

This can be your night with God! What a great opportunity to have your individual peace with God and a changed life! Have no more wasted years, but come to Christ this very hour!

Gospel Meeting 04/03/2018

Ephesians ch2 vs1 – 10.

Verses  1 – 3 concern our death and disobedience – negatives.

Verses 4 – 10 concern our deliverance and destiny – positives.

This letter was from the Apostle Paul, written to those who were believers at Ephesus. It begins by looking back at how they used to be, and the dead condition they were in, before going on to say how they now are – through being “in Christ”.

Friend and reader, where are you right now – are you still in verses 1 – 3?

 Have you never committed your life to The Lord Jesus Christ?

 By simply confessing your sins to Him tonight in repentance and faith, you can move into the blessings of verses 4 – 10!

We are all spiritually dead until trusting Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour.

Verse 1 tells us we were all “dead in trespasses and sins” – from the moment Adam and Eve disobeyed God and ate of the forbidden tree they became spiritually dead, and the process of  death in their bodies began.

We too have all broken God’s perfect rules…

“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God”. – Romans ch3 vs23.

God made man perfect, but we all utterly failed Him through our sinful nature.

Why are we ALL sinners? –

“Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned”. – Romans ch5 vs12.

We are all sinners by descent… no-one has to ever teach a young child to lie, steal or cheat – it comes natural because we are all sinful by our nature!

Verse 5 – “But God, who is rich in mercy for his great love wherewith he loved us” – His mercy is in not giving us what we fully deserve as disobedient sinners…

“But God”!... we can never save ourselves from our due and right punishment of an eternal Hell – but in spite of our position and sinful nature God provided a way for all our sins to be forgiven… he is indeed rich in mercy!

“The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy”.

- Psalm ch103 vs8.

- “… but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance”. – 2^nd Peter ch3 vs9.

Reader, you may ask how then can God forgive sinners, being holy, righteous and unable to turn a blind eye to all our sins?

Yes, sin HAS to be paid for, and God sent the only One who could ever pay our debt in full – His Son, Jesus Christ. On the Cross, He gave His sinless life and body as the acceptable sacrifice for your sins and everyone’s. He paid for it in His own blood that flowed from many a wound. This alone can wash and cleanse us from all our sins, providing full forgiveness when we come to Jesus Christ in genuine repentance and faith. The grave could not hold Him, rising again after three days – justified!

When we trust Him and accept Him as our Saviour, our old life is dead and gone! – vs6 “And has raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus”.

We have new life in Christ, seeking eternal things!

- “If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affection on things above, not on things of the earth. For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God”.

- Colossians ch3 vs1 – 3.

So now we receive by His grace all the blessings which we do not deserve!

Vs8 & 9 - “For by grace are ye saved, through faith: and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God”: Not of works, lest any man should boast”.

None of us can ever have eternal life in Heaven by good works. We can not earn it in any way, but God gives it to us free through His Son!

Faith is personally taking God at His word. Dear friend, if you have not yet done so, then throw yourself on God’s rich mercy… accept His Son and be saved! Jesus Christ died for YOU, and His great love is beckoning for you to come to Him this night!

Gospel Meeting 25/02/2018

John’s Gospel ch9 vs1 – 12.

SUFFERING… Why do we suffer?

Sin is the root cause of all suffering.

Death and suffering came to all people through Adam and Eve disobeying God in the Garden of Eden. They ate of the fruit of the tree which God had told them if they touched it or ate of it they would die.

“Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned…” – Romans ch5 vs12.

People sometimes refer to this world as “the land of the living”, but no, it is the land of the dying. The land of the living is up in Heaven!

There are many types and causes of suffering spoken of through the Word of God, and here in tonight’s passage of scripture the blind man’s suffering was for the glory of God, and to manifest His great power and works.

The sufferings endured by Jesus Christ at Calvary’s Cross are incomparable with any other human being. Yet He was completely innocent!

“… I find no fault in him”.

–   Pilate,  John’s Gospel ch19 vs4.

–         

“… Have thou nothing to do with that just man…”.

–   Pilate’s wife, Matthew’s Gospel ch27 vs19.

“…this man hath done nothing amiss”.

-    the repentant thief, Luke’s Gospel ch23 vs41.

“Certainly this was a righteous man”.

- Roman Centurion, Luke’s Gospel ch23 vs47.

“Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth”.

-   1^st Peter ch2 vs22.

“For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him”.

- 2^nd Corinthians ch5 vs21.

“Just as there were many who were appalled at him – his appearance was so disfigured beyond that of any human being and his form marred beyond human likeness”.

–   Isaiah ch52 vs14.

Why? Why would The Holy Son of God allow Himself to be taken by wicked men, beaten horrendously, then crucified, suffering such a totally unjustified sentence?

The answer is, we sinners needed our debt paying that we could never pay…

Not a single one of us can ever work it off with good deeds.  God will not write our sin debt off because He is holy, loving and just. But sin is so serious that it must be punished, and the sinless, pure and holy Lord Jesus Christ in His great love towards us paid it off – in full! There was none other good enough to do this work for us.

Dear reader, how can you ignore or reject such a wonderful love as this!

“For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous”.

- Romans ch5 vs19.

All our sins were placed on Jesus Christ, and His perfectness is placed upon all we who believe –  we have received His righteousness!

“For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive”.

-    1^st Corinthians ch15 vs21 – 22.

Friend, if you have never yet done so, come to this wonderful Saviour tonight in sincere repentance of your sins, and in faith accept this full and free Salvation. With welcoming arms He bids you come – he did it all for YOU!

“… and whoever comes to me I will never drive away”.

- Jesus Christ, John’s Gospel ch6 vs37.

Gospel Meeting 18/02/2018

Exodus ch11 vs1 – 5, ch12 vs1 – 13.

The backdrop to this message is the children of Israel being in captivity to Pharaoh in Egypt. Their lives were hard, being used as slave labour without mercy.

Moses was instructed to go to Pharaoh and tell him that the Lord God said to let His people go and leave the land of Egypt.

Pharaoh stubbornly refused, resulting in the Lord sending nine successive plagues upon the land of Egypt…

The tenth and final plague involved “the Passover” – which was a representation of the coming death of God’s Son, Jesus Christ.

In due course, Jesus Christ’s sacrificial death when he laid down His life on The Cross, is the means – and only means – whereby we can be forgiven and saved from the penalty of all our sins.

The Lord Jesus Christ, by giving His sinless body and shedding His blood, took away our due judgement with Holy God. Through personal faith and sincere repentance, anyone can ask Him into their life as Lord and Saviour and be saved.

The lamb that each household needed to kill had to have various specifications including  –

a)      without blemish – a type of our Lord Jesus Christ as the Lamb of God, who was ever sinless, pure and holy.

b)      a male in it’s prime – just as our Lord Jesus Christ willingly died in His prime of life.

Jesus Christ’s whole life was completely without sin.

“I find no fault in this man”. – Pontius Pilate, Luke’s Gospel ch23 vs4.

“… I have betrayed innocent blood…” – Judas Iscariot, Matthew’s Gospel ch27 vs4.

Only the perfect sacrifice is acceptable to God as payment for our sins. His Son is perfect!

Ch12 vs2 tells us that this was to be a new beginning…

Dear reader, do you want a new beginning and a new life?

We read that Pharaoh constantly hardened his heart against God – how is your own heart towards God?

Don’t keep delaying making your peace with God through His Son’s atoning work at Calvary – one day it will suddenly be too late with no further opportunity to be saved from an eternal Hell, or to be made fit to enter into an eternal Heaven.

“…behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation”

-   2^nd Corinthians ch6 vs2.

“”Seek ye the Lord while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near”.

-     Isaiah ch55 vs6.

Sin is everywhere – each and every one of us has inherited a sinful nature through Adam, the first man who disobeyed God.Sin entered in, followed by death.

“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God”. – Romans ch3 vs23.

The new beginning was (ch12 vs3) “unto all the congregation”, and the good news of the Gospel is also to everyone… this full and free Salvation through Jesus Christ is available to YOU this night! God loves YOU just as much as He does anyone else in this whole wide world!

All the Old Testament scriptures point to the coming Lord Jesus Christ as the Redeemer.

“For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors, but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect. He was chosen before the creation of the world, but was revealed in these last times for your sake". -  1st Peter ch1 vs18 - 20.

Many people still admire The Lord Jesus Christ’s teaching, morals or life, but this is not enough! Friend, can you truly say tonight he is “MY Saviour”?

In the Passover, the blood had to be applied around the door for the home to be protected… we must also apply the blood that Jesus Christ gave on The Cross for us –by faith, then this cleanses us from all our sins.

“…Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood, And has made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen”.

 – The Revelation ch1 vs5 – 6.

How does one become a Christian?... by realising your own sins, being genuinely sorry for them, and in faith accepting Jesus Christ is God’s Son, asking Him into your heart and life as Lord and Saviour.

Friend, you can never save yourself from the penalty of your sins, only by entering into a personal relationship with this lovely Man, Jesus Christ.

No – one is then promised an easy life – you will still have trials and temptations!

The children of Israel fed on the lamb, and we too must feed on The Lamb of God, by reading His Word and speaking with Him through prayer each day.

Vs8 – the Passover lamb was to be roasted with fire… The Lord Jesus Christ felt the full fire of God’s wrath on Calvarys Cross for our sake. He suffered intensely from cruel, wicked men and Holy God. This is how much Jesus Christ loves us and values us, that He willingly suffered so much on account of our sins.

Vs12-13 – the applied blood provided the only safe refuge from the judgement of God that night…just as all those who have put their faith and trust in Jesus Christ are covered by His own shed blood.

“Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world”

-          John’s Gospel ch1 vs29.

God’s justice is satisfied, paid by the blood of His Son.

“…Christ our Passover is sacrificed for us”. – 1^st Corinthians ch5 vs7.

One coming day, The Lord Jesus Christ is returning to take all His saved people home to be in Heaven with Him. If you are not saved, you will be left behind to face an awful scene in this world. Please grasp this offer of forgiveness while it is still the day of grace.

Ch12 vs4 speaks of “the lamb”, vs5 speaks of “Your lamb”… can you say Jesus Christ is YOUR Lamb of God tonight, dear friend?

Please offer to Him a simple prayer of repentance in faith, and be saved for eternity!

Gospel Meeting 11/02/2018

Gospel of St. John ch4 vs46 – 54.

The prominent words in John’s account are “believe” and “life”.

“But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name”. – ch20 vs31.

John was very selective in the miracles he wrote of, to show specifically that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, Messiah.

God sent His beloved Son into the world, born of a virgin, that He could willingly die to become our Saviour - the sacrifice for all our sins, giving His life and blood on Calvary’s Cross.

He alone lived a holy and sinless life. His death and resurrection paid the price of our sins in full and was wholly accepted by God The Father.

God did this work FOR US, and also works IN US a work of grace, that we as believers in a personal relationship may benefit all that His Son has done and achieved for us in our Salvation.

Faith is essential, and God gives us the gift of faith.

“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God”. – Ephesians ch2 vs8.

God does not believe for us, nor is it by proxy – it is the personal responsibility of every human being.

Faith is more than accepting that certain things happened, or there was “a man called Jesus”.

Belief is personal conviction and commitment, entrusting ourselves to Jesus Christ.

Coming in repentance of our sins to Him, believing He is the Son of God who died on the Cross and arose from the grave. Simply ask His forgiveness and ask Him into your heart and life as your Lord and Saviour. Then by surrendering your will to Him, you can turn away from being sinful and begin a new life pleasing to Him.

Death, as ever, is no respecter of persons – in this passage of scripture we are told of a rich nobleman’s son who was at the point of death.

He pleaded with Jesus Christ to come down from Cana of Galilee to Capernaum, that there He may heal his son.

However, being in someone’s presence is not essential with The Lord Jesus Christ…

“The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed”… “And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way: and as thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed the selfsame hour”. -  Matthew’s Gospel ch8 vs8 &13.

For Jesus Christ’s power to be exercised, the nobleman had faith and believed the word of Jesus –

“The nobleman saith unto him, Sir, come down ere my child die. Jesus saith unto him, Go thy way; thy son liveth. And the man believed the word that Jesus had spoken unto him, and he went his way”… “So the father knew that it was at the same hour, in the which Jesus said to him, Thy son liveth: and himself believed, and his whole house”. – vs49 & 53.

When Jesus Christ becomes our own Lord and Saviour, we too must trust Him at His word. He is always with us through His indwelling Holy Spirit.

Friend, come to Christ tonight, in genuine repentance, in a real and lasting saving faith. Know and enjoy the peace of all your sins forgiven, and a personal daily relationship with God’s Son, Jesus Christ.

“And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen.” – John’s Gospel ch21 vs25.

Gospel Meeting 04/02/2018

The Acts of the Apostles ch13 vs13 – 43.

This was Paul’s sermon given in the synagogue at Antioch, Pisidia, (now Turkey).

What a subject he chose – Jesus Christ, God’s promised Saviour!

The whole Bible from beginning to end concerns God’s love for His creation and the sending of a Saviour.

 Paul outlined the history of Israel, which was in preparation for the coming of Jesus Christ.

Though Israel was continually rebellious, God was sure and faithful in sending the long – promised Saviour of sinners.

No ruler, king or anyone else could do what The Lord Jesus Christ did!

“For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord” 

– Luke’s Gospel ch2 vs11.

God’s plan for Salvation, known even before the foundations of the world, had now arrived in the birth of His Son!

No amount of “religion”, or any teacher, ever saved anyone, but this Man is able to save everyone who will come to Him in repentance and faith.

“…What think ye of Christ? Whose son is he…” – Matthew’s Gospel ch22 vs42.

How will you answer this question tonight?

We all need a Saviour, and God provided Him in the person of His Son, Jesus Christ.

Being saved from the penalty of our sins – an eternity in hell – is the most important thing that can ever happen to you!

Friend, can you say tonight that He is your Saviour?

It is an incredible thing to be a Christian, to have a real change of heart and life!

Ask this most wonderful man to be your personal Lord and Saviour tonight – He is willing and waiting to save you!

Despite Israel rejecting Him, and mankind’s disbelief, God provided The Saviour.

Jesus Christ was holy, pure and sinless. He gave His life at The Cross as a sacrifice for the sins of everybody, taking our punishment on Himself. He arose justified!

“But God raised him from the dead” – vs30.

“…Why seek ye the living among the dead? He is not here, but is risen…”

- Luke’s Gospel ch24 vs5 – 6.

History was forever changed at Calvary!

Jesus Christ is unique. He is the Lord of Glory!

vs38 – “Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins”

- just what every human being needs!

“For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord”        

 - Romans ch6 vs23.

“For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him”. – 2^nd Corinthians ch5 vs21.

We have a wonderful God and a wonderful Saviour.

If we still have our sins unforgiven, they are a crushing burden upon us, taking us to a lost eternity separated from God, in that most awful place called Hell.

Friend, if you have not yet done so, please make sure that tonight you come from certain death into certain life, through The Lord Jesus Christ.

“So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God”.

- Romans ch10 vs17.

Embrace it – say this is for me! Have all your sins washed away for ever by the blood of Christ, and a home awaiting you in Heaven – with Him, the one who loved you and gave Himself for you.
