When Adam sinned, he separated himself and Eve from GOD. Up until that point, GOD had walked with them and they had a living close relationship with GOD.
Through sin, death entered the world and also the need for laws and atonement.
Now when Jesus came to this earth, firstly, He was not born of a human man, but He was born of GOD through a virgin birth.
In other words, in Him there was and is no sin. Not only that, but although tempted by Satan, Jesus never sinned.
So when Jesus was sentenced to death, He went to the cross sinless and blameless. He became the living LAMB of GOD. Sinless and blameless He took all of our sins onto that cross. Our sins, present, past and future were nailed to that cross with Him and the wrath of GOD was poured out upon Him.
Then, in a final act on earth, Jesus gave up His soul and died.
Three days He lay dead in that tomb. Then in order to demonstrate His Deity, Jesus conquered death and rose from it. Appearing to various people on earth for a further forty days, before He finally ascended into Heaven to sit at the right Hand of GOD our FATHER.
Thus Jesus overcame not only sin, but Jesus did what the law could never do. Jesus gave us redemption. The law can never redeem us. Only our acknowledgement of our sin, our belief in Jesus as our Lord and Saviour and our confession of this truth can redeem us and give us an eternity to spend in the company of our CREATOR GOD.
The alternative is eternity in the lake of fire - hell!
You can choose today, Heaven - or hell. You have free will and you can decide. That is our gift from GOD. HIS grace and our free will.
Prayer: ABBA FATHER, I thank YOU for YOUR grace. I choose admission of guilt as a sinner, belief in my only Saviour - Jesus Christ and I confess this truth with my mouth today. Amen.
Stay truly GOD blessed today!
