The Alpha and the Omega!

 We serve an everlasting GOD.  Our GOD is the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end.

Our FATHER is GOD.  Our Saviour is Jesus.  Our Counsellor is the Holy Spirit.  And these three are the Triune GOD.  All three were there at the beginning of Creation.

All three were present when Adam sinned.  Jesus, the Son of GOD was therefore sent to Save the world - from eternity in hell.  

Without Jesus coming to the earth as a man, we could never attain the righteousness needed to enter into the Kingdom of Heaven.  Only the coming of a Saviour could give us the way needed to atone for our sinful natures.

Nothing we can do of ourselves will get us into Heaven.  The only way to eternal life with our FATHER is through HIS grace and mercy in sending HIS only Son to die on a cross for us.  On that cross the FATHER poured out HIS wrath on Jesus.  All our sins are nailed to that cross.

So once we admit that we are sinners.  When we believe in Jesus and when we confess this truth, the Counsellor, the Holy Spirit takes up residence in our hearts.  The Holy Spirit convicts us of our sins.

But if we go back to sinning, we are just nailing our Saviour to that cross over and over again.

Tonight we celebrate Christmas Eve, the time of expectation of the arrival of our Saviour, Jesus Christ.  Time to reflect.  Time to anticipate.  Time to rejoice!

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, thank YOU for Jesus Christ.  Thank YOU for the Prince of Peace.  Thank YOU for the mighty Counsellor.  Thank YOU for YOUR immense grace and mercy.  I thank YOU in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ.  Amen.

Stay truly GOD blessed tonight!  May the peace and joy and love  of Jesus Christ fill your hearts and homes.
