Another excerpt from the powerful, life-changing message on: GOD STILL FORGIVES!
The heart of the Gospel is for people to be forgiven their sins.
— Acts 13:38 “Therefore, my friends, I want you to know that through Jesus, the forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you."(NIV)
— Luke 24:47 "and repentance for the forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem."(NIV)
God faithfully keeps on forgiving our sins, and He has never failed.
Jesus paid for all of our sins at the cross.
The greatest work Jesus Christ did on the cross was to pay our entire debt of sin.
If Satan had any claim against you, Jesus cancelled it at the cross.
Our Salvation is based on Jesus Christ and not our perfection.
— Ephesians 2:8-9 "[8] For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—
9 ]not by works, so that no one can boast."(NIV)
Nobody is good. It is only Jesus Christ who is good, and through His indwelling presence, we are being made perfect.
Our own righteousness in the eyes of God is like filthy rags
— Isaia 64:6 "We are all infected and impure with sin. When we display our righteous deeds, they are nothing but filthy rags. Like autumn leaves, we wither and fall, and our sins sweep us away like the wind."(NLT)
Our own righteousness does not qualify us to stand before God.
That is why Jesus, when He ascended to Heaven, sat at the right hand of God the Father, making intercessions for us.
We always approach the throne of God through our Lord Jesus Christ, and that changes everything
— Hebrews 4:16 "Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need."(NKJV)
Our Salvation is based on Jesus Christ and not our perfection.
We are not made perfect and accepted by God because we give our offerings and tithes, because we give to the poor and the needy No!
We are not made perfect and accepted by God because we give our offerings and tithes or because we give to the poor and the needy. No!
Those deeds do not qualify you if Jesus Christ does not have the right place in your heart. They are deeds equivalent to filthy rags, according to Isaiah 64:6.
— Ephesians 1:7 "In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace"(NIV)
— Our redemption is only through the blood of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, by God's grace
— Our forgivenes is only in accordance with the riches of God’s grace.
