People before Jesus.
Since Adam rebelled at the beginning, the Creator instituted only one way for a person to be declared righteous and that is through repentant trust in the coming Victor. The Lord promised his Victor would be the seed of a woman when he cursed the serpent (Genesis 3:14-15).

John the Baptist explicitly named Jesus, “the Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world” (John 1:29). This Lamb was also the Lion-King of the tribe of Judah, the Messiah or Christ (Revelation 5:5), the Son of David and the Seed of Abraham (Mathew 1:1; Galatians 3:16).

Anyone, who trusted in the promise of the coming Son, now “born of a woman, born under law,” was justified, delivered from both the curse and obligation of the broken divine law. Jesus has now come to fulfill the complete and loving righteousness demanded by the holy Creator-God (Galatians 3:13-14, 4:1-7) so that a great exchange took place from the beginning. We see this most clearly in 2 Corinthians 5:21, “He who knew no sin became sin on our behalf so that we would become the righteousness of God in Him.” True justifying trust has always worked its way out into a new lifestyle of giving love (Habakkuk 2:4; Galatians 5:6; James 2:14-26; 1 John 3:11-16).

Since the Gospel message is based on the death, burial, and Resurrection of Christ (1 Corinthians 15:1–4), many have wondered how people who lived prior to the Incarnation of Christ could have been saved. In Hebrews 11, we have a sampling of Old Testament saints whose lives pleased God. These heroes of the faith provide for us, even in these latter days, example after example of how to both live and die in times that are anything but receptive to the God of the Bible.

Thus, saturating all of Scripture, there is a gospel theme that showcases the suffering, Resurrection, and glory of the promised Savior, Jesus Christ. He is the central object of our faith and the fulfillment of all that the faithful who have preceded us down through the ages had believed in.

Jesus spoke of Himself as the only way to heaven in several places besides John 14:6. He presented Himself as the object of faith in Matthew 7:21–27.

He said His words are life (John 6:63). He promised that those who believe in Him will have eternal life (John 3:14–15).

He is the gate of the sheep (John 10:7); the bread of life (John 6:35); and the resurrection (John 11:25). No one else can rightly claim those titles.

Eternal life in heaven is made possible only through Christ. Jesus prayed, “Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent” (John 17:3).

To receive God’s free gift of salvation, we must look to Jesus and Jesus alone. We must trust in Jesus’ death on the cross as our payment for sin and in His resurrection. “This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe” (Romans 3:22).

The grace based relationship between God and man is the foundation of Christianity and the antithesis of religion. Established religion was one of the staunchest opponents of Jesus during His earthly ministry. When God gave His Law to the Israelites, His desire was that they “love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength” (Deuteronomy 6:5; Matthew 22:37).

“Love” speaks of relationship. Obedience to all the other commands had to stem from a love for God. We are able to love Him “because He first loved us” (1 John 4:19).

However, by Jesus’ time, the Jewish leaders had made a religion out of God’s desire to live in a love relationship with them (1 Timothy 1:8; Romans 7:12).

Over the years, they had perverted God’s Law into a works-based religion that alienated people from Him (Matthew 23:13–15; Luke 11:42).

Christianity is not about signing up for a religion. Christianity is about being born into the family of God (John 3:3). It is a relationship. Just as an adopted child has no power to create an adoption, we have no power to join the family of God by our own efforts. We can only accept His invitation to know Him as Father through adoption (Ephesians 1:5; Romans 8:15).

When we join His family through faith in the death and resurrection of Jesus, the Holy Spirit comes to live inside our hearts (1 Corinthians 6:19; Luke 11:13; 2 Corinthians 1:21–22). He then empowers us to live like children of the King. He does not ask us to try to attain holiness by our own strength, as religion does.

He asks that our old self be crucified with Him so that His power can live through us (Galatians 2:20; Romans 6:6). God wants us to know Him, to draw near to Him, to pray to Him, and love Him above everything. That is not religion; that is a relationship.

The first guarantee for success in prayer is that if you will pray in Jesus' Name, you will have what you ask.
Jesus tells us that, "Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you." (John 16:23) This verse tells us that we should address the Father in Jesus' Name.
The Name of Jesus carries authority over all other names! Paul wrote, "God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." (Philippians 2:9-11)
How do you get your circumstances to line up with the Word of God? Of course, if you haven't been living a life that is pleasing to God, your prayers will be hindered because disobedience robs you of your confidence in Him. But even then, Jesus is still the answer. Don't let sin and condemnation keep God from moving in your life, your heart and your circumstances. Confess it and receive your forgiveness according to (1 John 1:9).
The second guarantee for success in prayer is praying according to the will of God.
God's will is His Word. Those who will let the Word engineer their prayers have this confidence: "If we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us: and if we know that he hears us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him." (1 John 5:14-15)
Not only are we to pray, but we are to believe when we pray. (Mark 11:24) says, "What things so ever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them." So throw out all the arguments and believe the Word. Once you have based your prayer on the fact that the answer is already yours, then you have something to which you can apply your faith. Faith is our response to what God has already provided!
Faith in God's Word works the same way. Don't wait until you feel healed to believe it. Believe it before anything you can see ever happens, or it will never happen. Faith makes prayer work; prayer doesn't make faith work.
I urge you, My Muslims Brothers and Sisters, from this day forward, to make prayer the bedrock of your life. Build your marriage, your career, and your ministry on it. If you do, and you pray by the guidelines His Word has given you, you have God's guarantee of success! God Bless You...

“To all who have received him those who believe in his name he has given the right to become God’s children” (John 1:12). This verse clearly explains how to become a child of God. We must receive Jesus by believing in Him. What must we believe about Jesus?

"Not everyone is a child of God; am I?" Ask it to yourself right now, "Not everyone is a child of God. Am I?" The difference it makes to you is this: Jesus said in (John 8:34–36), "Truly, truly, I say to you, every one who commits sin is a slave to sin. The slave does not continue in the house for ever; the son continues for ever. So if the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed."

In other words, if we will not be children, we will be slaves. And the slave does not remain in the house forever. The children do. What is at stake in becoming a child of God is eternal life. So we ask ourselves that question again: "Not everyone is a child of God; am I?" And now add: "Not everyone will have eternal life; will I?"

In Romans 8:16–17, "The Spirit himself bears witness with our Spirit that we are the children of God, and if children, then heirs, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, provided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him."

In other words, if you become a child of God, you become an heir of all that God owns. All that belongs to God is your inheritance. In the resurrection everything that exists will be yours. And God will care for you forever and make you infinitely happy in his presence.

But if you do not become a child of God, then there will be only judgment. There will be no slaves in the age to come, only children. The slaves do not remain in the house forever (John 8:35). They experience what Jesus calls "the resurrection of judgment" (John 5:29), and it will be too late for any adoption proceedings.?

Jesus is the reason for everything given to the people of God in the Old Testament! The entire Old Testament, with all its laws and traditions, is the story of God's preparation of His people for the coming of His Son Jesus Christ. "So the law was put in charge to lead us to Christ that we might be justified by faith." (Galatians 3:24.) "We have been released from the law so that we serve in the new way of the SPIRIT, and not in the old way of the written code." (Romans 7:6).

Therefore, these laws and traditions were no longer necessary after Jesus Christ's death and resurrection. "Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth." (John 4:23-24).

"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!"( 2 Corinthians 5:17).

We fulfill all the requirements of the law by our faith in Jesus Christ. We receive His grace which cleanses us from all unrighteousness and makes us right with God! "Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand." (Romans 5:1-2).

As a result of our relationship with Christ, "We have the mind of Christ." (1 Corinthians 2:16) and the Holy Spirit is in us, "Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God?" (1 Corinthians 6:19).

God did not create man to start a religion. He created man to start a relationship! The entire Bible is about God's desire to have a relationship with man. In the Old Testament, God instructed the Israelites to build a place where He could be with them. "Then have them make a sanctuary for me, and I will dwell among them." (Exodus 25:8).

In the New Testament, God Himself came to live as a man among us. "The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth." (John 1:14).

All those that come to know Jesus Christ are drawn to Him by our Heavenly Father. "No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him" (John 6:44). We are called to have fellowship with Jesus. "God, who has called you into fellowship with his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, is faithful." (1 Corinthians 1:9).

In fact, Jesus is the ONLY way to have fellowship with the Father! "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you really knew me, you would know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him." (John 14:6-7).

I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.(John 8:24).

The Scriptures, both Old Testament and New Testament, reveal a unique parallel between Jehovah God and Jesus Christ as the Savior. There are many witnesses to that revelation in the Bible; in fact, the reliability of the case shall be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses (Deuteronomy 19:15, Matthew 18:16).

In the Old Testament, the truth that only Jehovah is the Savior was declared to Isaiah, Hosea, Moses, and King David (Isaiah 43:11, 45:21-22; Hosea 13:4, Exodus 15:2, Psalm 18:2). In the New Testament, it was declared to Mary (Luke 2:11), Joseph (Matthew 1:21) and the Samaritan woman (John 4:42) as well as by Paul (Philippians 3:20), Peter (Acts 5:31), and John (1 John 4:14) that Jesus Christ is the Savior of the world.

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.( John 6:47).

If God is the one and only Savior and Jesus is the Savior, then Jesus must be God. There is no salvation apart from Jehovah God and Jesus Christ. This demonstrates consistency in the sovereign will of God for the salvation of humanity in all generations (and could also explain that in the ancient times, before Christ appeared, salvation was given to those who believed in Jehovah God.)

Moreover, it is noteworthy that Jesus himself proclaimed that he has the authority to give his life and take it again (John 10:11, 14-15, 17-18), thereby showing his divine power as the Author of Life.

In Leviticus 26 God tells Israel what will happen to them if they break His laws, and go after other gods. He will bring upon them terror, wasting diseases and fever that will destroy their eyes and drain away their lives. They will plant their seed in vain for their enemies will eat the fruit. They will be slain by their enemies. They will flee when no one is pursuing them. They will be so famished that they will eat their own children. Their land will be laid waste and the cities destroyed. They will be scattered among the heathen. The ultimate curse of the law was death. One of the curses of the law was to be hung on a tree.

Galatians 3:13. This verse states that Christ redeemed us, becoming a curse for us. But the question is, what and who did Jesus pay for, and to whom did He pay it?

Christ was paying Satan for his right to control humankind. This theory believes that God ‘tricked’ Satan into accepting Christ’s death in exchange for his power over mankind.

1 Peter 3:18. Anholm wrote a book about the importance of the ‘God-man,’ Jesus. It was important that God do the atoning, Christ was paying God for us.

God loved us, therefore he sent Christ, not to pay for us, but to help us, to lead by example. Christ Himself said He came to ‘seek and to save those who were lost.’ (Luke 19:10).

we see that just as Abraham was justified by faith, so are we. Because of our faith in Christ, we are considered children of Abraham, and due to receive the blessings God promised to Him.

Just as we are not justified by works, but by faith; we are not truly sanctified by religious disciplines, but by our faith in the Holy Spirit’s power at work within us.

Jesus says in John 19:30, “When he had received the drink, Jesus said, “It is finished.” With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.” In (Mark 15:37) we read also, “It is finished.”

He spoke it out loud. He declared it for all to hear. He uttered a loud cry to His Father in heaven for the whole world to know, and for every evil force to have to flee, for Christ’s work on the cross was complete. ''Paid in full''. (That mean the world don,t need to another...)

There’s no doubt that Jesus knew what His last words needed to be here in this life. He knew the power those final words would have for generations still to come. And He had great purpose in them, which still breathe such life and meaning for our lives today.

"It is finished proclaims that all the work the Father had sent him to accomplish (John 4:34; 9:4) was now completed, particularly his work of bearing the penalty for sins. This means there was no more penalty left to be paid for sins, for all Jesus' suffering was 'finished' (see Hebrews 1:3; 9:11-12, 25-28)."

The Bible is clear in reminding us that Jesus had no sin. He had lived a perfect life, He was without blemish, and this is the only way He could fulfill the purpose that God has sent Him to do. Though He was tempted in all things, just as we are, He had lived a holy life. (Hebrews 4:15)

There was no other way for the door to be opened for us to have a relationship with God, but by the forgiveness of our own sin, through Christ’s payment on our behalf.

People sin every day. And that sin costs us greatly. It separates us from God, it sets up a barrier, it leads to further drifting away from what we know to be right, and often leads us to great despair. But the hope that we have now because of Christ’s death on the cross and His ultimate sacrifice on our behalf is this: (He completed the work. He paid the sacrifice in full on our behalf. No other payment is needed). He just asks that we accept His gift of forgiveness and life.

Jesus came to save you. He came to rescue us, a people without true hope, to give us a lasting life and freedom that we can only find through Him. God Bless You.

Christ Came in the Likeness of the Flesh of Sin and God Condemned Sin in the Flesh

1 Tim. 3:16 And confessedly, great is the mystery of godliness: He who was manifested in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen by angels, preached among the nations, believed on in the world, taken up in glory.When Christ died as a man in the flesh on the cross, God condemned sin in the flesh (Romans 8:3).

We so full of appreciation and love for the Lord who didn’t give up on us. Even though Satan injected his evil nature into us and right now all human beings are born in sin and have the indwelling sin in their flesh, God provided a way for us to deal with sin.

God created man in His image and according to His likeness for man to be God’s expression and representation, but when man succumbed to Satan’s enticing and deceit, sin entered into man and caused man to fall short of the glory of God.

Now all men live for themselves and not for God, and by default what comes out of man is just sin, the products of the sinful nature in him. Even though we are saved, have God’s life in our spirit and this life spreads through all the parts of our soul, we still have the indwelling sin in our members, in our flesh.

Man has become flesh, a fallen human being, and there’s nothing in ourselves that can cause us to prevail over the sinful flesh.

Therefore, God Himself became a man – the Word became flesh, and He tabernacled among us, full of grace and reality. Two thousand years ago God put on humanity, and the Son of God came in the likeness of the flesh of sin and concerning sin, but without the sin in the flesh.

Romans 8- There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.... God Bless!

How Can You Meet Jesus Personally, And Also To Have Eternal Life?
If you believe that Jesus is the risen Lord and his word is true, you are ready to meet him personally. You can now open the gift of salvation he died to give you.

These are the biblical facts which make it possible for you to have a personal relationship with God:

God loves you. He created you and wants to have a personal relationship with you now on earth and eternally in heaven (John 3:16; Ephesians 2:4-5).

Sin has separated you from God. The Bible defines "sin" as choosing our will over God's. We have each made this mistake (Romans 3 :23). Our sins have now separated us from our holy God, and he cannot allow us into his perfect heaven. Instead, we are each destined for an eternity separated from God in hell (Revelation 19:19-21).

You cannot repair your broken relationship with God. Many people think we can be good or religious enough to earn God's forgiveness and go to heaven when we die. But the Bible teaches that the only payment for sin is death (Romans 6:23; Ezekiel 18:20). Someone must die for the sins we have committed.

Jesus died to pay the debt owed by your sins. Since Jesus was sinless and owed no debt to God, his death could pay for our sins. He took our place on the cross and suffered the penalty we deserved. His death now makes it possible for a righteous God to forgive our sins and offer us salvation (Romans 5:8; 2 Corinthians 5:21; 1 Peter 2:24).

You must receive the gift he died to give. Now you must choose to trust in what Jesus has done for you rather than trusting in your own efforts to restore your relationship with God. In faith, rely completely on Jesus to make you right with God. Confess your sins and mistakes to God, and choose to live by his word and will. Decide that you will make Jesus the Lord and Master of your life.
