"For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the sinful nature, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful man to be a sin offering." Romans 8:3

Many of you may be wondering what this passage of Scripture means. If so, allow me to enlighten you.
The 'law' is rules we must obey in order to live a righteous life in the sight of God. But there's one problem. No one on earth, not one single human being has been able to keep God's perfect law. We all stumble in some area or another. So that means we are sinners and worthy of death. God, however, made a provision. He (Jesus) decided to enter the world in order to solve this problem. He took on the form of a servant (Philippians 2:7). He was born in our flesh, He took on our very nature and lived the perfect life that we could never live and pleased the Father. And then He died an excruciating death on a Roman cross for our sake. At that moment God laid on Jesus His Son every sin every human being has ever committed and ever will commit. For every mistake we have ever made or will even make, He paid the ultimate price. Knowing that,will you turn away from and reject the One who loves you so much that He would give up His life for you? His life was poured out for you and His blood, that day at Calvary. He became a sin offering that pleased God for you. If you will only accept His free gift of salvation you will enter into an everlasting communion with the everlasting and eternal God. Jesus died to save you. Will you run to Him?

 God bless. x
