The Ultimate Price Has Been Paid

The Bible tells us in Hebrews 9:22 that without the shedding of blood there would be no remission of sin. Jesus shed his blood so that you and I could have eternal life. Eternal life is free to anyone who will receive Jesus as their savior. But Eternal Life came at a great cost; Jesus had to shed his blood upon Calvary’s cross so that we could have forgiveness for our sins and eternal life.

God’s plan of redemption for man was put into motion long before God created Adam. God seen the fall of Adam and knew that mankind would need a savior. Jesus became the supreme sacrifice for everyone. Why did God do this and why would Jesus give his life for us? One simple word, LOVE! St. John 3:16 gives the reason, For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son. This is the embodiment of love. A love so pure and strong that God gave his son and Jesus gave his life. No greater love has a man than to lay down his life for a friend.

Jesus’ sacrifice goes beyond our comprehension of love. Think about his trail and death upon the cross. Death by crucifixion is the most horrible means that anyone could face. One would die of exposure, inflammation, dehydration, and suffer great pain. Jesus was scourged which entailed being beaten with a whip 39 times that literally took the flesh off the body with each swing. Jesus was spit upon, humiliated, slapped, beaten, and had a crown of thorns placed upon his head. Then Jesus had to attempt to carry a cross 600 yards to Golgotha’s Hill. This sacrifice was all for you and I. He who knew no sin bore the sins of the world.

Have you accepted Jesus as your savior? Are you born again? You must be born again to make it to heaven. The Bible says in St. John 3:3 you must be born again. Being a good person will not get you to heaven, you must be born again. How do you become born again? It is as simple as ABC. A acknowledge you are a sinner and you needs Jesus as your savior. B is for believe, believe that Jesus is the Son of God that came and died for you sins. And C is for confession of your sins. Tell Jesus you are sorrow for you sins and he will forgive them. Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.  Make the decision today, don’t wait too late. The Bible says that today is the day of Salvation.  Many put off the decision to a later date in life, a more convenient time. Let me ask you this question, how do you know how much time you have left? No one knows; that is why today is the day of salvation. Choose Jesus today.
