You must love the LORD your God with your whole mind, your whole being, and all your strength. These words I am commanding you today must be kept in mind, and you must teach them to your children and speak of them as you sit in your house, as you walk along the road, as you lie down, and as you get up. You should tie them as a reminder on your forearm and fasten them as symbols on your forehead. Inscribe them on the door frames of your houses and gates. Deuteronomy 6:5-9 NET
Jesus paid for our guilt and bore our shame. He carried it all to the cross. But there He left it! Hallelujah! Death has lost it’s grip! He is everlasting LIFE. Because the God of all offers each of us the greatest gift: SALVATION.
Jesus’ death, burial, and resurrection were more than enough for you—for all of us. When He emerged from that tomb, He was no longer clothed in the sin and shame of this world. Sin and its shame were left entombed. Conquered. Vanquished. Paid for. Redeemed by His blood sacrifice. It is finished.
Through the blood of Christ, the penalty was paid for all of our sin, and provision was made for our weaknesses.
He not only took our sin upon Himself, He gave us His righteousness in exchange, and with it, He gave us the power to overcome sin and replace it with the purpose of seeking the lost for the very saving of lives.
