and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created. And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, after his image; and called his name Seth: And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years: and he begat sons and daughters: And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died. (Gen 5:1b-5)In the day that GOD created man, in the likeness of GOD made He him; Male and female created He them;
But Jesus came to deliver mankind from their sIn and its penalty. For those that have placed their trust in Him, His Word, and His finished and perfect work on the Cross of Calvary for forgiveness, He has given us Salvation and eternal life. We have the hope and promise that because of Him and what He has already done for us we will live with Him forever, even though this body dies, and He lives with us and in us now.
His presence gives us power over sIn and its temptation and gives us victory in this world. We are commanded to tell everyone of His mercy ang grace, and the power of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. As we go, we are to minister to the hurting, disciple one another in love and the Word, and proclaim the Good News of Salvation to all we meet that they might believe and believing have life in His Name.
For GOD is not willing that any should perish, but that all would come to repentance and the knowledge of the Truth. Jesus loves you and wants to establish a covenant relationship with you that is real and personal. Surrender to Him on His terms and receive Him by faith and He will give you a brand new life of discipleship and fellowship with Him that is abundant and everlasting. Though Adam brought sIn and death, the second Adam, Jesus Christ, the Son of GOD who is GOD the Son, offers you forgiveness and eternal life. Trust Him for Salvation today.
In Christ,
