For Christ is the end of the Law for righteousness to every one that believeth. For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the Law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them. But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:) Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.) But what saith it? The Word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the Word of faith, which we preach; 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. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. (Rom 10:4-10)
Salvation by grace through faith, and that not of ourselves it is the gift of GOD. Repentance of our sIn, that cost our Holy and Righteous GOD everything to pay our sIn debt, for forgiveness. Trust in Jesus Christ and His finished and perfect work on the Cross of Calvary for reconciliation. That is our message, that is our hope, that is our Gospel, the Good News of redemption and being made right with our Creator GOD, who loved us so much He came as a man, and lived a sinless life that we might have life in Him, and have it more abundantly.
For those who are His, that have received Him by faith and are born again from above, He has work for us to do in this world. We are to remain unspotted from this world, not by works of righteousness that we do, nor by the works of the Law which cannot save us or keep us, but in Him, resting in the Spirit and the Liberty that He gives, and not ourselves. That is not a license to sIn, that grace may abound, but liberty to live in and through Christ and He in us to do His will as He accomplishes His work in us, to conform us to the image of His dear Son, until He takes us Home to be with Him.
Until that day, as His ambassadors and ministers of reconciliation, we are to do His work and will here. We are to minister to the hurting and in need, that they might see Jesus in us, the Hope of Glory. We are to grow in grace and the knowledge of Him, through discipleship in His Word, and love one another, so that all may know we are His disciples. We are to proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ to all who will hear, and as we go, teach them all things whatsoever He has commanded, that they may believe the Gospel and 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 He will give you a brand new life of discipleship and fellowship with Him that is abundant and everlasting. GOD calls you to trust Him and what He has already done for you to pay your sIn debt. He has provided the only way of reconciliation with GOD with forgiveness and Salvation through Jesus Christ, the Son of GOD who is GOD the Son, to give you a new life in Christ. Turn away from yourself and your sIn and turn to Him alone for eternal Life, now and always.
In Christ,
