Jesus cried and said, He that believeth on Me, believeth not on Me, but on Him that sent Me. And he that seeth Me seeth Him that sent Me. I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on Me should not abide in darkness. And if any man hear My Words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world. He that rejecteth Me, and receiveth not My Words, hath one that judgeth him: the Word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day. For I have not spoken of Myself; but the Father which sent Me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak. And I know that His commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto Me, so I speak. (Joh 12:44-50)
Jesus Christ, the Son of GOD who is GOD the Son, is one with the Father, and did everything the Father asked Him to do. He said what the Father sent Him to say, and His Word is Law, for He is the Lawgiver. He came not to judge, for all have been judged for their sin already, for their deeds are evil, but to give His life as a ransom for many, to those who believe and trust in Him and His finished and perfect work on the Cross of Calvary.
Those who do not repent and put their trust in Him for forgiveness and Salvation, being already condemned as a sinner and under the death penalty, will face Jesus Christ and His Word as their judge. Since all sinners not forgiven and cleansed by the blood of Jesus Christ are under condemnation, they are born into sin and not receiving Him by faith is rejecting Him and His great Salvation.
But, we have Good News. His sacrificial offering of Himself in our place gives us new life, if we surrender to Him on His terms and trust what He has already done to pay our sin debt, we will be born again and receive new life in Him, not to continue in sIn, but to do His will and His work until He takes us Home to be with Him. That is the Gospel, that Jesus Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that He was buried and was raised again on the third day according to the Scriptures.
We who know Him are called to be His ambassadors and represent Him as we minister to others. We who are baptized into Christ and have put on Christ are commanded to love one another and grow in His Word. We who are one in the body of Christ, and members in particular, are commissioned to take the Gospel to every creature, and proclaim the Good News that those who repent and believe may receive eternal 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,
