So just how far off base would you say that I am if I told you we were ransomed from death?? "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" Romans 6:23. "Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me" Psalms 51:5. And of course, "For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God" Romans 3:23. By right, I should be hellbound, but my Lord and Savior loved me so much that He laid down His life so I could be with Him in eternaty. I just saw that movie The Passion. Because of it, I now have a stronger desire to "Love thy enemies". Jesus went through all that suffering partly on my behalf, almost two thousand years before I was born. Had it not been for that suffering, I would be eternally lost. What is holding us hostage? Personal Desire. According to Gal. 5:16-17, without the Spirit of God, we would not have the desire to "Walk in the Spirit", but fulfil the "lust of the flesh". And according to Romans 8:5-8, those who are after the flesh, can not please God. I believe Personal Desire is holding us hostage to death, and that Jesus made a "way of escape" by giving His life as a ransom. The CurtMan |
