Subject: how can i know Jesus died for me ? |
Bible Note: Hi. I understand you asking for proof. Even the disciples that had followed Jesus so willingly really got afraid and became disbelieving after he died. It wasn't until he "appeared" to them after His resurrection that they finally realized He had truly risen from the dead like He said He would. Once He ascended (rose) to the Father, 40 days after He had been with them in His resurrected form, they stood gazing into heaven and the angel said "This same Jesus will come back in the same way He left" (In book of Acts). They tarried in Jerusalem and on the Day of Pentecost (about 10 days later), they received the PROMISED HOLY SPIRIT - now Jesus would live INSIDE of them, work THROUGH them... and the One they once needed PROOF to believe in, NOW they were willing to DIE for...He had risen...He is alive today at the right hand of the Father. He has taken the penalty for our sins upon Himself. If we place our faith in Him as the One and Only sacrifice for sin - if we believe in Him - we will receive the Holy Spirit also and become the children of God. Our eyes are then opened to the Scriptures and we understand them! I pray if you have not received this TRUTH, you will today. Jesus said in John 14:6 "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father but through Me." RECEIVE Him today. If you have prayed this, BELIEVE that He is faithful to His Word. God bless you.
