One Sacrificed To Save The World

The condition of our soul before we received Christ into our hearts.

Like the blind we grope along the wall, feeling our way like men without eyes.
At midday we stumble as if it were twilight; among the strong we are like the dead.
We all growl like bears; we mourn mournfully like doves.
We look for justice, but find none; for deliverance, but it is far away.
(Isaiah 59:10-11)

We need not lose hope! God has rescued us from darkness by bringing us
into the light of His Son Jesus Christ.

What do you think? If a man owns a hundred sheep, and one of them wanders
away, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the hills and go to look for the one
that wandered off? And if he finds it, I tell you the truth, he is happier about that 
one sheep than about the ninety-nine that did not wander off.
In the same way your Father in heaven is not willing that any of these little ones 
should be lost. (Mathew 18:12-14)


God is looking out for you. He paid the price for you at Calvary. Jesus stepped down from
heaven to give you eternal life. He was thinking about you when he suffered and died
at the hands of His persecutors.
Jesus fulfilled His mission on earth to give you life and a future.
Jesus said, "It is finished."  (John 19:30)

All you have to do is look at the Cross!!!
Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the desert, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, 
that everyone who believes in Him may have eternal life. 
(John 3:14-15, Numbers 21:8-9)

BLESSED IS HE WHO COMES IN THE NAME OF THE LORD
Those who have learned to acclaim you, who walk in the light of your presence, O Lord.
                                               
                                                           (Psalms 118:26,89:15)

                                                           
                                                            (I do not own this picture)

Charles Spurgeon first found Christ during the preaching of this Scripture,
"Look to me and be saved." (Isaiah 45:22)
