A Gift
by: Pastor David Wood

Romans 1:20 NIV
20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities-his eternal power and divine nature-have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.

Romans 3:21-24 NIV
21 But now apart from the law the righteousness of God has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. 22 This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference between Jew and Gentile, 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.

The evidence of God is overwhelming to me. The things that people do believe and why, while rejecting God’s word, just blow me away.

No matter where I look, I see God’s handiwork. In all the good things that is. And in the bad things that happen, I see the devil’s handiwork. God has made all these wonderful things for us and Satan has been trying to kill, steal and destroy anything and everything, any way he can. From Adam and Eve, right up to the very latest truth that his deception has twisted.
The second set of verses is the ultimate fix for when sin was brought into God’s perfect world. The fix was paid in full for our salvation at the cost of the suffering and blood sacrifice of Jesus, our Lord and Redeemer.

The bad news is all of us have sinned. None of us, on our own, make it to heaven. The good news is, Jesus did everything needed for our salvation. Our job, accept it and serve Him.

Carry On,
