GOOD NEWS FOR ALL

For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost. Luke 19:10 Who is the lost? The lost is the person whose heart is far from the Lord. The lost is the person who walks in darkness, that is, a person with a reprobate mind. A mind that is full of evil, envy, hatred, and anger. The lost person denies the existence of God and wants nothing to do with Him. They do abominable things. The wrath of God awaits such people but He does not want any to suffer eternal condemnation so He has offered His only begotten son as a ransom for our sins. Because of His love for us, He sent His only begotten son to die on the cross for the lost so that we can be redeemed from the punishment or death that awaits us. "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son that whosoever believeth on Him should not perish but have everlasting life." (John 3: 16) The main purpose of Christ coming into this world was to save the lost from their our iniquities. He came to seek,that means, to actively look out for the lost. He offers us the oliver branch and it is out duty to receive it willingly. From Luke 19:1-9, we read about Zacheaus, the chief tax collector, who used all his might and strategies in order to see Jesus. Because he was short, He had to go ahead of the crowd to climb the sycamore tree to see Him. But, Jesus, the all-knowing Son of God, saw him ahead of time and asked him to come down. Jesus sought him out first and assured him that salvation had come to him and his household. Today, the Lord is seeking out for you. No matter the magnitude of your sins, He is faithful and just to forgive you of all your unrighteousness if you confess them to Him. He is ready to cleanse you and to make you as white as snow. Call on the Lord today and deliverance will come to you and your household. Jesus can to save you and I. Don't let this opportunity by pass you today. Accept Him as Lord and master of your life. He who have the Son has life but he would does not have the Son does not have life but the wrath of God awaits such people. Everlasting life awaits those in Christ.
