He Paid The Price

Sorry, I'm just getting back to my blog. When I look at all God has done for me in my life, I find myself very lacking in sharing how amazing his grace truly is. The price our Lord paid to make it possible for us to spend eternity in heaven with him is was unbelievable. All that God has asked in return is that we believe and accept his son as our Lord and Savior. Is life easy with the Lord, no, but we are never alone and he gives a peace that cannot be defined. Why would we expect God to spare our lives of any heartache, when he would not spare his on son, death on the cross. Go with me as I share, He Paid The Price. He paid that price for you and for me. Loving him should be easy.


                                                         He Paid The Price


     We often forget that God is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow. He never changes.Take the time to study and build a personal relationship with the Lord. He will reveal his love and amazing grace in our lives, if we will allow him to. You will find peace in times of trouble, calm and assurance in times of fear. Blessings on top of blessings, instead of loneliness and despair.
    Sin came into this world because of disobedience. That was the beginning of the problems we have today. Sin called for the punishment of death, to pay the debt that was owed. Because we have a Holy God, a Holy sacrifice was required to pay that debt for each one of us. God's love provided the full payment, with his own sacrifice.
     The Lord Jesus Christ, our Savior, was the sacrifice that God required. God became man, born of a virgin, a perfect man, in whom no sin was found. He surrendered his heavenly life to become a man, to face every temptation and heartache that we each go through. Gave up all that he was and allowed the leading of the Holy Spirit, directed by the will of his Heavenly Father, to lead in everything he did. When Jesus time on earth was complete, our Lord was arrested in our place, beaten and whipped for each of us.Every stripe from the whip carried a healing for Gods children. On the cruel wooded cross our Savior suffered and died for every sin committed or that will be committed. The greatest gift of Gods amazing grace, Christ rose from the grave, resurrected from death, winning the victory for you and me. God accepted the work of the cross of His only begotten son, as payment in full for what man had done.  Jesus, He Paid The Price, to purchase you and me.

     I Corinthians 6:19-20  KJV
     What? Know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God"s.
