For I handed on to you
as of first importance
what I in turn had received:
that Christ died for our sins
in accordance with the scriptures
1 Corinthians 15:3
What is the first most important thing in life?
It’s not bread or water. It’s not shelter or breath. It’s God’s love.
Jesus Christ died for our sins.
No. Make that personal. Jesus died for YOUR sins.
No matter what you’ve done. No matter what you’ve left undone. No matter if you can’t forgive yourself for it, Jesus can. He loves you. YOU. Personally.
If Jesus could forgive the people who literally nailed him to the cross – “Father, forgive them for they know not what they do” – he can and will forgive you. Indeed, if you were the only person who ever sinned. He would have died just for you. YOU!
Today, at the beginning of Holy Week, confess your sins and trust in the full, total, and glorious forgiveness.
In Christ’s Love,
a former slave (to sin)
who’s now and forever free!
