About
I AM AN 80 YEAR OLD MALE, BORN AGAIN, CHRISTIAN WITH A LOVE FOR JESUS. I DO NOT GET OUT MUCH ANYMORE BUT FIND THAT TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT THE LOVE JESUS HAS FOR THEM IS NOT ONLY WHAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO BUT SOMETHING THAT THE WORLD NEEDS.

"WE ARE RECONCILED TO GOD" BY DAVID MCMILLEN
WE ARE RECONCILED TO GOD
IN READING THE CHRISTMAS STORY IN LUKE 2, VERSES 13-14 SAY "And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men."
A LOT OF PEOPLE BELIEVE THAT JESUS BROUGHT PEACE BETWEEN MEN ON EARTH BUT THAT WAS NOT THE CASE. JESUS BROUGHT PEACE BETWEEN GOD AND MAN, NOT PEACE AMONG MEN. JESUS SAID, HIMSELF IN MATTHEW 10:34, "Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword." THIS MADE IT POSSIBLE FOR US TO GO STRAIGHT TO GOD WITH OUR PROBLEMS. BEFORE THIS TIME, BECAUSE OF OUR SINS, WE COULD NOT GO DIRECTLY TO GOD.
GOD IS NOT MAD AT US. HE PUT ALL HIS WRATH ON JESUS AND HE IS NOT EVEN IMPUTING OUR SINS UNTO US. JESUS PAID FOR ALL SIN PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE. IN 2ND CORINTHIANS
5:17-21 IT SAYS "Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God. For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. YOU MIGHT NOT FEEL RIGHTEOUS BUT GOD SAYS YOU ARE. THIS IS THE WAY HE SEES YOU. FELLOWSHIP WITH HIM DAILY....HE IS WAITING.
GOD BLESS YOU.
