Be in Christ.

"Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new" (2 Corinthians 5:17 KJV). Let us rejoice in the Lord. He has given us a new life, a life filled with goodness and grace. Our Lord Jesus Christ has made a way for the sinner to be free. He was crucified over 2,000 years ago so that we can stand in liberty, proclaiming His Word to all. He walked into this world as a humble man, and He did all that God the Father commanded Him. He didn't come to be exalted. He didn't come to be a superstar, but He came to open the eyes of the blind, to heal the sick, and to proclaim the Good News to those who are in prison or caught up in captivity by the evil one. Jesus bore the cross. He laid himself upon it, knowing it was an altar of freedom, an altar of forgiveness, and an altar to reconcile all back to God the Father in Heaven. There is no other way to Heaven but through Jesus Christ, who is the only way. He has made a way through Calvary and has opened the door to heaven to all those who believe in His name. Therefore if any man is in Christ, he is a new man, one that the Lord is making ready for the day of His great return. "And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation" (vs. 18) give God praise. God bless you. Amen
