Bring us to God

"For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit" (1 Peter 3:18 KJV). The love God has for us is so incredible that He would die for us to see us set free. This freedom that we received from Jesus Christ comes through faith in Him. The sinner must have faith in Christ, who carried their sins to the cross and nailed them to it. Through faith, redemption comes to that sinner through the Blood of Jesus. It is important that we stand in faith, put our whole heart into the Word of God, and allow the Spirit of God to transform us. Once we recognize that we are not our own but have been bought by the Blood of Christ Jesus, then the Holy Spirit is able to do a greater work, a work that He can only do for the believer. That work is to make an unholy man or woman into a holy man or woman, one who is filled with God, His love, and His goodness. "Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in His blood, to declare His righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God" (Romans 3:24, 25 KJV). We are justified freely, not by our works but by Jesus Christ. Glory to God! Victory is found in the Blood of Christ and the Cross of Calvary. Jesus is the Door and the Only Way. God bless you. Amen
