He did for us! 2 of 9
From Face Book post by - Tricia Annette
How many of your sins did Jesus die for?
How many had you committed when He died?
Answers...
He died for ALL of my sins and at the time He died I had not been born..
but He still died for all my sins, the ones before I came to know Him and the ones since I came to know Him...
they are all covered by His blood!
Yes, I confess my sins to my Father daily and come into agreement that I messed up and accept His cleansing from that.
No Grace is not a license to keep on sinning, but it is God's grace given to us for when we do mess up. Christians who struggle with homosexual lives are no less loved by God than the man who can't control how much he drinks, or eats, or his temper...
sin is sin..
God's GRACE is big enough for all of us! The reason so many run from the church is this fear of judgment!
Jesus caught the woman in adultery and didn't judge and didn't let those there judge her...he forgave her and told her to go and sin no more...
Now does that mean if a homosexual goes to Christ - that the moment you come to Christ all those desires are going to be gone? No it means that once you know the truth in your heart - why would you continue to sin?
What if you just stumbled upon an evangelism event and simply heard that Jesus loves you, just as you are and He wants to forgive you and set you free...you accept that, but have no clue that what you are doing is wrong... does that mean you can't truly be a Christian until you change?
The power to change comes from God and God alone...we don't clean up and come to Him, we come to Him just as we are and then let Him convict and change us.
He did for us what we could never do for ourselves!
