Salvation

Salvation is deliverance from the power and effects of sin. I like to think of it as a bridge between us and God the Father. The sacrifice of JESUS CHRIST represents the bridge, because without Him we cannot come to the kind-hearted Father (John 14:6).

Do you want to cross that bridge by accepting JESUS CHRIST into your heart and life as your personal Savior? He not only saves us from the powers of hell, but He restores us, heals, comforts us. He died on the cross and rose from the dead three days later. He lives today and prays for us as He makes us ready to meet Him in heaven (Romans 8:34).

Even if we already have accepted Jesus into our lives and He lives within us, we should never forget that bridge, that we have crossed over from death to life (John 5:24). This life comes not from ourselves: For as the Father has life in Himself, so He has granted the Son to have life in Himself (John 5:26). It ALL comes from HIM.

Let's thank our Heavenly Father and His Only Son today for His salvation. It is the most marvelous plan for the human race. Embrace it today if you haven't already.
