GOD GAVE US A GIFT

God gave us Jesus as a gift
By Jeremy Burkes

For God so loved the world, That he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believith in him should not perish but have everlasting life.For God sent not his son into the world to condemn the world;but that the world through him might be saved.John 3:16-17.

After the events in the Garden of Eden sin entered the world. God loved us so much that He sent Jesus to die for our sin. Jesus was not sent into this world to judge it. Jesus came to this world to do one thing. To offer a better way of life. Through out his ministry He had one goal. He repeated it over and over. He said I am come to do the will of my Father. He came to this world to save us from our sin. That is what the cross was all about. On the cross He paid for our sin. When we find ourselves lost in our sin we need to remember the one place where our sin was paid for. Sometimes we need to go back to the cross. Remember, Jesus was God's gift to us. The cross was Jesus' gift to us.
