I have determined to write a devotional thought every day this year, and here I am on April 23rd with seemingly nothing to report. So it must be that I'll have a brainstorm in just a few minutes.
Let's see. Ah yes! In our Bible study with Cida today, we talked about salvation. How that God planned it before time began. Ephesians 1:4 tells us a smidgen about that plan. We also talked about how, if we look at the world around us, we can see that there are seemingly nothing but sinners in every level of society and every country of the world. We know that this is the case because of what Romans 3:10 and 3:23 tell us. There is none righteous, not even one.
We saw that sin had affected human life more than covid or any other flu in history. It has a 100 percent kill rate. No-one escapes. All die. Genesis 5 tells the story of Adam's breaking race. Eight times in that chapter, the little phrase "and he died" shouts total extinction.
However, there is hope in Christ. Jesus was sent as the Lamb of God to pay the sin price. He laid down his life to pay your penalty. His righteousness is ready to be deposited into your bankrupt account if you want his grace.
How could I not write about that?
