Christs reason for coming
Jesus said,
"The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
"I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. John 10:10,12.
Here put simply Jesus gives his reason for coming to this world. To lay his life down for his sheep.
The apostle Paul writes,
"for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. Romans 3:23,24.
Sin is falling short of God’s ideal for us. Sin separates us from God.
God knew that we could not live a life good enough to be with Him that is why he sent Jesus,
Paul stating
“But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:8.
The apostle John stating,
"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness."1John 1:9.
Do you believe this?
Please think about it.
