Be Redeemed

Are you looking for good things? Do you want the best for you and your family? Do you the best available to you? Do you know eternal redemption is available for everyone? Do you it is because Jesus Christ came to be the perfect Lamb of God, to give Himself up to save the world?

The Israelites lived with a sacrificial system for hundreds of years. Every year they had to provide a perfect sacrifice to have their sins forgiven, both as individuals and as a nation. It was only through the blood of the sacrificial animal that they could be forgiven.

When Jesus came down from heaven to walk this earth as a human, His purpose was to eliminate that sacrificial system. Not only did His sacrifice eliminate the need for the Israelites to sacrifice to be forgiven but His blood covered the sins of the entire world. Through His sacrifice everyone, even those who were not Jewish, could come to God, be redeemed, and eternally saved.

Each one of us can be redeemed and eternally saved. Not because of anything we have done to earn it but because of what Jesus has done. How? We confess our sins, put our faith in Jesus, and accept Him as Lord and Savior. Make no mistake about it, it is a big decision. It is only we should make lightly. It requires us to open our hearts and minds to be changed by God.

Jesus is our High Priest. He is at the right hand of God the Father, continually interceding on our behalf. When we stand in judgment, we will be exonerated, seen through Jesus as being righteous. Though we have not earned it, Jesus has made it available to you. Make the choice to accept the redemption that comes through Jesus today.

Know that Jesus is the perfect Lamb of God. Know that Jesus came to abolish the sacrificial system. Know that Jesus came to be the perfect sacrifice that would save the entire world. Confess your sins before Jesus. Accept Jesus as Lord and Savior. Be redeemed by Jesus.

Hebrews 9:11-12 But when Christ came as a high priest of the good things that have come, then through the greater and perfect tent (not made with hands, that is, not of this creation), he entered once for all into the Holy Place, not with the blood of goats and calves, but with his own blood, thus obtaining eternal redemption.
