--JESUS, THE BRIDGE SPANNING THE GREAT DIVIDE~
“And that He might reconcile both unto God in one body by the Cross, having slain the enmity thereby.” ---- (Ephesians 2:16)
Up in heaven is the holy God. Down below is the sinful man. And sin is the dividing rod that separates.Without God, man has an empty void in his life he knows he must fill, so man is constantly trying to reach God. But he keeps rebounding off the sin barrier. Then God, moved in mercy by the pitiful plight of sinful man, said, “I will do something.” God sent His Son, the Lord Jesus, to make a way. And upon the rough-hewn timbers of a Cross, Jesus gave His life so you and I could live forever and live forgiven. Jesus built a bridge between man and God. It’s a bridge man could never build. And a bridge that man can never take away.
God made a way that we couldn’t make . . . for me . . . and for you. --- Since Jesus built a bridge of love for you to be reconciled to God, it’s your turn to build a bridge of love to someone who is lost and searching.~*--Adrian Rogers~~*
[**Have you ever thought that the person you visit, or communicate with on a daily basis may not even know how to 'choose between spending eternity in Heaven or Hell'? There are millions of people lost. They are not saved by grace. In order to go to Heaven, Jesus gives us a 'free gift', but to receive this gift, we must take it. Otherwise, it just sits there. So reach out and help save a soul for Jesus Christ. Jesus said, "I am the way the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." --(John 14:6). He leaves that 'choice' up to each individual. It's not a matter if you've been born into a Christian family. Nor if you even go to Church on Sunday. You must deliberately ask Jesus to come into your heart, forgive you of all your sins, and help you to live for Him. He never turns away a sincere seeker. Please, do not let another day go by without becoming a child of the Lord Jesus Christ. He loves you with an everlasting love. That is precisely why He willingly died on that Cross. He died to save sinners from going to Hell. The Lord Jesus does not force himself on anyone. He leaves that decision to you.~ -------- --"That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. --"For with the heart man believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. --"For the scripture saith, 'WHOSOEVER BELIEVES ON HIM SHALL NOT BE ASHAMED."[ROMANS 10:9-11]~~ ~~~~~~/ 'LEAD ME TO THE CROSS' / Francesca Battistelli /< https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hlh6_5znn7U> -------
Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." [John 14:6]
