There Is A Redeemer - Jesus Christ

By

"As for our Redeemer, the Lord of hosts is His name, The Holy One of Israel."
Isaiah 47:4 (NKJV)

The death of Jesus Christ on the Cross defies logic, not by avoiding it but by triumphing over it. What He did on the Cross doesn't make sense to us. How can a judge die on behalf of the convict? For that matter, how can He against whom we have sinned, take upon Himself our sins, pay the hefty price we needed to pay, acquit us and then justify us solely on the basis of our placing our trust and faith in Him? And this justification happens when we believe and completely trust that what Jesus did is our only hope out if this hopeless life experience.

Christ's death on the Cross was an act of absolute justice and the wrath of God's judgement was satisfied. Satisfied. Selah. Satisfied. When He was lifted up, all judgement we deserved was thrust upon Him, and all of heaven turned aside for another glimpse of Him, heaven could not bear - our stinking, messy and abhorrent sins hanged on Him. He willingly took it all upon Himself. Mercy in action. He took upon Himself what we rightfully deserved.

And what is our response? How have you responded to this gift of God's love to humanity? How have you treated the sacrifice of Jesus? Have you treated it as a common practice? Have you treated it with mockery and despise? Or have you loved and embraced the Cross? Christ's work on the Cross is complete. It is a finished work. Redemption was completed. He left nothing unpaid. He paid it all till the last penny. Receive this great and extraordinary love of Jesus, heaven's greatest gift to you. Love and embrace the Cross.

Further Scripture Reading:

"For I know that my Redeemer lives, And He shall stand at last on the earth;"
Job 19:25 NKJV 

19 Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own?
20 For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s.
1 Corinthians 6:19,20 NKJV

JESUS AND NICODEMUS

By
Now there was a certain man among the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler (a leader, an authority) among the Jews, Who came to Jesus at night and said to Him, Rabbi, we know and are certain that You have come from God [as] a Teacher; for no one can do these signs (these wonderworks, these miracles - and produce the proofs) that You do unless God is with him. Nicodemus said to Him, How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter his mother's womb again and be born? Jesus answered, I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, unless a man (this includes you Flame) is born of watter and [even] the Spirit, he cannot [ever] enter the kingdom of God. Whatever is born of [from] the flesh is flesh [of the physical is physical]; and what is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not [do not be surprised, astonished] at My (Jesus) telling you, You (including you Flame) must all be born anew (from above). The wind blows (breathes) where it wills; and though you hear its sound, yet you neithe
