It Starts Now - Why wait?




The Price for Sin Has Been Paid
Easter Banner
Eternal Life - It Starts Now
Hallelujah! The price for sin, ALL sin, has been paid! 
 But do you truly understand what that means for you? God knows the end from the beginning, and He knew all the sins of the whole world. Jesus paid for all those committed before His sacrifice and for all that had not yet been committed.
 He made the payment once, and it will never be made again. We have received an eternal inheritance (Heb. 9:15) that cannot be taken away.
 That means you cannot lose your inheritance because of sin! This may seem strange to you...but read on.

To understand this, you have to see yourself as God sees you. 
 In your born-again spirit, you are as clean, holy, and pure as Jesus is. Religion has you looking at your flesh. It has you searching the soulish realm of thoughts, attitudes, and feelings. 
But that is not what God is looking at. He is looking at your spirit, the part of you that's become a new creation.

Second Corinthians 5:17 says, "Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new."

What part of you is new?
 It's not the flesh and it's not the soul; it's your born-again spirit.  
Does that mean sin is okay? 
 Absolutely not! When you sin, you give Satan an open door to your soul, your mind and emotions, as well as an opportunity to destroy your physical body.
 But your spirit is sinless! Your soul and your body can be defiled by sin, but your spirit never can. It's sealed forever!

Being spiritually mature isn't about trying to grow your spirit up; it's about trying to educate, or renew, your mind to what you already have in your spirit.
 Your spirit is already perfect! 
You already have the fruit of the Spirit--love, joy, peace, long-suffering, and the rest.

So, what does this mean for you? 
God loves you even though you aren't perfect. 
 He loves you, not because of your performance, but because of Jesus' sacrifice. When you start to understand how this affects your Christian life, it will change your relationship with your heavenly Father forever.

Don't wait another moment to start living the life God intended for you.
