For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world;

but that the world through Him might be saved. John 3:17

 

 

      The world didn’t need condemning. It was already condemned. The world needed a Savior. Jesus was the Man of the hour. He did condemn rebuke but that was not His primary objective. He came to save the lost.

      No one else could do that. The old way of sacrifices in the tabernacle would no longer suffice to make amends with God. God decided it was time for one final sacrifice: His only begotten Son. In this way man could not be at fault for insufficient sacrifice or take pride in bringing the best sacrifice. It put us all on an even plain. We simply must have simple faith. We do not have degrees of faith when it comes to believing Who Christ is. We either believe or we don’t.

       Through: when used as a preposition it can mean by way of. As an adverb it can mean from beginning to end. As an adjective it can mean permitting free passage. Not only was Jesus the Man of the hour, He was all parts of speech of the English language. We know He called Himself the Way to the Father. We know He is the Alpha and Omega. We know He came and gave His Life willingly as a final sacrifice for our sins. His gift of Salvation gives us free passage to Heaven.

       I have found the path that leads to Heaven where I will worship The One Who always was and always will be and my bill for my entry and stay will be marked ‘Paid in Full’ all because of Jesus. Through Him we have all we need and all we ever will need.
