Salvation
is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men
by which we must be saved."
Acts
4:12
Have
you ever wished you could start your life over? Have
you ever wanted to receive a new life so that every thing that was bad or is bad in your
life would go away, and that everything that was good and is good in your life you would
be able to do again?
There
are times in every ones life that are so bad we want to just end it all. And then there are times in our life that things
are so good that we think to ourselves it cant get any better than this. And then, of course theres every day in
between where we just dont think. We
dont think about life, we dont think about death, we just go about our daily
routine hoping that when its all said and done our life would have meant something,
or possibly would have made a difference in this world.
The
fact is that bad times never go away. Life is
filled with both ups and downs, and just as the Bible says is like a vapor, Its here
one minute, gone the next. The best things
that we can accomplish in this life will only one day be a memory. If we want our life to
mean something, if we want our life to make a difference in this world then we need
something in our life that is beyond this world. The
Bible records the words of Jesus when he spoke on this subject. Jesus said, I have come that they might have life, and that
they might have it more abundantly.
When
Jesus the Son of God came to this earth as a mere human, what he
accomplished on this earth can be more than just a memory in our life. It can be the very thing that gives us hope when
life seems hopeless. It can be the very thing that brings meaning to all the good times
that we experience. Jesus came to this earth
to pay the price for the sins of those who live on this earth.
The
Bible says that all have sinned and fallen short
of the glory of God and that the wages, or
price of sin is death. If we
are to live life on this earth more abundantly, and if we are to have eternal life in
heaven with Jesus Christ, then we must realize that we need to live our life here on earth
with Jesus, or we will be separated from him
through out all of eternity. To live every
day of our life, trying to be more like the way Jesus Christ lived, when he was on this
earth; whether it is one of the worst days of our life, whether it is one of the best days
of our life, or whether it is just one of those ordinary routine days.
For
God so loved the world that he gave his one and only son, that whoever believes in him
shall not perish, but have eternal life.
(John
3:16)
