Each time I read the Bible, all the way from Genesis to Revelation, one thing that stands out is FELLOWSHIP. I see a God who has always had a desire to fellowship with His people.
That desire has been fulfilled in Christ Jesus.
(A thread!)
Right from Genesis, we see a God who visited His people often, and spoke to them on a regular. Later, they built Him a temple. But He wanted something more than that. He wasn't satisfied with having a temple made by the hands of men,where they came in and went out of His presence
No, He wanted something more than that. He wanted to make us the temple where His presence dwells, so that He can have fellowship with us all day, everyday.
And that's exactly what He did! Jesus Christ has made that a present day reality.
God has never been interested in starting a religion. That was man's idea, and it has failed miserably.
God's plan is to make you like Him by giving you His life, so that you can think, talk, act and live like Him.
He made us like Him so that we can vibe with Him.
Until you have this new life, that only Jesus Christ can give, you can't have a relationship with God
That's why He said, "except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God" (John 3:3).
The good news is, this life is available to everyone. John 1:12 says, "as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe in His name."
John 3:16 says, "for God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son; that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life (God's life)."
The Bible says whoever believes that Jesus died for the sins of all men, and rose again to declare us righteous...
...qualifies for this life. And it is activated by confessing the Lordship of Jesus with your mouth. That means declaring that, from now on, you take Jesus as your Master, and Saviour. This takes you out of Satan's jurisdiction, and brings you into union with God.
You're translated from darkness to light by the confession of His Lordship. If you would like to make Jesus the Lord of your life, kindly say this prayer to receive salvation.
Congratulations!! You can dm me to learn more about this new life you've received. God bless you!
