We need forgiveness for our past


IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: WE NEED FORGIVENESS FOR OUR PAST.

As we look over our past we all can see one sin after another along the way. If nothing is done about our sin, we would forever be separated from the presence of God and would be thrown into an eternal hell.

Sin is like a great rock tied around our neck, pulling us down into the depth of the sea. Only Christ can cut the rope that is cause us to drown; only Christ can rescue us from destruction and death. Sin is like a cloud between us and God. Only Christ can melt that cloud and enable us to see the face of God.

Jesus was in Capernaum, preaching in a certain house, when four men went out and brought a sick man and placed him before Jesus.

Jesus said to the sick man....."Thy sins are forgiven thee" Mark2:5. The crowd began to murmur and someone said, "That Blasphemy, only God can do that, only God can forgive sin. But Jesus was God in the Flesh and the power to forgive sin was invested in Him. To prove this point He healed the man and sent him on his way.

The church cannot forgive sin! The Priest cannot forgive sin! The preacher cannot forgive sin. Only God can forgive sin and Jesus was God in the Flesh.

John tells us that only the Blood of Jesus Christ, the Son of the Living God can cleanse us from all sin. 1 John 1:7. And because of that cleansing we are able to reign with God and Jesus in Heaven. Jesus’s Blood was sufficient enough for us. Jesus is all that we need.

LET US PRAY
May God cleans all ugly past that is causing problem for your present life in Jesus Name
