“But God
commendeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died
for us.” (Romans 5:8)
A church
had called a new pastor. Grandma felt bad and was not able to attend the
service and to hear the new pastor’s first sermon. When the family came
home and were seated around the lunch table she asked, “What did the new
preacher preach about?” Someone said, “He preached about sin.” Grandma asked,
“What did he say about sin?” The reply was, “Oh, he was against it.”
We
preachers and all other sinners had better be opposed to sin, but just opposing
it will not change people’s lives and get them to heaven. Sinners need a
Savior. The Savior sinners must have is the perfect Son of God, the Lord Jesus
Christ, who loved us and gave Himself for us, dying on the cross of Calvary to pay our sin debt. But our Savior is no longer
dead. He stayed in the tomb three days and arose. Today He is seated at
the right hand of God where He ever lives to make intercession for us.
The Bible says, “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be
saved.” (Acts 16:31)
