When I Survey the Wondrous Cross |

But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world. Galatians 6:14
But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord. Philippians 3:7-8a
When I survey the wondrous cross Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast, See, from His head, His hands, His feet, Were the whole realm of nature mine, |
I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. Romans 12:1
§
Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
But made Himself of no reputation, and took upon Him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
And being found in fashion as a man, He humbled Himself, and became obedient unto
death, even the death of the cross.
Wherefore God also hath highly exalted Him, and given Him a name which is above every name:
That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things
in earth, and things under the earth:
And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the
Father. Philippians 2:5-11
Of this incomparable One it is said that "in the beginning was
the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the
beginning with God"; yet such an One, who thus occupied the highest place
of Deity in company with the Father and the Spirit, "was made flesh, and
dwelt among us." |

§
Herein Is Love |
---|
Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us, and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. 1 John 4:10 For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16 Please take a moment to consider the love of God which is manifested in the person of His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. God sent His Son into the world to be your Saviour from sin. God gave His Son to die upon the Cross and to shed His blood that you need not perish. God offers you forgiveness of sins and everlasting life through His Son. "Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures ... He was buried and ... He rose again the third day according to the scriptures." (1 Corinthians 15:3-4) The resurrection of Christ is proof that God is fully satisfied with the work His Son has done, and now He can "be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus." (Romans 3:26) Herein is love! But many choose not to receive God's love, and reject His gift of everlasting life through faith in Jesus Christ. Yet apart from the life which God offers you in His Son, you are dead in trespasses and sins and shall die, for "all have sinned" and the "wages of sin is death." (Romans 3:23; 6:23) For the same God who says, "he that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life," also says that "he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him." (John 3:36) Be not deceived. You do not earn salvation by "good" conduct, membership in any organization, adherence to any creed, or by any ritual or sacrament. Salvation is a free gift of God which you receive through personal faith in His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. (Ephesians 2:8,9) Jesus Christ is "the way, the truth, and the life." (John 14:6) No one comes to God but by Him. No one knows the truth apart from Him. No one has life except through Him. Won't you believe this in your heart and call upon the Lord Jesus to save you? For "if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved." (Romans 10:9) God in His love and grace offers you salvation from sin and death. Your
response to God determines whether you will spend eternity in heaven or in hell.
Have you believed God and received His love through faith in Jesus Christ? If not,
believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and receive Him as your Saviour, and you shall be
saved from sin and death and have everlasting life. |

Jesus Died Your Soul To Save |
