Romans 3:23, Painting with Light by Mark Lawrence
”for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” Romans 3:23
Perhaps more than any other verse in the Bible are we all confronted with our need for a Savior on Judgment Day. No matter how hard we try, or how many good deeds that we do, we have all sinned in the eyes of God and do not deserve to be admitted into His Kingdom.
Unfortunately many people think that they will be able to successfully rationalize their behavior, or reason with God about why they broke His laws on that fateful day. My heart breaks at the horror, hopelessness and terror of the eternal death sentences that will be given to those souls.
God is Holy and Righteous and Just. A Just God cannot accept the excuses of a guilty sinner at the time of judgment and remain a just and honorable God. To do so would make Him lie and violate His own Word. God cannot lie.
Fortunately Jesus was sent to earth from heaven to fulfill God’s plan. (John 6:38) Every aspect of His life—from His birth as a little baby to His death on the cross—was part of God’s gift and plan for us.
God gave His Son Jesus because we urgently need to be rescued from the penalty of our sin. Without Jesus we face a life of wrath and divine condemnation- (Romans 5:18)
There is nothing that we can do ourselves to pay the penalty that God requires for our sin. We need a Savior; Jesus who has offered to pay our sin-penalty for us if we repent of our sin and make Him our Lord. (Romans 6:23) Jesus lived a sinless life, and only He is qualified and authorized by God to cleanse us and make us children of God. He became our Redeemer, and through Him is the only path to join the family of God. (Romans 5:10)
Jesus offered His own life willingly on the cross as a sacrifice to pay for the sins of those who make Him Lord. God’s fierce wrath, and an eternal death sentence are but a heartbeat away from those who reject this free and amazing gift from Jesus Christ. Do not delay, the price of sin is unimaginable…
