Without Sin!

For Tuesday, November 22, 2022:

Colossians 2:14 NLT: “God canceled the record of the charges against us, and took it away by nailing it to the cross.”

This is Thanksgiving week in the US, and many people are thankful for health and abundance. But the thing for which to be the most thankful is that God canceled our record of sin. On the cross, Jesus took the sins of the world to the place of the dead, adopting believers as “Children of God.” Without sin, we can look forward to eternity in the presence of Father God.

Life on this earth is relatively short. In the US, people’s lifetimes average 73.7 years. Eternity is a much longer time. Eternity is forever. Forever is a good length of time to spend with God Almighty! Forever would be a painful length of time to spend in the lake of fire.

Because of the work Jesus did on the cross, Christians have “Assurance of Salvation.” With Jesus, our sins are forgiven. Jesus said he would go ahead and prepare a place for believers, those who put their faith, hope and trust in him. Believers get to see heaven from the inside!

Remember to thank God for the wonderful gift of salvation!
