James 2:10 NLT: “For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it.”
For years God maintained a pass/fail grading system. Get 100% right, pass. Get one thing incorrect, fail. Tough standards! It goes without saying that too few people were succeeding at joining the Father in the hereafter.
Therefore God introduced the New Covenant by sending his Son Jesus to redeem mankind. As he died, Jesus would take the sins of the world to the place of the dead, to the bottom of the deepest ocean. With Jesus, we’re separated from sin as far as the east is from the west! Under the New Covenant, those who put their faith, hope and trust in Jesus the Christ are forgiven and pass. Those who reject the Son, fail. Many more people are seeing the afterlife by accepting forgiveness offered by the Son.
God created us with the freedom to choose – Jesus or not Jesus. We never want to find ourselves among those who chose incorrectly,
Thank God for Jesus’ forgiveness!
