WHAT DOES THE BIBLE SAY?
Through His Word, God is saying many, many things. But there are several simple, basic truths, or facts, that God is trying to get through to us.
One of those is that GOD LOVES US – GOD LOVES YOU!
It doesn’t matter who you are or what you have done, God loves you! And He loves you so much that He sent His Son Jesus to die a horrible death on the cross to pay for every one of your sins, and mine. Can you imagine the pain that Jesus endured on that cross? No, you can’t and neither can I. But He did it because He cares about you and wants you to understand how much the Father loves you and wants you to spend eternity in heaven with Him.
This is really what the Bible is saying, over and over and over again. But another thing the Bible tells us is that the enemy of God, Satan, who is also the enemy of every human being, is doing everything he can to try to lie to people about God and distract them in any way he can from reading God’s Word, or listening to it or even talking about it. And so every day, and every minute of the day, the devil tells you to listen to this, or look at that – just do whatever you want, but don’t pay any attention to God, or the Bible, or Christians.
Satan is deceiving so many people right now with so many lies about God. But every good thing that exists in this world came to us because God made it. Life, and light, and love, and anything else we can think of that is good, came to us as gifts from God. The Bible tells us all this, but do we read it? Many people will not because the devil has distracted them through sin and sinful things. Often times, things that look to be so good, and enjoyable, like drugs, or sex, can keep people away from God. And once you get addicted to these things, you become trapped.
But God still loves you, even then! And if you will just turn to Him, and look to Jesus in faith, He can, and will set you free. Will you do it? Today? I challenge you to look to God today. Just give Jesus a chance. Tomorrow could be too late.
