Often when we think of God, we have a picture of a judge waiting to deliver a judgment blow for everything that we do and have done wrong in our lives. If this is our picture it is misconstrued.
God is holy, and we know that what is unholy cannot be in His presence. In order to restore us to a place so that we can come before Him in righteousness He sent us His one and only Son.
In John 3:17 we read,
"For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world
But to save the world through Him."
Our decision determines our stand before God.
John 3:18 tells us,
"Whoever believes in Him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son."
So the choice is up to you...
Choose today.
Christ in Christmas
Take time this advent season to re-align your focus on Jesus Christ.
He is the only reason for this season.
Take time each day to read the Scripture passage and to listen to the song.
