SALVATiON = what God came down here to do for us, as Christ on the Cross.
Its just so amazing that the Bread of Life, the Bread of Heaven, the Word made flesh, the righteousness of God, the Light of the World, came down here, and died on The Cross so that by this One time Sacrifice for the sin of the world, all who believe will be saved, and will go to heaven.
That is a PROMISE from God.
That is just so AMAZING.
The LOVE that God has shown to us......in that He takes full responsibility for you being born into a world of sin, with an adamic nature..
This situation is, you are born in sin, and become a sinner, and you have no way of yourself to solve this.....at all.
So, God took full responsibility for it......for your situation, and came down here to save you......and lived the perfect sinless life for you, kept the law and commandments for you, and died on the Cross for ALL YOUR Sin. = God as Jesus on the Cross "became sin, and that means all of yours..
And when you trust in Christ, believing, then God produces a : Divine Exchange.
It this.....God literally places all your sin on Jesus, and takes all of Christ's righteousness, and Christ's law and commandment keeping, and the sinless lite that Christ LIVED, and it is given to you, as if YOU DID IT.......and that is who you become as a born again "new Creation"...."In Christ".
See that Divine Exchange?
Welcome to "the GIFT of Salvation"".
Welcome to being BORN AGAIN.......... Welcome ...to "the Gift of RIGHTEOUSNESS".
Welcome to : ""For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth."""""
""For Christ is the FULFILLMENT of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes. """"

Reader....
For you to go to Heaven, you have to be as Righteous as God, as its only the righteous who exist there.
And the problem is, you have no way to become righteous of yourself, as "ALL have sinned"... You have sinned, so, ....game over.
Now you have this SIN to resolve, and you can't resolve it, because you can't take care of all that sin.
You can't get it off of you.... and you can't stop God's judgement against SIN.
So, you are in a mess, and you can't of yourself solve it, and if its not solved you are going to die and go to hell.
There is Good news..... God has a Solution. God has a eternal resolution.
Its This...
God took responsibility for your sin.. So that you could be given His very RIGHTEOUSNESS. as "the GIFT of Righteousness".
And once you have it, then you have it, and that is why God can accept you, and bring you into His family, = born again.
How does God provide this for you?
He came here, lived a sinless life, and kept the law and commandments... He gained this, by doing it, because you didnt and cant.
Then, He went to the Cross and took the judgement do the world for all SIN, upon Himself, .... and this resolved it = forgave all sin.
John 3:17
2 Corinthians 5:19
This is Christ on the Cross, dying for YOU.
And When this was completed 2000 yrs ago, this death of God's body and shedding of God's blood on the Cross for the sin of the world... IS YOUR SALVATION........Jesus then said..>"IT is Finished".. The IT is what God had accomplished on the Cross, that IS our Salvation.
This Salvation, that God Himself earned, is offered as : "The GIFT of Salvation".
Every person who will come to Jesus, and believe, is given this Eternal GIFT.
This GIFT, is eternal, as this is GOD's Blood that is shed, not just man's.
It it GOD's Blood shed for you, that saves you and keeps you saved.
This GIFT, is preached, as "the preaching of the Cross", and this message is the message of reconciliation. This is the "the Gospel of the GRACE of God".
2 Corinthians 5:19.....""""that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people’s sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation"""""
It is God offering what He FINISHED on the Cross to anyone and everyone and ALL who will "call on the name of Jesus, believing,". OR....."as many as BELIEVE in Jesus.... I give to you Eternal Life, and you shall never go to Hell {perish}".
So, its by faith that you believe this GOSPEL, and its "faith comes by hearing", is the Holy Spirit opening your inner understanding to know this Truth, and receive it.
John 14:6
The very second you BELIEVE, 2 eternal things happen to you.
1.) God applies Jesus's shed blood to you, and that resolves ALL your sin, forever.
"Jesus is the ONE TIME......ETERNAL Sacrifice for sin"
"God hath made JESUS.... to BE SIN....for US, so that by this SACRIFICE, we the Believer = becomes the Righteousness of GOD...In Christ"..
= Born Again.
2.) Once the Blood of God has taken care of your sin, then God's Holy Spirit gives you a New Birth of your Spirit and you are born again, by the Spirit of God into God's Holy Spirit. .... You become "ONE with God, IN Christ". A "Son/Daughter of God"..... a "new Creation". "in Christ".
Notice who is on the Cross.
This is Jesus. And the best way to understand all of this, is to just recognize one thing.
Jesus Himself IS your Salvation.
Jesus Himself is your Eternal Life.
So, if you have Christ in you, then you are born again., you have Eternal life, and your Home is in Heaven.
