Because of HIS Love For Us 2

You would have wondered why it seems so strange for man to look unto God; this has to do with the nature of man. Adam and Eve from the beginning were God conscious and not self conscious, but the devil in a cunning way deceived them and took control of their lives, the result leaving Adam and Eve self conscious and not God conscious anymore.

Their spirit being polluted would imply that every birth from Adam and Eve would also be spirit polluted. And Adam and Eve being the first of mankind implied the whole world was doomed. Because of the love God had towards man, he could not just destroy man, only a sacrifice of blood by a non polluted man would set mankind free again [ref. Hebrews 9:22]; but who was clean? God would have created another man to die for mankind, but the man won’t be of our kind, which won’t work. But in all these, God Himself decided to come to the rescue by becoming a man like us. And the only way to become like man was to be born!

As we know, God is omnipresent, so He sent His spirit (which is Himself) to be born of a woman. The spirit was not from a man but from God so, the child was blameless or “not polluted”. This would imply that that the only person who could serve as a sacrifice for the entire human race was the child who was born, His name is Jesus. Just as John the Baptist spoke of Jesus in John 1:29, “Behold! The Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world”

Jesus died for all of humanity in order that we might be saved. He saved us, but it is only when we believe in Jesus that we are truly saved. [ref. John3:18]

Why not accept Jesus today if you haven’t. Pray out loud, “Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me!” Congratulations, you’re born again, you are now brand new!
