The Ultimate Gift, The Ultimate Goal

Oct. 12 2013
 The Ultimate Gift, The Ultimate Goal

The word of God is precise, as individuals we all we see the word differently.  At times some of us receive the message instantly for others it takes time.  Jesus was born for the precise reason as an atonement for mankind, the ulimate gift. Jesus crucifiction was not the end it was the beginning.

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life

In verse 17 through him the world might be saved.

17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

Heaven and eternal life is the ultimate goal,

2 Timothy 4:7 I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:
8 Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.
 
1 John 1:8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
 
Jesus is the Ultimate Gift and the Ultimate Goal is heaven and eternal life.
 
This last year I struggle with being submissive, altho I prayed I was not submissive, I would second guess God, I wanted things done my way and yesterday. I had my own agenda when moving here, but God has another plan and being submissive is apart of that plan. God's grace opened my heart and my eyes.  Allowed me to experience the Godly relationship he intended for us the ultimate goal of redemption, salvation, to have eternal life in heaven.
