Wonderful Savior
“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”
John 3:16
Jesus is the Son of God. The heavenly Father sent His Only Begotten Son to earth for our sinful sakes. Jesus, Son of the Highest, became incarnate for one redemptive purpose––to die on the Cross for our sins.
This was the only way to save mankind. Jesus, God incarnate, only can forgive us our sins. He paid the ultimate price. By the shedding of His precious blood on the Cross, we are saved by His grace. The Law condemned us. Jesus had no sin. He became a sinless sacrifice:
He has appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself…. Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many. To those who eagerly wait for Him He will appear a second time, apart from sin, for salvation (Hebrews 9:26, 28).
Do you comprehend the magnitude of this Gospel message? Jesus is the hope of your salvation; the wonderful hope of spending eternity with Him is yours! When you focus on Christ, I believe your life will come into a perfect peace, knowing Jesus is the reason for the season. Christ’s birth is the best gift of Christmas! He is what matters the most.
Jesus is your wonderful Savior! There is reason to rejoice! Find the comfort and peace you need from reading the Scriptures. Let this Christmas be filled with God’s wonder, knowing He sent His Only Begotten Son into the world––all because of His love for you!
Christ has for sin atonement made
What a wonderful Savior!
We are redeemed, the price is paid
What a wonderful Savior!
I praise Him for the cleansing blood
What a wonderful Savior!
That reconciled my soul to God
What a wonderful Savior!
He cleansed my heart from all its sin
What a wonderful Savior!
