While We Were Enemies


For while we were still helpless, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly.  For one will hardly die for a righteous man; though perhaps for the good man someone would dare even to die.  But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him.

For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life.

And not only this, but we also exult in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation. 

Romans 5:6-11

While we were enemies of God, God was looking for us.  God sent His Son, Jesus, to come and teach us about Him, and to deliver His free gift of eternal life for all men, women and children. 

Like any gift, we have to accept the gift to have it.  That is, we need to acknowledge Jesus as our Lord, Master and Savior.

Receive the free gift; invite Jesus into your life today.
