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 a 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.
Romans
5:6-8
We
started taking our Granddaughter to church two years ago. I was not sure how much she learned about
God, but I knew that she had a good time.
This week she said, “Jesus took all our sins and died so that we can go
to heaven.”
If
a six year old understands this, then why are we not shouting it from the roof
tops for everyone to hear? I think it is
because we are afraid we will be met with skepticism or ridicule or be labeled
as religious fanatics.
What
we need to consider is that we live a world full of people looking for God, and
it is our job to tell them about Jesus.
We have a great message and we should not be afraid to boldly proclaim it: “… God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners,
Christ died for us.”
