Why do we need Christ?,what would your answer be if you were asked,well I want us to consider three reasons.
[1]We need Christ if we are to have our sins forgiven,the supreme purpose for Him coming,was to save His people from their sins.The question you may ask ,is,what is sin?,whatsoever is not of faith is sin[Romans 14 v22].Sin is all those things contrary to Gods law and,all unrighteousness is sin.[1 John 5 v17].[CP. ....[Romans 1 v20-32./3v9-23] ,our sin must be forgiven,for the wrath of God is revealed against all unrighteousness[Romans 1 v18]
[ 2]
We need Christ for without Him we will never go to heaven,but we will go to that unmentionable place,for all eternity.People make jokes of people
coming up to Peter at the gates of heaven,and him asking what have you done to be let in ?. Stuff an nonsense in Matthew 7v 22-23 .we read of those
who say what they hath done,but Jesus turns them away.It is not what we have done that gets us into heaven,but what Jesus has done.
[3]
We need Jesus if we are to know God,if we are to be classed as Gods children,only those who know Jesus,who receive Jesus, can call God Father.Many,many people say those words,Our Father who art in Heaven,and yet they know not Jesus as their Saviour.For the scripture clearly teaches,as many as receive Him[Jesus],to them gave He the right to become children of God,to those who believe in His name[John 1 v12]
A prayer.
Dear God help us to see that we must know Jesus as our saviour,if we are to know forgiveness ,to enter Heaven,and to Know God as our Father, We ask this in His name Amen.
