A life with Christ means ?, well what do you think it means? it means one has found the meaning of life, that's a precious thing to know.It means we know why we are here, when we know Christ as our Saviour the mystery of life is revealed to us,we see that the universe just didn't happen,that's impossible.The Bible tells us tells us why evil exists ,and its consequences,we look at evil, and we don't have far to look,everyday we are confronted with it,wars and more wars,murders and more murders,rapes and more rapes,and so on .Yes sin brings its consquences, we rightly say no one is perfect,but then you may say,surely in all of history there was one perfect being with no flaws,no faults,no hangovers,there was one exceptoon Christ,yes he was the the only perfect person.This person whose birth we celebrate every year,who was the same as us,yet not the same,for He was also the Son of God in Colossians 2 v9,we are told 'For in Christ lives all the fullness of God in a human body'.He who came from heaven born of a virgin,came to rescue sinners and bring them to heaven.What is the meaning of His awful death on the cross?,it is described as a sacrifice for sin, ( Hebrews 9 v28 ),a sacrifice in which He bore the wrath of God,so we would not have to bear it,when I say we ,I am speaking of those who put their faith in Him as their Saviour,that is the meaning of His coming,until we enter into that personaly ,life will never have meaning,it will always remain a mystery.
'We will continue walking in the dark,
until we trust Christ who is the light
of the world'.
