He is the Lamb. He is the Son of God. As you listen to these songs, our hope is that they go deep into your soul, that you feel the Lord’s presence, and that you exalt him. If you do not know Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior, there is so much goodness in store for you. He paid the price for our sins, enabling us to come to the Father, God. Says:“ Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death. For what the law was powerless to do because it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh to be a sin offering.
And so he condemned sin in the flesh, in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fully met in us, who do not live according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.” God sent his Son, Jesus to be the atonement for our sins, to pay their price, in full. The says, “ If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.” “We are made right with God by placing our faith in Jesus Christ.
And this is true for everyone who believes, no matter who we are. For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God’s glorious standard. Yet God freely and graciously declares that we are righteous.
He did this through Christ Jesus when he freed us from the penalty for our sins. For God presented Jesus as the sacrifice for sin.
People are made right with God when they believe that Jesus sacrificed his life, shedding his blood.” (a)'Photo Courtesy: Thinkstock.
