THINGS THAT ARE FREELY GIVEN TO US

 THINGS THAT ARE FREELY GIVEN TO US

 

By Rev Michael Benson Ajayi

Sin is an incurable disease that results in deterioration of the life of it's victim . Man created in God's image to live forever but after Adam sinned , life expectancy began to drop Adam lived for nine hundred and thirty years and as sinned disease began to advance and mutate life expectancy further dropped to as low as 55.75 years in Nigeria according to the United Nations population prospects for the year 2023 . Sin makes a person think less of himself and it is transferred through the human bloodline from the first man Adam to all humans .

  Likewise , the free gift of salvation by grace , the Bible says in Romans 5:15-17 "But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the offence of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many.

[16]And not as it was by one that sinned, so is the gift: for the judgment was by one to condemnation, but the FREE GIFT is of many offences unto justification.

[17]For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)

   It is strictly a blood thing , that is why seeking to be justified through religious washings is an exercise in futility ( Mark 7:6-7) Jesus Christ took upon himself the blood disease of the sins of humanity and it was drained out of his body on the cross as it is in the treatment of incurable blood diseases

  pierced (John19 :34)  There was an exchange of our sins for his righteousness (2Cor 5:17-21) 

  In a complete blood exchange, a new personality is formed as in the case of persons who received stem cell transplant . We are new creatures in Christ and its free. . 

We are reminded of this procedure during the Holy Communion ( Matthew 26:26-27, Heb 2;14-15, John 6:53) 

   Healing is free because of this free gift , the Bible says in Matthew 10:8  'Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give. "

  Our justification before God is free ,no sacrifice is needed anymore , the Bible says in   Romans 3:24 ' Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:' and in  Romans 8:32 ' ,He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?

   The anointing of God's favor is free , the Bible says in Revelation 21:6] "And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely." 

Prayer: Heavenly Father forgive me of my sins against you I believe Jesus Christ died and was raised again for my salvation. I receive him as lord and saviour and receive the Holy Ghost and power to preach . Amen
