Santa & Cross

👍 Thank you all for being Amazing Neighbors! 🥰 As we look around at the Disasters our world has become in 2023, it is encouraging to remember the True Meaning of Christmas. 😉 GOD created Everything, including Mankind as Good and put Man in charge, but Humanity decided he wanted to be "god", so he rebelled against God’s Authority (Gen. 1-3; Eccl. 7:29). Since God is HOLY and cannot tolerate Sin, HE will and shall someday bring Justice and Judge the World. (The Book of Revelations) “Upon Judgement Day, every person will give an account for every careless thought, word, and/or deed.” (Matt. 12:36, I Cor. 3:11-23) But God is also MERCIFUL (Eph. 2:1-10). HE sent JESUS, Fully 100% God and Fully 100% Man, to Pay the Price for our Sedition/Rebellion and Restore our Connection to God again. “For GOD did not send HIS SON to Condemn the World, but that the Mankind might be Saved through HIM.” (John 3:17) “If you confess with your own mouth that 'JESUS is LORD', and believe in your heart that GOD has Raised HIM from the Death, you will be saved.” (Rom. 10:9) Once we do this, God sends the Holy Spirit to empower us to live Lives of Eternal Significance and HIS Satisfaction. “For the Thief comes to steal, kill, and destroy. But I, the Lord Jesus Christ, have come that they might have Real LIFE, and have it to the FULL.” (John 10:10) Consequently, there are really only two ways to live: (1) For Yourself! (Rom. 3) OR (2) For God! (Matt. 22:34-40/Mark 12:28-34) Finally, as Jesus saith, “I have told you all these Things, so that MY JOY may be in you, and your JOY may be COMPLETE.” (John 15:11) This Christ's Birthday Celebration, I wish for you this LIFE of JOY!!! 😁 {SOURCE: A short Gospel Presentation to Print and Share/Post/Forward with all your neighbor from "Two Ways to Live" material.
