''What happened to my sins'' i asked myself and i realized that many of us will be going through the same trauma even when we dont say it loud enough for the next person to hear.
Most often we resign ourselves to fate and seem not to care in whatsoever happens to us but i will want you to know that in navigating the murky waters of life understanding is ''key''.
Anyway thats the objective of this blog post and i would congratulate you for standing out to seek understanding by checking in.
In our dissussion on ''what really is sin'' we understood that we inherited the sin nature from the sin nature from the first man that ever lived ''Adam'' and Paul communicating to the Roman church said:
For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God- Romans 3:23
We find out that whrn we were born there is always this knack for wanting to do things our way-the way that seems right to us irrespective of the implications. This has been the bane of a broken relationship/fellowship with our maker and life giver (Jehovah) placing a dividing wall between us making it pretty difficult for us to access Him.
Sin became a source of guilt and fear for us and when we sin for we often do sin our minds condemn us and we drag ourselves from God because we feel guilty afterall '' he does not behold iniquity''.
While man continue to struggle and could not find a way to get back to God, He was so kind and in love was creating a way to restore/reconcile man back to the place of fellowship for indeed he was reconciling the world to himself not counting people's sin's against them and in that while we where yet sinners he sent his son to die for us (2 Corinthians 5:19, Romans 5:8).
It was an act based on love , for this itself was the nature of God-for God is love and this reflected in the popular passage that we read/quote:
''for God so love the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believe in him should not perish but have eternal life''- John 3:16
In the above reading we find out that there is was no input on our part to the process except to believe in what has been done for us. It is absolutely a free gift that you dont have to work for but like every other gift there has to be acceptance for it to be your's.
Stick around for the concluding part and i remain your friend and brother
