3:23 for all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God;
Boy I can sure relate to that. I have no excuse to look down my nose at anyone.
6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
That's what I deserve. Death. but thank God Jesus redeemed me with his blood, humbling himself and remaining obedient even to death on the cross.
5:8But God commendeth his own love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
10:9 because if thou shalt confess with thy mouth Jesus `as' Lord, and shalt believe in thy heart that God raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved: 10:10for with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 10:11For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be put to shame. 10:12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek: for the same `Lord' is Lord of all, and is rich unto all that call upon him: 10:13 for, Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
Do ya ever get the impression Jesus wanted us bad? When he warns us about sin could it be because he loves us? He loved us enough to die for us. Maybe he wants the best for us. Think about the real Jesus before you start studying the New Age Jesus. Consider how the real Jesus Loved us.
1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he the right to become children of God, `even' to them that believe on his name:
I know in this day and age it's real popular to accept the God of the imaginations of Wayne Dwyar,
Oprah, and those who would like to accept the miracles of God. But Jesus really came in the flesh cause our God really wanted us to return to him. He wanted us bad.
3:16For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth on him should not perish, but have eternal life.
15:9 Even as the Father hath loved me, I also have loved you: abide ye in my love. 15:10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love. 15:11 These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy may be in you, and `that' your joy may be made full. 15:12 This is my commandment, that ye love one another, even as I have loved you. 15:13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. 15:14 Ye are my friends, if ye do the things which I command you.
