The Bible has offered a lot for y’all, us all regarding those sorrowful images.
First of all is the Grace of God. That He sent His Only Begotten Son, Jesus Christ, to give us salvation. You see, we are sinners, we commit sins every single day and that we are doomed to die and to suffer eternal suffering on the lake of fire. We all are unrighteous, we are not perfect, seeing the fallen world we have today. Because of that, we need salvation from someone who is perfect. Jesus Christ willingly took our sins upon Himself and die on the cross, was buried and rose again the third day according to the scriptures. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be saved.
(For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)
2 Corinthians 6:2
What happened to me when I believed?
1. I was forgiven of all my sin, past, present, and future.
Now that you believe, God has forgiven you all trespasses (Colossians 2:13). The Apostle Paul declares that God for Christs sake
hath forgiven you (Ephesians 4:32), and so in Christ we have redemption
through His blood, the forgiveness of sins (Ephesians 1:7;
Colossians 1:14).
2. I was justified in the sight of God.
The word justify in Scripture means to make righteous. Gods
Word says that we are justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus (Romans 3:24), and that being now
justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him
(Romans 5:9). Paul assures us that we are justified in the name of
the Lord Jesus (I Corinthians 6:11), and that being justified by His
grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life
(Titus 3:7).
3. I was given eternal and everlasting life.
The gift of God is eternal life (Romans 6:23), for by the righteousness of One the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life (Romans 5:18). All who believe on Christ believe on Him to life everlasting (I Timothy 1:16) and become heirs according to the hope of
eternal life (Titus 3:7).
4. I was indwelt by the Holy Spirit of God.
Speaking to believers, Paul says that God has sent forth the Spirit
of His Son into your hearts (Galatians 4:6) and so now the Spirit
dwelleth in us (II Timothy 1:14; Romans 8:9,11). His presence within
us is the down payment that God has made in us that shows He is as
serious about redeeming our bodies as He was about redeeming our
souls. Paul declares that the Spirit is the earnest of our inheritance
until the redemption of the purchased possession (Ephesians 1:14).
This blessing comes with a moral and spiritual obligation to be a
godly host to the Royal Guest within us. The Apostle Paul asked the
Corinthians, who were not living in a godly manner: What? know ye
not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you,
which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought
with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit,
which are Gods (I Corinthians 6:19,20).
*Trusting Man
The fear of man bringeth a snare: but whoso putteth his trust in the LORD shall be safe.
Proverbs 29:25
It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man.
Psalms 118:8
*Loving Wealth
They that trust in their wealth, and boast themselves in the multitude of their riches;
None of them can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a ransom for him:
(For the redemption of their soul is precious, and it ceaseth for ever:)
Psalms 49:6-8
For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
1 Timothy 6:10
*Comforting the Tired in Life
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
Matthew 11:28-30
Believe in God, put your trust in Him by accepting His Gift, His Grace that Jesus died on the cross, was buried and rose again.
