World Boxing Champion Manny Pacquiao Becomes A Born Again Christian
“Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it…
peace does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble, or hard work. Peace means to be in the midst of all those things and still be calm in your heart.
13 But Christ has rescued us from the curse pronounced by the law. When he was hung on the cross, he took upon himself the curse for our wrongdoing. For it is written in the Scriptures, “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.” 14 Through Christ Jesus, God has blessed the Gentiles with the same blessing he promised to Abraham, so that we who are believers might receive the promised Holy Spirit through faith. Galatians 3:13-14
You see Satan uses guilt to strip away our hope. He shows us our mistakes and tells us we’re a joke. I used to sit and mope like what’s the point and all. If I’m a Christian why is it that every day I seem to fall. But I ain’t known that all my sins were nailed upon the cross. I found out in chapter 2 in the book of Colossians. See the devils a liar yeah he is an accuser. He tells me I’m worthless, he says I’m a loser. But now I refuse to let him lead me wrong. Reading the word in the morn got me feeling strong. I found my worth in Christ and I’m pursuing truth. A living testimony so you can do it too.
JESUS. The Name above all names. The High King among all high kings. The Lord of lords. The Alpha and the Omega. The Great I Am. The True Light. The Way, the Truth, and the Life. The Darling of Heaven. The Begotten Son of God.
Most of all, the One who truly loved you so much, He was definitely willing to hang Himself up on that tree on your behalf. He took the shame. He endured all the pain. He placed upon Himself the dirt, the weight, and the evil of all your sins. He did all that so that you will be accepted in the arms of His Father. He did all that just so your account and your slate will be wiped clean—forever. He did all that so you can get what He, the Pure, Innocent and Perfect Lamb, deserved. He endured all those things so YOU will benefit from them.
It’s because He loves you. It’s not just because it is His responsibility as our God to save us from the mess we are in. No. He did that because it was His desire— His one and only desire— to be with us, and to make us enjoy the burning, raging love He has for us.
Right now, if you’re still feeling guilty, or you think you deserve what is going on in your life, remember the cross and think again. YOU DESERVE SO MUCH MORE, beloved, because of what He has bought for you. Claim that. Believe Him, and know that He hasn’t changed from the very beginning. He is still irrevocably, crazily, and passionately in love with you.
