JESUS TAKES AWAY SIN

 

JESUS TAKES AWAY SIN

Rom. 3:22 We are made right in God’s sight when we trust in Jesus Christ to take away our sins. And we all can be saved in this same way, no matter who we are or what we have done. NLT

Two things of great importance are found here in today’s verse. The most important truth that anyone can know is that we are made right with God when we trust in Christ to take away our sins. If we do not trust in Christ for our salvation, we cannot be right with God. Jesus is the only way we can get rid of our sins. He alone has the power and authority to forgive. He alone has the right to take them away and throw them into the sea of God’s forgetfulness. To trust Jesus to save us is to confess that you have sinned, take responsibility for it, acknowledge that He alone can forgive you, ask Him to forgive, accept His forgiveness, and live like you are forgiven by not living the life of sin anymore.

The second great truth we find here that all must know is that no one is excluded from the possibility of being saved. All who desire salvation can be saved, regardless of who we are or what we have done. There is no sin greater than God’s ability to save us from it. It may matter to man what we have done, but it doesn’t matter to God. He can and will forgive the vilest of sinners who sincerely come to Him for forgiveness.

Jesus came into our world to take away our sins. He is no respecter of persons. Salvation is available to anyone who sincerely seeks Him regardless of the sin. All have sinned against God. There is no sin that can keep you out of heaven if you turn to Christ in sincere repentance.

Don’t let sin rob you of the joy of salvation in this life or in the life to come.
