The Christian life is about the "exchanged life." When we come to Christ, we reckon ourselves to have died with Christ on the cross. We take up our new life that is found in Christ. This is what being 'born again' is all about. It's the exchanged life. We give Him all of our "bad" and He gives us all of His "good"...what a great deal (for us). Yes, Jesus is back in His rightful place, with the Father, but He had to take on an incredible amount of suffering to redeem us back to Him. Praise you Lord Jesus for the marvelous things You have done!
A place designed to inspire and encourage people daily in God's love and grace! "Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits. Who forgives all your iniquities, who heals all your diseases." Psalm 103:2-3 If you want to be saved, just call on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Give your life to Him and ask Him to do something with it. Begin reading the Word of God, esp. the book of John. Find a church that preaches the Word of God and begin a wonderful journey of knowing Him.
