Complete Payment for Your Sin
BIBLE MEDITATION:
Romans 3:25 - "Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in His
blood, to declare His righteousness for the remission of sins that are past,
through the forbearance of God."
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
Propitiation is a big word that means satisfaction. Because God is a holy God,
His anger and justice burns against sin. And He has sworn that sin will be
punished.
There must be a satisfactory payment for sin. But God said, "If I punish man
for his sin, man will die and go to hell. On the other hand, if I don't punish
man for his sin, My justice will never be satisfied."
The solution? God said that He would become our substitute. He would take the
sin of mankind upon Himself in agony and blood a righteous judgment and
substitute for sin.
His wrath burned out on the cross when His only Son died as man's propitiation
for sin. And this is love (see 1 John 4:10).
ACTION POINT:
Question: What can you bring Jesus today to repay Him for what He has done for
you? Answer: Nothing could suffice. But "Love so amazing, so divine, demands my
soul, my life, my ALL!"
