Romans 5:1-21 KJV

[1] Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: [2] by whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. [3] And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; [4] and patience, experience; and experience, hope: [5] and hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. [6] For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. [7] For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. [8] But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. [9] Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. [10] For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life. [11] And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement. [12] Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: [13] (for until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law. [14] Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come. [15] But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the offence of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many. [16] And not as it was by one that sinned, so is the gift: for the judgment was by one to condemnation, but the free gift is of many offences unto justification. [17] For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.) [18] Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life. [19] For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous. [20] Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound: [21] that as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.

Note for 20241105

Salvation does not come by what I have done, but by what Jesus Christ has done according to the Will of our Father GOD in Heaven. That has brought peace with GOD, by the Love of GOD to usward. See then, that GOD is the Peacemaker first, for He presented a Way unto Salvation for thousands of years, before He shall come to judge the world. He permitted it to rain on both the righteous and the wicked for all that time. We have short memories, for our lives are about as a breath in the sight of GOD, Who lives forever. So just is He, that the way of Salvation comes by One, just as sin entered in by one. Now man can stand in peace with GOD, His prayers can be heard in GOD'S Throne room, with Christ as the advocate of mankind, at the Right Hand of the Most High GOD. 

The grandest thing is that it remains true, whether we believe or not; however, our faith determines our end. I can share the Truth, but I cannot make anyone believe. So must each one choose for himself the path he intends to walk in the sight of GOD Almighty, here on earth. Does the Word of GOD convince you? Do you accept the Word of GOD in Truth? Do you wish to live forever in the presence of GOD, or die soon? Live then in the presence of GOD now, by the Holy Spirit of GOD that was poured out on all flesh. Accept HIM, and He shall come in and sup with you. The believer accepts the Lord Jesus Christ here and now, hoping for that which, as yet, remains unseen. We join the Kingdom of GOD now; by our own choice do we surrender unto Him. So too, is He our King now. A merciful King is He, forgiving the sins of sinners like me.

Shalom

Verse of The Day

From the YouVersion Bible App

Psalm 133:1-3 KJV

[1] Behold, how good and how pleasant it is For brethren to dwell together in unity! [2]  It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, Even Aaron's beard: That went down to the skirts of his garments; [3] As the dew of Hermon, And as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: For there the LORD commanded the blessing, Even life for evermore.

Note on Psalm 133

Expanded from verse 1 as given by the YouVersion Bible App.

Friends, pray with me for peace in the USA, as America heads to the voting stations today. It is my sincere hope that this Psalm prevails today, and man learns not the value of unity in the absence of it. A house divided against itself shall not stand. Why would brothers make war on one another? Is mankind like Cain that murdered his brother Abel? Is mankind like Jacob and Esau in the womb, struggling with one another? Are we witnessing the seed war as pronounced by GOD in Genesis 3:15? Can man find peace with GOD, in Jesus Christ, the way unto salvation? Will mankind surrender to the rule and reign of GOD? Love thine enemies!
