If Jesus Had to Die

"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life" (John 3:16).

The Holy Spirit is still among us with transforming power for
that one who hears the gospel message and really believes it. He still converts. He still regenerates. He still transforms.

It is tragic that we try to hide from Him in the caves and dens of the earth, among the trees of the garden. It is tragic that men and women keep their hearts so hard that they cannot feel, and so deaf that they cannot hear.

There are many who are hearing the Voice of God, but they insist that the "way" should be made easier for them.

Oh, listen! If hell is what God says it is, if sin is what God says it is, if Jesus Christ had to die to save the sinner - is it asking too much for you to let people know that you are turning from sin?

Out of all God's creatures, only the soul has a capacity large enough for God to empty... the whole ground of his being into it. This He does in the act of giving birth to Himself spiritually in the soul.
