One Cross, One Time - Joy Chiasson
"For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself." Hebrews 9:26 KJV
There is only One cross for security.
There is only One time before I face eternity.There is only One God that sent His Son to die for me.There is only One drop of blood that set me free.
When you think about it, God is so powerful that HE only sent His Son once to die, once for all mankind, for past, present, and future generations. Why, then, do we think when we sin we need to crucify HIM again?
Why does man think that God failed at the task the first time in our lives? There is a question to consider, though; did you really understand and mean it when you turned your life over to HIM in the first place? I had to ask myself this very question. I went through thirteen years thinking I had accepted Him, but there was just something missing. Finally, at the age of eighteen, I saw that I needed to believe that Jesus did it once for me. My heart's passion is to see that those who might have accepted Jesus when they were young understand this truth.
NOW is the time to accept HIM for Real, and never think again when you have sinned that you have to put Jesus on the cross again. Praise God, HE did it all the first time.
"And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:" Hebrews 9:27 KJV
My comment: Christ Jesus said to the woman caught in adultery: "Go and sin no more." That is what He says to each of us who have accepted Him as Savior and Lord. When we do sin, we ask Him to forgive us, and that is not crucifying Him again.
