THE DAILY BLUEPRINT - 8.18.09
Who He Called
Mark 2:17
When JESUS heard it, He said unto them, "They that are whole have no need of a physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance!"
Jesus was being questioned for hanging up with "sinners" those who thought they where righteous (the religious) judged who Jesus was hanging out with - but Jesus had the last word and we see it in today's verse - He said that He did not come to call the righteous - but sinners - Jesus came to save sinners - not those who thought they could make it on their own merit - Jesus didn't come to hang out with those who thought they had it all together - but those who were down trodden - the forgotten - the over looked - we too need to keep our eyes out for the sinners that need JESUS - we are all sinners if the truth be known - without the blood of JESUS we are all headed to a place that is far from God - a place that is real - though many don't believe it - hell is a real place - and Jesus came to save us from it! He came and laid down HIS life so that we could have life eternal - Jesus didn't come here so that those who could do well on their own could see Him - He came to save the sin-sick - and again truth be known without Christ - there would be no hope at all - Jesus called the sinners to repentance - without the knowledge that we are sinners - we would never have accepted Christ -remember this when dealing with someone who does not know Christ - we have to be loving - but at the same time we must not water down the truth - Jesus loved the sinners - we must as well - again we are all sinner - but those who know Christ have become what I call - Sinners-saved! Let's celebrate our redemption in Christ - but also bear in mind there is a lost and dying world around us that needs JESUS today!
I know I am a sinner but also know that JESUS saved me! ~ Daniel<><
BUILDING MOMENT:
JESUS WANTS ALL TO COME TO KNOW HIM!
Because we have CHRIST - we have hope no matter what!
8.18.09 - Building on the WORD
JESUS CAME IN LOVE - HE LOVED THOSE THE WORLD DIDN'T
