A Daily Devotional About being saved in our spirit: Romans 5:17 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. (NIV) All of us are headed for a cliff and sooner or later we will, each and every one of us, fall off of this cliff with no net to physically save us. How much better to be saved in our spirit! How much better to have everlasting life in our spirit! We are all going to physically die. Some of us know we are going to physically die while some of us live in denial of our physical death. Although we can try to run away and escape our physical reality, inwardly, deep down inside, we all know the truth we will someday stand before God on the day we die. We all know in the end there will be a physical end. However, we need not have an end. Instead, when we accept Christ we have, instead of an end, a new beginning in glory. Although we may grieve for those who have passed on ahead of us, is our grief well-founded? The answer is no. Our grief for those we have lost is a selfish reaction. What person would not glory to see a friend or loved one win a great prize? In Christ and because of Him, His gift of everlasting life is the greatest prize anyone could ever win. |
