This past weekend, Jonathan began a brand new series entitled, “In Over Your Head”, by talking about the fact that good people don’t go to heaven, forgiven people do.
Here is the verse/thought that stood out to me in the message...
Titus 3
3 Once we, too, were foolish and disobedient. We were misled and became slaves to many lusts and pleasures. Our lives were full of evil and envy, and we hated each other.
4 But - “When God our Savior revealed his kindness and love,
5 he saved us, not because of the righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He washed away our sins, giving us a new birth and new life through the Holy Spirit.
6 He generously poured out the Spirit upon us through Jesus Christ our Savior.
7 Because of his grace he declared us righteous and gave us confidence that we will inherit eternal life.”
We can’t save ourselves ... only God can. Thankfully, He did ... through the life, death and resurrection of Jesus. If you have experienced God’s grace, I encourage you to live in confidence today because God loves you and has taken care of the biggest problem you will ever face. If you haven’t, please email me (jeff@myeastside.cc). I would love to talk with you about how you can experience that same grace and live in that same confidence.
