A Sweetheart Deal: God's incredible offer in his unspeakable gift
Dr. Ernan Norman
.....
The name JESUS means Savior. He came to save us from our sins, not in our sins. It also means that God sent His Son to not only save us from our sins, but to save us from the very presence of sin. Think of what that means to you and me this Christmas. It means that we have hope for the future. Despite the despair, the disappointments, and the brokenness we see in our world today, and even at Christmas, Jesus coming as our Savior means that there will be a far better world, free from sin, sickness, and death. John the Revelator saw that better world. John said:
“I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall dwell with them, and be their God. And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful,” Revelation 21:1-5.
