THE OFFENDER AND THE AFFECTIONATE SEEKER

A young girl left her mother and lived waywardly. She lived in sin and was heading to hell. An elderly woman who happened to meet the young girl, advised her to get back to her mother and escape from the wretched life she lived. The girl replied telling that she was too wretched to be accepted back by her Mom. But when the mother heard of it, she forgave her daughter and rushed money for her immediate return.

God, who is more compassionate and loving, looks forward to the return of every man and woman, with repentant hearts without least delay. The loving God stands with His outstretched arms to receive back every penitent sinner.

When Adam fell in sin, God did not tarry in heaven waiting for Adam to come searching for Him. But God immediately rushed to the earth seeking Adam to save him from eternal death. “Adam”, God called man and asked him, “Where are you?” But the man hid himself in the bushes of the garden. Adam dashed to the ground all the blessings and privileges by his disobedience and was attempting to hide from the eyes of his Creator. It should have been Adam’s duty to cry to the Creator for mercy as he was the offender.

But God sought after the offender, “Adam, where are you?” God sought Adam not to send him to hell for his rebellion, but to save him from the punishment for his disobedience, from the torments of eternal hellfire, the rightful place for sinners, the rightful place for you and me. But God does not desire anyone to land in hell, but all to experience the joy of salvation. That is why God sent His only Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, who took upon Himself the punishment of your sins and my sins on the cross.

What love is this! What compassion is this! What grace is this!

Yes. It is true and worthy of all acceptation that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, you and me. For the very purpose, He bore our sins in His own body on the cross. The Lord Jesus Christ was absolutely holy and sinless and yet He chose our place on the cross to set us free from the punishment of our sin.

Dear reader, if you truly confess your sins to God and believe in your heart, that the Lord Jesus Christ died for your sins, and rose again for your justification, you will receive eternal life right now. May this by your memorable experience!
