C'mon, raise your hand. was/is that you!? it's ok, you're in a safe place.
while there are many ways to dispute that claim i think i have come up with the simplest logic to tell you why that is false. Trust me Peeps you were born in the right era, at the right time, to the right people.
When jesus walked this earth; he was simply a man. like you. not me, i'm a woman.
as indicated in the picture below.
See, im a girl. i have hair. |
That is basically my entire rebuttal to this nostalgia. when man sinned we traded sides and lived under the jurisdiction of satan... even jesus. All of that changed AFTER his resurrection(he reclaimed jurisdiction and satan lost all power. the poor sap, homeless and defeated).So you see, we got the fluffy side of the mop.
In Jesus' day people only had a HOPE of salvation, all thay had was the hope that jesus really was who he said he was and wasn't going to muck anything up.
Today, WE HAVE VICTORY! We don't have to wonder and hope like they did. We already know, it's already done! They didn't have a sure thing like we do. If you are brutally honest with yourself like i was you'll realize you've grown accustomed to indoor plumbing and are grateful that God chose you for such a time as this. (and my that i mean, running faucet water)
God really does think of everything. He's so legit.

P.s. Just so i'm clear i do believe that Jesus WAS the messiah come to save the race, but as scriptures indicate he was a man with the same capacity to sin or not sin as we do. He didn't walk through life temptaion-less. So he had the capacity in him to fail.
Love your theme - I have this one too!!
