In This Issue... Psalm 95:6, Quotes by Alistair Begg and Toby Shockey, Observations from Richard Blackaby, Robb Brunansky, and Editorial Team at WorshipLeader .com, Plus Song from Sandra McCracken
To answer the question, why was Jesus born? He was born, so we could be born again. I believe and I know that He was sent to seek and save that which was lost. He was mocked when He went to the places where the lost were. He was mocked following His trial, He was spit on. On the cross one of the thieves, asked Him to save Himself, if He was the Son of God. Yet, the other person on the cross, beside Him, asked Him to remember Him when He came into His Kingdom. Jesus said " Today you will be with me in paradise." A death bed confession, and yes, he received forgiveness and eternal life. I ask
myself, after recent things that have happened. How, can a child be responsible for terrible things that happened to them when they were a five year old child. I don't believe God does feels that way. To suffer again for those things are extremely painful. Sometimes, it takes years of therapy to cope, just to survive each day. God always, listens and cares. He sent Jesus, for people like that child.
