In the very heart of Scripture (Romans. 3:21), it tells us that apart from the cross, no one can be declared righteous in GOD’S eyes! Yes, no good works or right living can earn us righteousness! Only through the shed blood of the Lamb of GOD is it possible to be cleansed of our sins and be able to enter the presence of a holy GOD and have a relationship with Him.
For GOD is just, and He must remain true to His own principles! Our Scripture today says “The soul who sins shall die.” The penalty for sin (death) had to be paid in a way that was acceptable to GOD, which was the shedding blood (Leviticus 17:11)!
On that basis, our Heavenly FATHER provided a perfectly sinless sacrifice for all mankind, He sent His only begotten Son to redeem us so we would not perish but have everlasting life.
John 11:25
YESHUA told her; “I am the resurrection and the life. Anyone who believes in Me will live, even after dying.
When we say there is only one way to the FATHER, we mean we must believe YESHUA died as a perfect sacrifice for us! To trust in anything else is to ignore GOD’S holiness!
BARUCH HASHEM
