The Story - Pt. 30 - Paul’s Mission
In the first four books of the New Testament - Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John - we learn that Jesus’ objective is very clear: he is going to represent us. He who knew no sin became our sin that we might become his righteousness. On the day the sinless Jesus died on the cross, all of the sins of humanity - past, present, and future - were placed on him. God then took Jesus’ sacrifice as full payment for our sins. Those who reach out and grab the free gift by faith are forgiven of their sins and they enter into the eternal relationship with the living God he has been wanting with us all along.
Now the question is, who is going to take the message of Jesus and what he has done to the world?
