THE SIMPLICITY OF SALVATION

THE SIMPLICITY OF SALVATION

Alexander III was the Tsar [emperor] of Russia from 1881 to 1894.  His reign was marked by political repression, and in particular by a horrific persecution of the Jews.  On the other hand, his wife, Maria Feodorovna, provided a stark contrast and was known for her generosity to those in need.  

On one occasion her husband signed an order consigning a prisoner to life in exile.  It read simply “Pardon impossible, to be sent to Siberia.”

Maria changed that prisoner’s entire life and destiny by simply moving the comma in her husband’s order.  She altered the message to read “Pardon, impossible to be sent to Siberia.”

Through the atonement of Jesus Christ, the Father forever changed the comma that stood against our freedom and our future.  “Pardon impossible, send to hell” was miraculously changed to the good news of our eternal salvation: “Pardon, impossible to send to hell.”

The Son of God became a man to enable men to become the sons of God.

Simply receive Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord.  That’s all…because CHRIST is ALL.

Sisters and brothers, be continually blessed, and please (above all else) MAKE SURE YOU ARE READY TO MEET OUR SOON COMING KING. Maranatha!
