Karlyn - Hebrews 9

Happy Thursday everyone!
S- 9:26, 28   Otherwise, He would have needed to suffer often since the foundation of the world; but now once at the consummation of the ages He has been manifested to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself....So Christ also, having been offered once to bear the sins of many....

O - I understand why this is so hard for unbelievers to grasp and to understand.  I also understand that faith comes into play with this too.  There's a lot to take in:  Jesus was the perfect Son of God who came to earth as a baby, lived a perfect life, healed and raised people from the dead, died on a cross, came back alive, rolled a huge stone away, and him dying once took on every sin past present and future of every person from that moment on, and all you have to do is to accept the forgiveness and believe.  WOW.

A - I'm so thankful for the Holy Spirit and that he reveals Jesus to us little by little and calls us to faith.  God is so smart knowing that we would need the Spirit to help us process and have faith!  I'm understanding more and more that's it's not just my actions or what I say to unbelievers but asking the Holy Spirit to work in their lives and give them the faith they need to believe.

P - Thank you Jesus that I don't have to sacrifice animals constantly for my sin!  I can't thank you enough for being willing to take on sin head to head so that I can just come to you and my sin is gone!  Please give me the wisdom in how to pray for those who still need you Lord!
