All sufficiency for all Eternity!!!
All sufficiency for all Eternity!!!
To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood, 6 and has made us to be a kingdom and priests to serve his God and Father—to him be glory and power for ever and ever! Amen. Revelation 1:5-6
7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all[b] sin. I John 1:7
There is a fountain that will never run Dry, for all eternity! Indeed it is Christ's shed blood, and to drink from this fountain means I am cleansed and set free from my sins. It is such a cleansing fountain, that I can walk in a robe of white, that may Saviour provided for me!
Indeed, there is no other way! Jesus said it, I am the way the Truth and the Life, no one can come to the Father except through me" John 14:1, and no one can get rid of their sins except through Christ's Shed Blood and His Shed Blood Alone! His Blood Paid my Ransom in full; It was enough and sufficient for my life, and not only my life, but for every Child of God who has been granted Faith to believe in Him--All sufficiency for all Eternity!!! no matter the effort or great works that you do, you will always fall short of God's Glory. You cannot add to what He has done! Charles Spurgeon: "Either He bore all our sins, or none; and He either saves us once for all, or not at all."
I rest my case in the Eternal Son of GOD,in Him alone! there is no one else that will ever do!
The Fading Glory of Man Isaiah 40:6-8
The Fading Glory of Man:
Man’s glory is like the flowers of the field; their glory fades in the changing of the seasons. Their victories, their fame, their fortunes, their award ceremonies all fade into the back ground of black and white, of faded print and picture. The colors of the picture dimly shine and the print fades to white and gets drowned out in white, till you can barely see the once was: fame and glory.
A voice says, “Cry out.”
And I said, “What shall I cry?”
“All men are like grass,
and all their glory is like the flowers of the field.
7 The grass withers and the flowers fall,
because the breath of the LORD blows on them.
Surely the people are grass.
8 The grass withers and the flowers fall,
but the word of our God stands forever.” Isaiah 40:6-8

He was Scarred for All Eternity, while I walk without Scars!John 20:27 Philippians 3:20-21
For All Eternity He Chose to bear the Marks of My Redemption In His Glorified Body!
Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe.” John 20:27
But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, 21 who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body. Philippians 3:20-21
I am broken with tears welling in my eyes! He will transform my lowly body to be like His glorious body—yet there is one difference, Jesus’ glorified body bears the marks of my redemption in His shed blood, His nail scarred hand and feet, His pierced side; just think, for all eternity I will be in the light of His joy in perfection and Holiness, and Christ for All eternity will have in His body the marks of my salvation. God the Son will have a scarred glorified body, but it will be scarred on my behalf for my Salvation, His hands, His feet and His pierced side—I cannot comprehend such unselfish love. I am undeserving of being transformed into the likeness of His glorified body, humbled and broken for all eternity that Christ should choose to have His glorified body scarred for all eternity--Incomprehensible! Humbling! Undeserving! Yet the Eternal Son of God in His Great Love for me, Chose to have His Glorified body Scarred for all Eternity, while I walk without Scars!

Moved to Repentance by the promise of God's Grace in Christ alone! Romans 3:19-26
Moved to Repentance by the promise of God's Grace in Christ alone! Romans 3:19-26
.by Joseph Valentini on Tuesday, March 22, 2011 at 12:29am.Moved to Repentance by the promise of God's Grace in Christ alone!
The purpose of the 10 Commandments was to show every person how utterly sinful and helpless we are; if we broke one commandment we broke it all. It was not given to earn our salvation, but it was given to render us helpless to perfectly obey it. Our repentance comes by God’s Grace in Jesus Christ. Romans 3:20 "Therefore no one will be declared righteous in his sight by observing the law; rather, through the law we become conscious of sin."
John Calvin Said regarding the Grace of God and repentance: we are moved to repentance not by the threat of God’s law but by the promise of his grace. The threat of the law will only make us run from God, unless we know that he will receive us when we turn back to him in repentance.
“21 But now righteousness from God, apart from law, has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify.
22 This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference, 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. Romans 3:21-24
