ACCEPTED IN CHRIST JESUS
I
have on few occasions represented my school in certain competitions and my
performance and result became the way my school was rated; if i did well, it
would be said that my school did well and if I failed, it would be said that my
school failed. It didn’t matter how other students were, they were judged on my
basis because I was representing them.
The
high priest is the one who represents the people before God; God judge the
people only by her representative. If the high priest did his part well, the
people would be accepted and blessed and if the high priest didn’t do his work
well, everyone he represents would be deemed failures.
Seeing
then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus
the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. Heb. 4:14
Christ
is our high priest and His work for our total salvation is accepted before God
therefore all who who put their trust in Him and had trust in His redemptive
work on their behalf is thereby accepted before God. We nolonger need to do
anything to be blessed by God because Christ has done everything we’ll need to
do to earn salvation. Lets learn to look onto Jesus, He authors our faith, and
ensures the perfection of it (makes sure our faith gets result).
If
you are in Christ, you are accepted not on your merit but on Christ’s merit,
you’ve achieved every perfection Christ achieved, and you’ve conquered
everything Christ conquered etc. because Christ is your representative.
Christianity
is no longer what we do to get God’s blessings, its faith in what Christ has
done on our behalf. In Christ, we’ve been saved which includes healing,
deliverance, blessed to prosper and all our genuine need has been met.
God
bless you
