David Jeremiah Daily Devotional for Today 7th August 2024
It is often said that Christianity is different from all the world’s religions in one critical regard. All the other religions are man’s attempt to reach God, whereas Christianity consists of God reaching out to man. In religion, man is reaching up to heaven to find God. In Christianity, God is reaching down to earth to find man.
What is the basis for this distinction? It is found in Ephesians 2:1: “And you He made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins.” First, mankind is spiritually dead apart from Christ.
Spiritually dead people have no interest in seeking after the one, true God or the ability to understand spiritual truth (Romans 3:10-18). Second, God took the initiative in imparting life to spiritually dead people. Without God taking that initiative, we would have remained spiritually dead in our sins. We have been saved by grace, not by our own religious efforts to be approved by God (Ephesians 2:8-9).
If you belong to Christ, you are no longer what you once were thanks to the regenerating power of the Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:11). Thank Him for the new life you have received by grace.
Unless you live in Christ, you are dead to God.
Read-Thru-the-Bible: Jeremiah 12 – 14
