Bridging The Gap

John 5:12-13--- He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.

God did not make us robots to mindless love and serve him. We have free will to decide what to do, say and think. But, like Adam, we often choose to disobey God and go our own way. This part of us is called the old sin nature. Our sin separates from a Holy God who cannot have fellowship with sin because it conflicts with His perfect essence. There is a great big gap that keeps us and our sin away from God. But God made a way for us to come to Him and be cleaned. The Lord Jesus Christ is the answer to our sin problem. He lived a sinless life not being born from a man but born from God the Father. He lived a sinless life and died to pay the penalty of our sin. Jesus bridged the gap between us and God.
