GALATIANS 1:4
"Jesus gave His life for our sins, just as God our FATHER PLANNED, in order to save us from this evil world in which we live."
Why are we here? What is our purpose? What is life all about? What is the plan for our life and this earth? These questions have been asked since the beginning of man's time on earth. The plan was not revealed to man until the coming of Jesus Christ. That does not mean that the plan was not made or known from the beginning. On the contrary the truth for today tells us that God the Father had a plan that was from the beginning. The plan was to save men from their sin and save them from this evil world.
Jesus Christ is the Lord God and His plan was to yield Himself up to atone for our sins. Jesus plan was to save us and sanctify us. He did this in order to rescue us and deliver us from this present wicked and evil world. This was in accordance with His will and purpose. Jesus gave His live for our sins. That is the plan of God the Father and the Holy Spirit. God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that who ever would believe in Him would not perish but would be saved. This plan is still in progress to this day. It will remain in progress until the Lord comes again.
Now comes the part that each of us has to play in this plan of God. Do you believe that Jesus Christ is the Lord God and that He is the only one that can save you from this evil world? Have you opened the door to your heart and asked the Lord to come in and dwell with you? Have you been born again, in the spirit and the truth? Are you secure in the knowledge that Jesus Christ is your Saviour and that He will never leave you or desert you? Are you a part of the Father's plan of redemption and salvation? If you say no, then without making the right choice you have chosen to reject Jesus Christ and your decision still makes you a part of the Father's plan, only you have chosen a different ending and destination, one that is just.
