About this Episode
Join me, Alison Elizabeth as we start ADVENT 2020. Today we are reading out of Romans 5:8 which says "But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us."
"Just for five minutes a day let’s forget about the chaos that comes with the mall in this season, and let’s remember his never ending love.
The Bible repeats how much he loves us, so many times. Today’s verse reminds us that while we were still sinners Christ died of us. Sinner gets such a tainted view that you read that word, and you feel distant from it. You can’t see yourself as a “sinner” because you don’t cheat or kill or steal. But your greed, selfishness, and addictions to worldly things is what makes you fall short of perfection. Christ saw that in us, and he saw that in you and he said you were worth dying for.
In 1 John 4:9 it says 9 This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.
Jesus gave us life through him. That nothing may be weighed over our heads. He took that to the grave. This is the person we celebrate this season. The man that gave us the freedom we live in today. Thank you Jesus!"
