The Bible says, "Come near to God and He will come near to you." (James 4:8)
Everybody wants saved from Hell, everybody wants eternal life, everybody wants freedom, everybody wants what Christ so freely offers yet so little really want to live life "Pressing In" as close to the Savior as possible! It's interesting to me how people come up with all different ways of being saved from sin, being a Christian, being set free, yet there is only one way to have life abundantly and eternally. We don't receive life by being a good person, we aren't welcomed into the gates of Heaven because we came up with our own plan of having freedom without following Gods agenda! LIFE, Salvation, Freedom, Heaven, only belong to those who confess with their mouth and believe in their heart that Jesus Christ is Lord! Only Jesus saves, only Jesus sets us free, only Jesus can redeem us, only Jesus can give us the victory every single day to live life to the full with Christ as our master instead of sin! The Bible tells us, "For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that who ever believes in Him will not perish but will have everlasting life." (John 3:16) Jesus loved us so much, the world, that we died on a cross, a brutal death, in order to set us free from sins grip on our lives! Why then would we not want to PRESS IN as close as possible to the one who gave His life, so that we might live? Jesus loves you right now, where you, with what you have! Press in as close to Jesus and watch your life become daily transformed! PRESSING IN!
