Peace with God? How?

 Great news today, right this second, is that God is at peace with all things, all His creation, things visible or invisible, things on earth or things in heaven. He reconciled (settled the conflict) between Him and His whole creation. He is at peace with the entire universe and the invisble realm He created.

Wowwww. How is this possible? The blood of Jesus Christ shed on the cross.

Colossians 1:19-20 NIV

[19] For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him, [20] and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross.

Nobody else has done this or could do this in all of the universe's history. See why the gospel of Jesus Christ really is the good news of all time? See why Jesus is the only way to get to God?

His blood shed on the cross made it possible for God to be at peace with His creation, which includes you and me. 

He's not mad at us or at anything in the universe. He is at peace. 

Jesus' blood made a way for us to be made right with God which is called righteousness. God loves us that much!!!

He made a way for us to get to Him. He made a way for us to live with Him forever. How? By faith in Jesus Christ and his blood shed on the cross. 

Sin is forgiven, we are made right with God, we are justified, we are free from being convicted of sin,we have peace with God, we are adopted into the eternal family of God, the Holy Spirit comes and lives inside us; being our Helper, we receive God's gift of eternal life, and all because of the shed blood of Jesus when He died on the cross.The shed blood of Jesus Christ is the single most important thing in the whole of all creation.

So what does this mean for mankind? Since all are at peace with God, then all can be made right with God. All can have right standing with God or the "righteousness of God." Simply? We can all go to heaven someday. How? BY FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST. That's the only way. His blood shed on the cross made this possible. Below look at verses 22-24

Romans 3: 21-26 NIV

[21] But now apart from the law the righteousness of God has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. 

[22] This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference between Jew and Gentile, [23] for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, [24] and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. 

[25] God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement, through the shedding of his blood—to be received by faith.

He did this to demonstrate his righteousness, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished— [26] he did it to demonstrate his righteousness at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus.

-All can put their faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ on the cross and trust God at His Word, knowing they are at peace with God and have the gift of eternal life through Jesus Christ.

Believe in Jesus Christ and His finished work and you will be saved. You can take advantage of the love and peace of God through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Romans 5:1 NIV

[1] Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, 

The blood of Jesus shed on the cross is the greatest news ever realized in the whole of creation seen or unseen. Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No man comes to the Father but by me." Now we know why.

Come to Jesus Christ and be saved today!!!
