CHRIST DIED FOR ALL
“But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.”- Heb. 2:9
Pastor David Dykes said, “In 1963, Robert Sanchez, now the Director of Missions for Southern Baptists in New York City, was a student at Southwestern Theological Seminary in Fort Worth. He happened to be visiting a cemetery that fall and saw a woman sitting all alone weeping so hard her body was shaking. He walked over to her and with reluctance put his hand on her shoulder. He said, “Ma’am, I’m a pastor. Is there anything I can do to help?” She looked up at him and she said, “I am the mother of Lee Harvey Oswald. All of America is grieving over the death of President Kennedy. Isn’t there anyone to grieve over the death of my son?” There probably were not many people who grieved over Lee Harvey Oswald’s death, but the point I am trying to make is why do you think that mother was grieving? Because she loved him, and what he did hurt her and broke her heart. The good news is the Holy Spirit of God in you loves you! And the reason he grieves over your sin is because he loves you and he wants the very best for you.”
This ought to serve as a reminder to us that regardless of how evil a person is God loves them and would save them if they received the Lord Jesus Christ as their Savior.Keep that in mind as you deal with unsaved people.Speak the truth to them in love and pray for their salvation.- HDS
