IMPACT Johnny Ramsey Let us notice several key points that Jesus contributes to our sojourn upon the earth (1 Peter 2:11) that we would otherwise be bereft of had He not come. 1. All Spiritual Blessings Ephesians 1:3 2. The New And Living WayHebrews 10:20 3. Our Perfect Example Hebrews 4:15 4. Sin Clearly Defined John 15:22 5. Salvation Absolutely Hebrews 7:25 6. Satan Defeated John 12:31-33 7. Heaven AccessibleHebrews 6:18-20 8. Sinners Made Saints 1 timothy 1:15 9. Gods Grace In Us 1 Corinthians 15:10 10. Someone Who Never Leaves Us Hebrews 13:5-6 When we weave all of this into one fabric of truth we realize that we surely do have life more abundantly as the Master taught in John 10:10. The Psalmist makes a tremendous contribution to this life of thought in the cogent words of Psalm 124. If it had not been the Lord who was on our side our help is in the name of the Lord who made heaven and earth. Living with, for and in Christ Jesus is truly what life is all about. How vain would the struggles be if our Savior had not come. Two centuries ago Thomas Gray wrote of folk with obscure destiny in the short and simple annals of the poor. Millions life and die that way outside of the Savior without hope in this world or the one to come (Ephesians 2:11-12). Christians should praise God every single day for purpose, depth, richness and meaning in lives that bask in the sunlight found in the shadow of the Cross!
