broken chain
“For since our friendship with God was restored by the death of his Son while we were still his enemies, we will certainly be saved through the life of his Son.” -Romans 5:10
“He died for everyone so that those who receive his new life will no longer live for themselves. Instead, they will live for Christ, who died and was raised for them.” -2 Corinthians 5:15
Our chains are gone, and we’ve been set free. We’ve been bought with a high price; That price being Christ dying on the cross, shedding His blood for us. Since Christ made the ultimate sacrifice, His sacrifice is infinitely greater than any sacrifice or offering ever made. Before God, we stand redeemed, are reconciled to, and restored by God.
After all the Lord has done, our response can only be, “Thank You, Lord, for setting me free to live for You. I’m Yours, O Lord. Do with me as You will.”

CALVARY’S LOVE
Written By Linda A. Knowles
I look up to see
Calvary’s Love
Upon The Old Rugged Cross
Telling of Redemption’s Story
of Jesus the Christ
And the price He paid
Badly beaten
Then crucified
And being wounded for our transgressions
Bruised for our iniquities
By whose stripes we are healed
And as I look upon the Old Rugged Cross
My Savior is no longer there
For He rose up from the dead
With glorious resurrection power
Conquering death, hell, and the grave
My Triumphant Savior and Lord
The God of Victory
“…if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved.”
Romans 10:9-10 (ESV)
“The message of the cross is foolish to those who are headed for destruction! But we who are being saved know it is the very power of God.”
1 Corinthians 1:18 (NLT)
