Be reconciled to God: A Letter of Love.

From: An Ambassador for Christ who has the ministry of reconciliation.

 

To: Precious Secondary school students

On behalf of: God, Your Creator.

Subject: Restoration to the Purpose for Which He Created You - That our lives might glorify Him.

First, when God created man - He saw that everything He made was good. He was pleased, and it glorified Him.

Inside-out, man was pleasing to God, His Maker. Man enjoyed unlimited access to God's presence.

Down the line, something separated us from God, we need to be reconciled to God. What separated us, and why do we need reconciliation?

1. We are sinful by nature, and sin displeases God.

Sin entered into the world.

Sin is disobedience to God's uprigh commands.

It is a nature we have, that goes against everything God stands for.

No one needs to train us to sin: we sin because we are sinners.

It's true that our peers can influence us to sin, but sin is mainly inborn.

Ps.51.5 For I was born a sinner--yes, from the moment my mother conceived me. 

2. Sin keeps us under God's anger, both now and after death.

God is just and will actually punish every sinful deed.

Separation from God, and eternal torment, is the end result of a man's sinful actions.

Presently, every sinner is separated from God and cannot truly reach Him.

But beyond now, the destination we have earned for our sins, is the lake of fire, where one will suffer judgment for every sin.

3. Because of God's mercy, He has provided for us to be reconciled to Him: through the work of His Son Jesus Christ.

Jesus Christ came as a sinless man, though being God, to pay the painful price of death for all our sins.

Through His death, our offences are blotted out.

He also resurrected us to justify us before God.

His great work on the cross is what brings you peace with God, Your Creator.

His work will save every man who believes from the eternal wrath of God.

We at Prime project have all been reconciled to God; we have all been saved from our sins. And we no longer have God's impending judgment upon us.

Instead, we have a beautiful hope of eternal life with Him, not eternal death.

And we plead with you, secondary school student, be reconciled to God now - through Jesus Christ! Ask Him to forgive your sins, and make you a new creature.

Then, true life will begin for you, in which you can now relate with God as child with Father. Congratulations! Let us know about your joy and testimony in the comments.
