Opis

JESUS PLUS NOTHING is another way of saying JESUS ONLY. This is a devotional book that discusses some of the main salvation ideas. Too often the gospel of righteousness by faith is missing in church sermons, and yet it is the subject Christians and non-Christians most need to hear about. When Adam and Eve were in the Garden of Eve, they sinned against God and led the whole world into rebellion. We are subsequently all born sinners. Sin, transgression, iniquity are different terms for wrong doing, and vary in meaning from 'missing the mark' and 'falling short of God's righteousness' to blatantly breaking God's law. In God's sight we are all level on Judgement Day. In the Old Testament God made covenants with various individuals-Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, David, Solomon and also with the nation Israel. The prophet Jeremiah predicted the day would come when God would make a new covenant. This covenant was made with the sinless Christ. During the Lord's Supper, Christ told that the bread represented his body that would be given for us, and the wine represented the blood of his covenant. Through Christ's life and death God could show his steadfast love (grace and mercy) towards sinners. Christ lived a sinless life and died an atoning death (which the Reformers saw as the passive and active sides of salvation). Both of these are placed to the account of the one who believes in Christ's finished work for him.
