Now You Know

“The next day John saw Jesus coming to him and said, Look! There is the Lamb of God, Who takes away the sin of the world!” John the baptist noticed Jesus approaching him to be baptized. Jesus went through the normal channels to set the example for us to follow. He was baptized by John even though John told Jesus, I’m not worthy to tie your shoes. Jesus said, we must fulfill all manner of righteousness. Jesus had to come the same way we must come to be right with God. To be baptized is an outward expression of what happened to you spiritually. Death, burial and resurrection. We go down under the water when baptized, which exemplifies the death and burial of Jesus Christ, and then we are pulled up out of the water exemplifying Jesus being raised from the dead, which now you have been through water baptism. All things have become new, and old things have passed away. Your new recreated human spirit is then sinless, and you are in right standing with God. But the sin had to be dealt with first, thus the Lamb of God, the perfect sacrifice. Jesus has taken away the sin of the entire world, but because mankind has free will not everyone chooses Christ. God said, my people are destroyed from lack of knowledge. This world system is designed to keep us so busy, and distracted from the things of God that most people will miss this message, die and go straight to hell when it’s all over, which is very soon. Look around you in this world, it’s falling apart, so the Lord can fall into place in your life if you let Him, because the time is short. Jesus will return for those who have chosen Him before their body dies. Now you know.
