The Bible says that "For Christ had suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened in the Spirit." God, the Almighty Creator, our heavenly Father, who loves us very much, realized that, the Devil is using thee flesh to destroy the children. In order to save his children, he had to put to death the flesh and that was exactly what Christ did. Tbe Bible says that, "For as by one man's disobedience, many were made sinners, so also by one man many shall be made righteous. Satan was able to deceive man through the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes and the pride of life. "Every man is tempted when he is drawn away with is own lust, and enticed, then when lust has conceived, it brings forth sin and when sin is finished bring forth death." Lust, the bible says is of the devil "Ye are of your father the devil, and the lust of your father ye will do." The message Christ's death on the cross is giving us is that, "Love not the world, neither the things that are inthe world. If a man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is inthe world; the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes and the pride of life is not of the Father but of the world and the world passes away and the lust thereof, but he that does the will of God abides forever." |
