Verse of the Day
for Sunday November 3rd, 2013
For what the law was powerless to
do in that it was weakened by the sinful nature, God did by sending his
own Son in the likeness of sinful man to be a sin offering. And so he
condemned sin in sinful man, in order that the righteous requirements of
the law might be fully met in us, who do not live according to the
sinful nature but according to the Spirit.
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Jesus
did what we could not do; he lived perfectly before God. He showed that
sin isn't a necessity in our lives and that it does not have to hold us
captive. He poured out his Spirit on us so that we could not only share
in his forgiveness and cleansing grace, but also so that we could have
power to live in a way that pleases God. Jesus is our sin offering and
our Savior.
