our reason to rejoice

"......And they also put Him to death by hanging Him on a cross.
God raised Him up on the third day,
and granted that He should become visible,
not to all the people,
but to witnesses who were chosen beforehand by God,
that is, to us,
who ate and drank with Him after He arose from the dead.

and He ordered us to preach to the people,
and solemnly to testify that this is the One who has been appointed by God
as Judge of the living and the dead.

Of Him all the prophets bear witness
that through His name
everyone who believes in Him receives forgiveness of sins" Acts 13: 39~43

God is Holy.
We are sinners.
We can only come to God through Jesus Christ who was punished for our sins.

"I (Jesus) am the way, and the truth, and the life;
No one comes to God but through Me." John 14:6

If you read this and don't understand, don't despair.
I have been at that same place in my life.
Just keep reading and asking God for wisdom and understanding.
He will bless that humble prayer.
