Luke 4:17 And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written, 18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised. 19 To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
It is of critical importance for all to understand what Christ has accomplished for us on Calvary, because the results of His life and death cannot be measured or duplicated by any other mortal. Jesus is the only solution to the human conundrum and even though He often uses human agencies to accomplish good, His work can’t be duplicated or replaced in any way.
Jesus is not to be viewed as one solution amongst many, because those who give their lives entirely to Him are enabled to operate and live their lives on an entirely different plane of existence, than persons who may choose the ways and means provided by man.
This sacred truth must now be made crystal clear, for there are some counterfeits to Christ’s salvation, which have imperceptibly infiltrated the minds of many persons and which must now be seen in stark contrast to what God has done for the human family through Christ, on Calvary.
Luke 4:20 And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him. 21 And he began to say unto them, This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
