My Bridge

"Be sure to bury him that same day, because anyone who is hung on a tree is under God's curse..." - Deuteronomy 21:23b

I want to introduce you guys to "Bridge to life" by Gospel Graffiti. You can read more about them by going to their website GGcrew.com The video can be viewed here.

Yes it is true. Sin opened a void between us and the Father. Yep. Eve ate the fruit. Cain killed Abel... the list goes on and on. We are imperfect. We sin. BUT God had a plan. He hasn't nor will he ever give up on us. He will never turn from us. We have sinned against God in every way shape and form. World Wars, death, destruction and sadness fill the news. But God will not give up.

God's plan was a great one: "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." John 3:16 Jesus died on the cross for my sin, for your sin, for the world's sin.

You may wonder why I started this post with a verse from Deuteronomy. Well Deuteronomy is a book of Law. It's in the Old Testament (before Jesus) However, it applied very much to the life of Jesus. "Anyone who is hung on a tree is under God's curse." Jesus was hung on the wood of a tree, on the crucifix and suffered one of the slowest and most agonising deaths. He suffered the curse and the wrath of God. But it wasn't for his sins he was hung, it was for mine. Jesus is the "Bridge to life." Let's cross that bridge together... I dare you.

Your's in Christ,

Andrea :)
