We can see an illustration of what Jesus’ death accomplished for us when we put both our hands out in front of us. They are both lit by the light above. But if a large black book is placed above one hand, this hand is now in darkness. This represents our sin. Jesus is represented by the ’sinless’

Third, are we willing to tell others about Jesus no matter what the cost? A recent statistic said 3 out of 4 people had not heard the gospel. Are you committed enough to tell others about what Jesus has done for you? If not, why? Is it shame or are you focused on other things in life. Jesus

Let us only take heed that this office of Christ is not set before us in vain. It will profit us nothing at the last day that Jesus was a Shepherd, if during our lifetime, we never heard His voice and followed Him. If we love life, let us
