Jesus is enough…

Colossians 1:13-17: 13 For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves,14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.

The Supremacy of the Son of God

15 The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. 17 He is before all things, and in him, all things hold together.

The Chinese character for “come” is mostly the image of the cross.

The Cross of Christ is where all of our needs and our sins are taken care of. God has provided everything that we need through our Savior. No profession nor amount of money can provide the assurance of your eternity. Jesus can. God gives you the faith to believe in Jesus for your salvation but if you won’t accept His gift of salvation…it will not do you any good.

People have wondered for years if you or I can refuse to accept salvation through Jesus. If it is a calling from God that you accept Him as your Savior, you will accept it. Some people walk to the altar because they feel that they need salvation and they do, but if it is only your decision and not a calling from God then it is useless. Many people, religious people, have this kind of “salvation”. Even some preachers have said that they have gone through seminary training and preached for years before finally accepting Jesus as their Savior.

God’s call is His choosing of you to be His and a part of His family! He gives us the air we breathe and all of the food that we have access to. If it wasn’t for His provision, we would not be alive! He created everything that is on this planet and in the entire universe. Even scientists are admitting that some of their theories of creation are wrong. God is everywhere and He is our Creator. There was no accident or “something just happened” to bring chemicals together to make our DNA. Creation doesn’t work that way.

God is preexistent, meaning that He was before everything. He knew you and me long before there was anything because He isn’t bound by time like we are. Life would not exist in all of its wonderful forms if God had not created it. There are life forms found under the ice in Antarctica that science can’t place anywhere. They have no idea what some of them are, yet they are alive. I believe God put them there just for that purpose, to give our scientists something to ponder.

God also spread out the universe itself in ways that the James Webb telescope is showing to astronomers today and they can’t explain it. There are galaxies that they have found that are completely formed but according to the “laws” of physics they shouldn’t have been able to be formed that early in the universe. God did this specifically to give them something to ponder as well. Many of them are saying that some textbooks may have to be rewritten.

There is even one galaxy that looks like a question mark. Another one of those findings that the James Webb Space Telescope has found that astronomers can’t really explain. Some of the “explanations” say that two galaxies are colliding with each other and formed this image. Maybe. I like to think that God is having fun with our scientists and put this out there just to make them scratch their heads.
