Colossians 1:21-22 - "You were once alienated and hostile in mind because of evil deeds; God has now reconciled you in the fleshly Body of Christ through His death.."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The "original sin" - this is the only sin that is "contracted" by us. We inherited this because of Adam's disobedience of God's command not to eat the fruit of Tree and Knowledge. And until we are baptized, we would continue to bear this "sin of the fall of man".
And after baptism, and as we grow up and gain intelligence and more choices, God expects us to always be pure. But for most, if not all of us, we failed to achieve this. Men falls again into sin for the second time, the third and so on.
But God would not forsake us again. Time again and again, He would always seek for us, like the lost sheep (Luke 15:1-7). He would unceasingly knock at our hearts, so we may, once and for all, renounce sin and forever follow His command, trust in Him and love Him.
Do you feel lost today? Do you feel yourself to be "dirty" and not worthy of God's grace and mercy? Then, stop worrying and start praying. God is waiting for you, as He already sacrificed His Son so we may all be saved the second time, the third time and so on.
+ Let us pray: Almighty Father, great is Your love that You even sacrificed Your son so we may all be saved. May we forever keep this in our mind and in our hearts. May we forever keep You in our hearts, a we continually go through this journey in life under your protection, love, blessings and mercy. Amen +
