But Jesus Saved Us

Angel and Mary

“ That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world,” {Ephesians 2 v 12}.


What a sorry picture, but this was the state of us before Jesus saved us. We were living in this world without Christ, we knew nothing about God’s promises in the Bible, we were in a hopeless situation and living without God in our lives. But Jesus saved us…….

The scripture goes on to say in verse 13, “But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.”


We were far from God, living our own lives, and doing whatever we wanted, living lives full of darkness and sin. But Jesus saved us, He died in pain and agony for us on that cross at Calvary, He took away all our sins and washed us clean with His precious blood. And now when God see’s us, He doesn’t see our sins, only the blood of Jesus. We have been forgiven all our sins because of the blood that Jesus shed for us at Calvary.


And now we have a loving heavenly Father who takes care of us and looks after our every need. We have God’s Word the Bible, full of promises for us, helping and guiding us through every situation in life. We have a whole family of Christian brothers and sisters all over the world, to help and encourage us.


And we have life everlasting now and throughout eternity where we will live with Jesus, heirs of the Father and joint heirs with the Son. We have so much to thank and praise our Lord for, He is surely worthy of all honour and glory, praise His Holy name.


“But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.”
