Why Do We Deserve To Be Saved?
Scripture is the only thing that shows us how much work was done for us to be reconciled with Him. It is further emphasized with the truth of the cross, that He was willing to give us Jesus for us to have a hope and a future.
Job 9:29 - If I be wicked, why then labour I in vain? In this context, Job was talking about God and himself. The numbers are in the context of him sending messengers of truth “9”, showing us “2” that God is reaching down “9” to us.
God is a perfect being and, in certain ways, does not really need us. Why then does He still allow us to live, given that all we do in the world that He created is give Him and disobey Him? If God then is undeniable truth, why then can’t we believe Him? Is it because we think that our way is better? Is it because we cannot let go of certain things in our life? Is the way that the world built around us hindering us from choosing Him? Is the only way that His way works is for us to drag Him into the same scummy world that we live in? For Him to know what it is like to live in His own creation? Does He not know? Does He not care about our woes, pain, and problems?
Yet He continues to work, to pave a way to lead us back to Him. His path of salvation, to pull those who would choose to walk His way and believe in the same words that Jesus has mentioned in scripture, which is to love God and love others the same way that we love ourselves. Do we really need complex formulas in order to make us believe God’s labour here on earth? Just ask yourself, is there any other planet that has life within our solar system? The one thing that I am sure of is that this world is only possible because of Him, and He worked and continues to work just to have a chance for Him to know You and be reconciled with us.
