There Is Hope For Everyone

Romans 3:23  For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

When you go outside each day and look around, was that day just made specifically for you? No, it wasn’t. God makes each day for everyone on the Earth to enjoy. It doesn’t matter if they are rich or poor. It doesn’t matter if they are bad or good. Male, female, child or adult, God creates each day for everyone, not just a select few.

God treats everyone alike. He does not give preferential treatment to a certain group of people over another. There is no one who is exempt from keeping His commands, and there are none who will escape the punishment for their unrepented-of sins either. There is no respect of persons with God.

Romans 2:1-11  “Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things.

But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things.

And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?

Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?

But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God;

Who will render to every man according to his deeds:

To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:

But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,

Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;

But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:

For there is no respect of persons with God.”

If there is one, single thing that we should all have learned by now it is that we all make mistakes, and there is no one who has kept themselves from sinning at least once in their lifetime. It is that sin, whether it be just one or a thousand, that groups every human on this Earth under the same title: sinner. American, Canadian, English, Russian- it doesn’t matter where you are from, everyone will someday have to give account of their life to the Lord.

Salvation is available. Eternal life is available, not to just one, but all who call upon the name of the Lord. Jesus is offering this gift for free to everyone, all they need to do is come forward and turn away from their sins.

Romans 10:8-13  “But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;

That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.

For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”

So when you look at someone living in their sins, just remember, Jesus died for them too. Jesus loves them too, and He wants them to come to a place of repentance so that they too can be saved. There is hope for everyone. Everyone has the same opportunity to change and live for Christ. Just make certain that you have made yours.

In Christ,

Andrew
