Steps to Christ

Yesterday as I was about to leave the house for work, Pastor B teased me, "Oh, you have to go to work huh? ..can't just relax all day like before." The thought came to mind [after the fall], women must experience much pain during conception and men must work hard to make a living. So I said to him, "Because of one man, Pastor.. we must work hard." :)

"In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it was thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return." Genesis 3:19

But the price had been paid. It was paid in full by the second Adam, Immanuel (God with us), Michael (who is like unto God?), Jeshua, Jesus.

"If you give yourself to Him, and accept Him as your Saviour, then, sinful as your life may have been, for His sake you are accounted righteous. Christ’s character stands in place of your character, and you are accepted before God just as if you had not sinned." SC 62.2

"Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned." Romans 5:12

"Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life." verse 18
