Reader......
To be reconciled to God, has to be based on God.
Why?
Because its God who requires it, and so, its God who came down here and became Christ on The Cross to provide to the world what HE REQUIRES so that anyone and everyone can become reconciled to Him....= ""The Gift of Salvation"".
God became one of us so that He can offer eternal righteousness and eternal forgiveness and eternal life to all of us.....as a "GIFT".
""""The Gift of Salvation.""""
How do we go to heaven?
We go by meeting God's requirement.
And what is it?
Jesus said.....>"you must be born again".. and what does that provide ??? It provides to you to become "made righteous".. so that by this righteousness you are allowed to exist where God exists, as there is no sin found there.. only RIGHTEOUSNESS.
Reader, we can't do this for ourselves. WE can't eternally take care of our own sin, and until this is eternally resolved, then we are LOST and Separated from God.
Solution?
God came down here to provide us with a holy life, in place of our sinful one.
God came here to provide us with His very own righteousness, in place of our sinful unrighteousness.
The verse says...>"""For God hath made Jesus to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we (you and me)... might be made the righteousness of God in Him.""""
Look closely reader..
"God made CHRIST.""....This is GOD as the man Jesus...... """to BE SIN......for us"".
Look at that.. That is GOD becoming our SIN on the Cross.....and by this we who BELIEVE Become. = ""made the righteousness of GOD"..
See that?
Notice that Jesus became your sin, and you became "RIGHTEOUS"... if you are born again and not just water baptized.
This is SALVATiON.....Its the ""GIFT of SALVATiON".....and the "GIFT of Righteousness"..
What is this?
Its God as Christ becoming your entire sinful life, and DYING, as the punishment do you for your sinful life.
And what do you become, because of this REDEMPTION?.... You become, as born again, the holy Life that God lived as Christ, as if you lived it, always and forever.
"as Christ IS.......so are the born again....in this world"...
See that???
That is SALVATION.
That is what it means to be SAVED and "made righteous"...BY.."the gift of righteousness", and "the gift of Salvation".
