Resurrection Life Church
Jesus Christ is not a religious figure, or just a christian icon. He is God come in the flesh. But why did He think it was imperative that He come to earth as a man? Was it because Adam and Eve messed things up so bad that we couldn't fix it? Was it because He wanted revenge on mankind for destroying what He had created. No, no, no! He came so that He could make all things new and that most importantly included us, mankind. If we are in Christ we are a new creation and the old things are gone. He has come to make you new!
Revelation 21:3-7 NKJV
Cars:
· They started out so beautiful and crafted
· So much potential
· Long life ahead of them
· They had hope
Now there is no hope
· Can’t fix themselves
· Crashed into other cars
· Crashed into other things
· Abuse and neglected
· Wore out and faded
· Stuck in a junkyard of other broken cars
A great picture of people
· Crashed by other broken people
· Crushed and bruised by our bad choices
· Broken from abuse and neglect
· Sick of this life, tired and trapped
· See no hope when you look around
