“Which in time past we were not a people, but are now the people of God; which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.” Illegal aliens are in the news all the time! Whether they be on our southern border or from space! We all began life as illegal aliens! We were created by God yet opposed him as an enemy! By rejecting him we lost all rights and benefits! We had no borders on our moral behavior and no limits on the evil we could do! We by our own efforts tried to break into the Kingdom of God! Our sin kept us out! We made God in our own image with millions of idols which separated us further from him! To correct one sin we did another sin! We needed mercy but we lived in judgment! We wanted to be citizens of Heaven but became aliens from the Commonwealth of Israel! We found it impossible to cross the border into Heaven! No matter how hard we tried nothing seemed to work? Mercy is a gift from God that we cannot earn! If we could earn this gift it would not be from God! God took your illegal sin upon himself and paid the legal price to redeem you from your sin by paying the penalty of death! After Christ on the Cross you are a legalized citizen in Heaven! A place is reserved for you there! A Cross was placed across the border as a bridge to Heaven! Before Christ all you could do was build a shortcut to Hell! You are now the people of God washed in his blood! Resurrected from the dead! Remember God’s same miracle power that gave you the gift of redemption is the same power that will one day raise you from the dead! If you will let God do it his way and abandon your old ways deliverance will come to you! No more celebrating death like in Halloween but celebrating life! Your immigration has to be legal! Some will migrate to Heaven and some to Hell! How long will your visa last in Heaven? Forever! You do not have to renew it! Is your name written in the Book of Life or has it been blotted out? It depends on whether you have accepted or rejected God’s mercy! You decide your final destination! Trust men or God? A fool says in his heart there is no God! Eternity is for keeps! Acknowledge his mercy or face his judgment! Man is destroying the planet but God has saved it! Saved the planet because he has saved you! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
