John 10:7-10
Jesus Came to Help Us Live Life Abundantly
7 Therefore Jesus said again, “Very truly I tell you, I am the gate for the sheep. 8 All who have come before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep have not listened to them. 9 I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. They will come in and go out, and find pasture. 10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
Jesus did not die for our sins so that we could and would go on and continue sinning each and everyday...I believe He wants us to quit sinning, but He knows of our sinful nature, and how we are flawed...He did die for our sins, but He wants us to do better, be morally better, and to love God and to be kinder to our neighbor...
When we sin less, we can live a fuller, more abundant life and be closer to Him...So Jesus did not die on the cross so that we die in our sins, He died so that we would follow His ways and live an earthly life to the full - to live our lives more abundantly...
