Daily Devotional: The Evidence Is Clear | 2 Corinthians 5:18 |

Imagine being found guilty of a crime and incarcerated and then years later being declared innocent based on new evidence. Can you imagine the relief of finally being freed, your name cleared and with the opportunity for a new life, in contrast, consider the fear that remains for those who are imprisoned unjustly or the painful guilt and hopelessness of those who remain imprisoned for crimes they have committed? In 2 Corinthians 5, the great teacher Paul submits to his listeners that christ paid the price for all of humanity's sin. All crimes and his death have commuted the final sentence of death and destruction due all of humanity. God has, through Jesus, laid aside all the punishment that his holiness and justice demand because of sin.

 

Because we know that all humankind has sinned and fallen short of God's glory and that the wages or payment for sin is spiritual death, but the free gift from God is eternal life through Jesus christ. For all who receive this gift. 

 

Paul wrote 

 

“all this is from god, who reconciled us to himself through christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation.”

 

If it were not for christ paying the ultimate price for our sins, we would all face eternal punishment. But God offers us freedom in a new relationship with him, so we too, in receiving Jesus, have been set free and are called to share the good news with everyone that there are forgiveness and hope for new life. The evidence is clear,  Christ's death brings us peace with Gd. He wants us to be with him.
