*Rom.8:32 He who didn't spare his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how would he not also with him freely give us all things?

Has there ever lived a sincere Christian's that has not ask the question can God forgive me for such a great sin? Well, we know all of us have asked that question perhaps more then once in our life's. But as the apostle Paul clearly expresses the same thought in the most positive terms, saying: “What sin can God not forgive, and the proof is, in what God gave us, His own Son's life?

But more is here in Paul's words; he states this gift of life was given us freely. God did not say if you do this or that I will give my Son's life, He did not say if you promise to obey me perfectly I will give my Son's life too you, no! God loved us first while we were yet sinners and provided us the blood of the passover lamb freely. Thus, starting at this point we can rest assured that God will give us all other things we need to have for our eternal life.

How can a person make such as statement in taking God's gift of life for granted? If the gift of life and all other gifts of God were given dependent upon man than it would be taken for granted by sin laws. God meant His legal requirements in the blood which was the precious life of Son Christ Jesus. The gift of Jesus life, was not given because mankind was good enough to have it, no! Instead it was given because mankind had no way out of sin, death, and was unworthy of it. The gift of Jesus life was given us by God, not because we deserved, or by some of our self-goodness, no. But rather it was because of God great goodness towards sinful human's deserving of death.

Romans 5:8 But God commends his own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

Under this legal requirement God could redeem the human race by declaring them guiltless from sin committed against His righteous law. God did not remove the Old Law of Moses based on individual human goodness by good works, no! What God did was remove the law because of Christ Jesus goodness then God covered us our sins by removing the laws condemning us of sin. So by proxy we receive the goodness of Christ Jesus, as God looks at the blood of the passover lamb and passover our deserving death, instead giving us the eternal life of Christ Jesus.

We as humans had nothing to do with this process or the gift, we are not keepers of the gifts of life as many religions teach, that is, determining who should have the gifts of God by conduct justified by their doctrines, no! God did not confer with mankind in offering His gift of life too human race, He did not set up a religion on earth too dole out life by doctrines or interpretation of Christ Jesus precious life's blood. What He did do instead was speak through Jesus Christ the saying of life and those putting faith in Christ Jesus living words would have life.

Thus, it is not up to us to determine by sins law if a person is appreciative enough to have God's gifts of life, and this is why Jesus Christ stated so strongly not to judge! We cannot judge what we did not give, or earn, nor pay for, it is gift freely given from God's love. Moreover, it is a gift that God demanded to meet His legal requirements so He could justify us before His righteous Law that condemned us to death. the Father of this gift of loves has given all of His children the precious gift of His Son's life, and what ever else He chooses too give, is none of our business.

John 4:21 Jesus said to her, "Woman, believe me, the hour comes, when neither in this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, will you worship the Father.

John 4:23 But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshippers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such to be his worshippers.
