“And no man taketh this honour unto himself,
but he that is called of God, as was Aaron. 5- So also Christ glorified not
himself to be made an high priest; but he that said unto him, Thou art my Son,
today have I begotten thee,” (Hebrews 5:4- 5 KJV)
God Himself called Christ to the tasks. And
that’s the reason why we don’t have to work hard to go to heaven. That’s the
reason why God will not ask us of our religion, or require us of our religious
ritual, because He is our religion. God will not weight the good versus the bad
in us. God will not check our spirituality to see if we’re spiritual enough for
heaven. Christ is the Supreme good and the only good. He is Holy and He is God.
“No one is good but God” the Lord Jesus Christ said, during His encounter with
rich young ruler.
Christ reconciled us to God by His death on
the cross. Notice the writings of Apostle Paul; “Wherefore in all things it
behooved him to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be a merciful and
faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for
the sins of the people.” (Hebrews 2:17 KJV) “For if, when we were enemies, we
were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we
shall be saved by his life.” (Romans 5:10 KJV) “18- And all things are of God,
who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry
of reconciliation; 19- “To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world
unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto
us the word of reconciliation. 20- “Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as
though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye
reconciled to God.” (II Corinthians 5:18- 20 KJV)
