20/20 Focus on JESUS

20/20 Focus on JESUS
Each day we need to keep our eyes focused on JESUS - 20/20! I am sorry that I did not continue this blog into the beginning of 2021. Nine months passed by before I was convicted to return to this blog and encourage us to look at JESUS, with clear vision, via a daily scripture reading. Yellow highlights are names/descriptions of JESUS that we'll add to the list on the right.

2020 for JESUS - Day 56: JESUS is LOVE... JESUS bears all things...


From Day 46 to Day 60 of 2020,  
please join us in taking 
The LOVE Challenge - GOD's WAY!

The Bible shares the definition of GOD's AGAPE LOVE in 1 Corinthians 13.
Throughout the Bible, the illustration of this AGAPE LOVE iJESUS.

So, each day from February 15-29, 
let's plan to take a principle of AGAPE LOVE
and then look at something from JESUS' life, 
here on earth, that illustrates it.

JESUS lived HIS LIFE bearing much... all things...

JESUS lived HIS LIFE 
choosing that no matter how tough things were, 
HE would not sin!

JESUS died, bearing all our sins!  

So, as the apostle Paul says, in 2 Corinthians 5:

13- "If we are 'out of our mind,' as some say, it is for GOD; if we are in our right mind, it is for you.

14- For CHRIST's LOVE compels us, because we are convinced that ONE died for all, and therefore all died.  

15-  And HE died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for HIM WHO died for them and was raised again.

16- So from now on we regard no one from a worldly point of view.  Though we once regarded CHRIST in this way,  we do do no longer.

17-  Therefore, if anyone is in CHRIST, the new creation has come:  The old has gone, the new is here!

18-  All this is from GOD, WHO reconciled us to HIMSELF through CHRIST and gave us the ministry of reconciliation:

19-  that GOD was reconciling the world to HIMSELF in CHRIST, not counting people's sins against them.  And HE has committed to us the message of reconciliation.

20-  We are therefore CHRIST's ambassadors, as though GOD were making HIS appeal through us.  We implore you on CHRIST's behalf:  Be reconciled to GOD.  GOD made HIM WHO had no sin to be sin for us, so that in HIM we might become the righteousness of GOD."
