The Cure for Spiritual Cancer

But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.  Ephesians 2:13

 

Suppose you had a deadly form of cancer, and one day you discovered a cure for it. Wouldn't you want other people who had that same disease to know what you had learned? Wouldn't you try to point them to the same discovery you had made? I'm sure you would; it would be monstrous to do otherwise.

The Bible teaches that we all have a spiritual cancer--a deadly spiritual disease called sin. Not only does it cripple us right now morallly and spiritually, but it will also destroy us in the future and keep us from the blessings God has for us in Heaven.

Is there any answer to this spiritual cancer? Yes! The answer is Christ, who came "having made peace through the blood of His cross, by Him to reconcile all things unto Himself" (Colossians 1:20).

Show that you care about your friends by letting them know that you've found the cure for our spiritual cancer. Who in your life needs to know that good news today?
