What Does The Path To Salvation Mean For Mankind?

By Lelia Hall


God expects us humans to worship him daily and live in accordance with his principles. However, most individuals search for gratification from earthly things forgetting that the ultimate satisfaction lies in living according to God's ways. Man began leading this kind of life when Adam and Eve fell into sin; therefore he created a path to salvation to get humans back to his ways.

According to the word of God, man has to be born again to go to heaven. Jesus said that, for anyone to get to the Father, they had to go through him first. When Nicodemus sought Jesus' answers on being born again, he told him that he had to be born again so as to see God's kingdom. Through salvation, man can reconcile with God.

The Bible says that accepting Jesus requires one acknowledge their sinful nature and be ready to follow him. All men are guilty of sin because we have fallen short below the Glory of God. Therefore, he sent Jesus to be our advocate and redeem us from the bondage of sin.

When we decide to live a life that pleases and satisfies our sinful desires we will be condemned to death. It is because sin puts a separation between us and God. Hence, we are destined to hell. However, when we get saved, we will enjoy eternal life with God. But the Bible gives hope to the human race by providing his only son Jesus Christ to come and die for our sins so that we will inherit His Kingdom.

The Bible says that God gave his only son so that he could save man from the bondage of sin that had taken over the man. In the olden days before the coming of Jesus Christ, lambs and another animal blood was offered as atonement for our sins. But that has since changed because at the cross it was finished by Jesus. Jesus had to be killed and shed his blood to restore the broken relationship between God and man.

Salvation is a clear testimony of the love of the Lord to human beings. Deliverance is the best way that man would live a life free from the bondage of sin. We cannot fully understand how God operates, but we know that His love for us is more than anything we can compare by worldly standards. Salvation offers hope in the times of distress. It gives faith to the faithless and restores broken relationships.

Paul, who was one of the greatest apostles, is a beautiful example of how salvation works wonders. He repented of his sins and received deliverance after which he became a great preacher and a missionary in spreading the gospel of salvation. After resurrecting, Jesus gave his disciples a mission to spread the word of God to all corners of the world.

Lastly, it takes one to be cleansed with the blood of Jesus in order to have a fresh relationship with God. With that, we can easily communicate with God through prayer and live an eternal life. We have to accept the fact that we are sinners and surrender ourselves to Jesus.
