God - I Failed, But Jesus Came

Why do Christians make so many mistakes? More specifically, my own people, Protestant and Wesleyan, seem to have committed the most sins? The big scripture hinge states: If we sin, we have an advocate with the Father, the same Jesus Christ. All we have to do, 'if' we sin, is confess our sin and Our Lord Jesus is faithful to forgive us our sin and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

Our Savior Jesus Christ is God the Son and perfect in love and justice. He is the God who we, as fallen people, so desperately need. We as Christians know we have sinned and need a Savior higher, more powerful than humanity. We go to church because we need the prayers of others to honor God and humanity. We pray constantly because we are fully aware of the Perfect Mercy and Love of God on our souls. 


Yes, the church is full of hypocrites, and we church members know it...because we are the hypocrites who want to follow Jesus. We know by faith that Jesus wants us in His Life and He loves us perfectly. We know we are loved by the Perfect Benevolent Creator; Jesus loves us so much He died for us, rose from the dead, and lives forever to love us even though we need Him so desperately. Jesus always tells us to 'come to Him, we who are tired, and He gives perfect rest.' 


We are fallen people who trust, believe, hope, and rest in our Lord Jesus. Our Lord Jesus Loves me perfectly and He will help me love God and humanity.


I have sinned and deserve every evil consequence, but Jesus came.
