THE BLOOD OF JESUS (2): WHAT KIND OF EVENT CAN WE DO TO PLEASE GOD?

Our topic for today is what kind of event can we do to please God? According to my understanding, the answer is NOTHING! Our good deeds or sacrifices or offerings or even our religion, nor of them can please God. Why so?

Beginning with the very first Scripture, Genesis 1:1, where it says “In the beginning God …”, it indicates everything must come from God Himself. He is the one who creates us. All events on earth and sky may happen under His permission. He is the One who sent us out from the Garden of Eden, and He must also be the One who calls us back to Him! It’s nothing but Him.

Thus, what can we do to please God, so we can be saved and accepted to Him? According to Himself, there is only one Way and He has provided already for us as a FREE gift. We may please Him through our faith in His own Son, Jesus.

‘You were saved by faith in God, who treats us much better that we deserve. This is God’s gift to you, and not anything you have done on your own.’ (Ephesians 2:8)

‘By faith we have been made acceptable to God. And now, because of Lord Jesus Christ, we live at peace with God.’ (Romans 5:1)

All we can do is to say 'Yes Lord, I'll follow to your call'. Thank you, Jesus!
