Hello Everyone,

Now for the Good news… Just one look can bring Justification.

The children of Israel in the wilderness were being judged for their sin, griping, murmuring, and lack of faith, and God sent serpents to bite and kill them in judgment.

(NUM. 21:8) But the Lord had Moses fashion a brass serpent on a pole to lift up high, and if only the people would look to that serpent they would live! [The serpent was a picture of Christ made sin for us!]

John 3:14

Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the desert, so the Son of Man must be lifted up,

And all who look to Jesus can live!

- DIDN'T SAY LOOK ON THE POLE.

- DIDN'T SAY LOOK TO MOSES.

- DIDN'T SAY LOOK BACK TO MIRACLE OF THE RED SEA.

You can’t look at the wrong thing…only looking to the serpent would spare their lives. Sadly, today:

- MANY ARE LOOKING TO A CHURCH

- MANY ARE LOOKING TO THE BAPTISTRY

- MANY ARE LOOKING TO THEIR COMMUNION

- MANY ARE LOOKING TO WHAT MOMMA SAID THEY DID

- MANY ARE LOOKING TO A SAINT OR TO MARY

- MANY ARE LOOKING TO THEIR MORALITY

- MANY ARE LOOKING TO THEIR SINCERITY

But they look in the wrong direction unless they look to Jesus!

Hebrews 12:2

Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith…

Oh How HE Loves Us!
