Every single one of us deserves to have the wrath of God poured out on us because of our sins.  But God wants to save us and reconcile us back to Himself.  This is our dilemma, God’s wrath demands our eternal punishment, but God’s love seeks our salvation and reconciliation.  The only answer is that someone must take our place and bear the brunt of God’s wrath.  That someone is none other than Jesus Christ, the only Son of God and the only perfect sacrifice for sin.  He took upon himself the punishment for our sins and thus set us free from God’s wrath. This freedom is only available to those who have been buried in His blood and washed clean from their sins. Will you make that decision?

Today, if you and I are to have any part in Him, we must allow Him to wash us in the waters of baptism, even as the early Christians did.
I thank my God in all my remembrance of you, always offering prayer with joy in my every prayer for you all, in view of your participation in the gospel from the first day until now. For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus. Philippians 1:3–6

In the first part, we began looking at John 11, and the amazing miracle which John narrates for us — the raising of Lazarus, a man who had been dead…
When Abram, Levi & Saul’s names were changed, they were thereafter called by their new name.  Why was Jacob called both Jacob & Israel after his name was changed?
