A Devotion By Pastor Paul Rieger - Senior Pastor
God Calls Us From Darkness
For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”—Romans 10:13 (ESV)
Salvation
What certainty do we have in being saved from sin and death? Sure you might have read the gospels and walked with Jesus from betrayal, to condemnation, to crucifixion, to death, and then to resurrection. But does that mean you’re saved? What makes me so bold that I, a sinner, should receive what God has done?
Salvation is given to everyone. God does not desire the death of sinners, but that we should turn from our sins and live.
From the pit of sin and death, we hear God calling us to flee from sin and turn to Him. We call on Him to save us, to let down His holy rope and rescue us from the pit, pulling us our of the darkness of sin.
What certainty do we have in being saved from sin and death? The very Son of God called us from darkness to light, so that we might call on Him and be saved.
