Gen 1:31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
KJV
All that God made was good, very good. All would have continued to be very good if man had just obeyed the simple command of God “And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.” A simple command but one that mad did not follow and at once all that was very good became corrupt because of sin. There is one simple command given by God to man today that makes it possible for all to be very good once more. “Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.” Jesus makes it very clear that “Ye must be born again”. How can a man be born again? By trusting in Jesus Christ and Jesus Christ alone as our personal savior. By believing God and the Bible. By believing that we have sinned and have fallen short of God’s righteous standard. By confessing that sin to God. By repenting of our sin, turning away from our sin, and turning to Jesus Christ as our only way to find forgiveness and eternal life. By placing faith and trust in the shed blood of Jesus Christ to wash away our sin. Life indeed is hard, is not always good. By life in Christ is always better, life in Christ is good. Are you born again today? Or do you need to repent and find a better life in Christ?
