Power Verse # 14 - Isaiah 1:18b






"Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool."


This is the greatest miracle of God in man- the miracle of divine grace. It is a doctrine that is unmatched in all religious beliefs and philosophies ever invented by man. The grace of God is all encompassing and does not depend on the worthiness of the person who will accept it. It is dependent on his faith in the faithfulness of God to keep His promises. A man's sins may be as numerous as the stars in the sky and as abominable as the most heinous sins he can commit, but by just accepting the offer of forgiveness and eternal salvation offered by God to him by accepting Jesus Christ as his Lord and savior and surrendering his life to the Lord, his sins are forgiven. Even if those sins are like scarlet and crimson, they shall be as white as the purest now and wool because of the saving grace of the death of Jesus Christ on the cross. Not only are man's sins forgiven, he is totally justified before the Father as though he committed no sin at all. The memories of those sins are forever erased in the memory of his soul. Not only that, the righteousness and holiness of Jesus Christ are imputed upon the born again person, making him co-heir with Jesus Christ in the kingdom of God as the title of sons and children of God is bestowed upon him by God Himself.

good evening kuya mel. just like my favorite verse Ephesian 2:8. it creates a huge impact on my christian being.

Hi Imriz,
Yes, Ephesians 2:8 speaks of salvation as a grace of God and Isaiah 1:18b speaks of the cleansing power of God's forgiveness. The only thing we must do is humble ourselves and accept God's grace of salvation by accepting Jesus Christ as our Lord and savior. Thanks for your visit and comments. God bless you all always.
