Oppression of the Just One
Many of us have heard the Gospel of Jesus Christ often. At Christmas time the songs and greetings send out the message about a baby Jesus. The oppressed Jesus may escape our thoughts then because we see a baby Jesus.
Now Easter is here and we will hear about the crucified Jesus and the risen Jesus. All that is well if we really hear with our spirits and welcome the risen Jesus into our lives.
What we should never forget after Easter is gone is that Jesus, the innocent or Just One , suffered oppression at the hands of those who nailed Him to the cross. Not just the ones who struck with the hammer or mallet, but also the rulers who rejected Him.
The oppression of the Just One did not take place without you in mind. Isaiah 53:7 (KJV) used the word oppressed long before it happened. God's offer of salvation is for all. Christ suffered oppression for all. He was oppressed so that you can escape many oppressions.
Will you receive Him or will you take the side of the oppressors? The choice is yours. Today is your day for salvation if you hear Him speaking to you. Don't close your ears. Trust Him and ask Him to forgive you and give you a new spirit.
You can seek out other believers to learn more about serving Jesus.
Have a happy Easter.
