What Jesus Came To Do In The World

«Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief.» 1 Timothy 1:15

When you were born, there were already many bad things in the world. Can you think of any bad or sad things that are happening in the world? Children and adults going hungry, very bad people stealing children, wars in which many good people die, diseases. The world wasn’t like this in the beginning. It was Satan who caused sin to enter, and along with sin sadness, death, tears and suffering.

God was sad to see the beautiful and enjoyable world He had created turn into a place where people suffer. He had not created people to die, but to live forever.

So, He fulfilled a promise He had made since He created the world: Jesus would come to pay the price of disobedience, and His children would one day come back to live forever in a perfect world!

What did Jesus come to do in the world? He came to pay the price that we all should pay! What a loving God!

Let’s practice!

Pray, saying: “Dear Jesus, thank You for coming to die on the cross in my place! In Jesus’ name, amen!”
