“And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again.” 2 Corinthians 5:15
He died for all- he died for you! The main verse shows us he died for people for a definite purpose; that they would live unto him. It would be impossible to live unto him without his life, and to ensure that was not the case, he gave us his life.
Now, we have no excuse, he has given us his life so we would live on on the earth, doing the things he did while he walked on the earth in his Father’s will. We ought to live in the name of Jesus:
“And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.” Colossians 3:17
And he has made it so. When you got born again, you received a fixed and definite purpose for your living; he expects you to live the life of Jesus, living fully in his name.
Always remember that the one who died for you rose again, you now have a life that cannot be defeated or put under. Live this glorious victorious life with joy! This is your destiny!!
