ACCEPTABLE
Today's reading: 1 Corinthians 1-2
"God alone made it possible for you to be in Christ Jesus. For our benefit God made Christ to be wisdom itself. He is the one who made us acceptable to God. He made us pure and holy, and he gave himself to purchase our freedom." 1 Corinthians 1:30 NLT
Acceptable-capable or worthy; satisfactory or adequate; good enough.
If you are His...
If Christ's blood has washed you clean...
If Jesus' forgiveness has changed your dark, black, icky sin-filled heart to one that's white as snow...
If you have been redeemed by the Savior...
If your name is written down in the Lamb's book of life...
You have been made acceptable.
Capable of being a child of the One True God.
Worthy of being called God's son or daughter.
Satisfactorily and adequately made new!
You are good enough, by His standards, to step into heaven one day and hear, 'Well done, my faithful servant!'
