Fear and trembling

Phil 2:12 English Standard Version

Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, so now, not only as in my presence but much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling,

Tetelestia

In 35 years, yesterday was my best Good Friday ever. I woke up sobbing with the revelation of the cross. The picture that kept coming before me was our Lord Jesus covered with blood, stripes all over, with a crown of thorns thrust on his head and carrying the cross and walking and He turns looks at me and says "your sins are no more". It was too powerful, I totally was drenched in His love. I experienced such love and forgiveness for the first time inspite of being a born again christian for the past 25 years. Then I opened my ipad to read and the first email I saw had the verse

Hebrews 8:10,12
10…I will put My laws in their mind…I will be their God… 12…I will be merciful to their unrighteousness…their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.”

Tetelestia was the theme word of the day for me. All because he voluntarily lay down his life for me and all of us.
