He Cleansed the World

I see every person as holy because of what Christ has done.

"What God has cleansed, no longer consider unholy...God has shown me that I should not call any person 'unholy' or 'unclean.'" 

Acts 10:15, 28 (NASB)

Christ took away the sin of the world. That means the world is washed clean by Christ. God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their sins against them. God has forgiven the whole world through Christ. That means there is no sin on them. The world is cleansed, each person is made clean and holy and pure by Christ's death on the cross. So we can see every person through the lens of the finished work of Christ, who forgave and cleansed the world of sin. So even though on the outside people's lives are messy and their behavior is often impure, we can see through Christ's eyes and see each person the way He does, clean and pure and holy. And we can see ourselves that way, too!

A Thought: Thank You, Jesus, for your precious blood that cleansed us all of sin and made us holy!


May the amazing grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the extravagant love of God, and the intimate friendship of the Holy Spirit be with all of you. 2 Co. 13:14
