BETTER TO BE BROKEN THAN CRUSHED



Jesus came humbly and chose a barn as His place of birth and a feed trough as His crib. He came as a sacrificial lamb to die for our sins. He was oppressed and afflicted, and He didn't defend Himself. He will soon come back as a King, the "Lion of Judah," ready for battle! Be ready!


Being the King of kings, He humbled Himself to become a human sacrifice, living among us not in luxury and glamour, but in genuinely humble circumstances. He chose to be born in a barn and grew up in a poor family. By His own choice, He grew up in a town so despised that a proverb questioned, 'Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?'.


He had no ambition for titles, He came to take nothing from this world but all our sins! He came to give everything for us on the cross, He was obedient and chose His own death for you and me!


Isaiah 53:

"He was oppressed and He was afflicted, Yet He opened not His mouth; He was led as a lamb to the slaughter, And as a sheep, before its shearers is silent, So He opened not His mouth." He is despised and rejected by men, A Man of sorrows and acquainted with grief. And we hid, as it were, our faces from Him; He was despised, and we did not esteem Him. Surely He has borne our griefs And carried our sorrows; Yet we esteemed Him stricken, Smitten by God, and afflicted. But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes, we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; We have turned, everyone, to his own way; And the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all."


He's our King, our Savior, and our cornerstone that provides the firm foundation for our lives - for all who trust in Him!


Therefore thus says the Lord God: Behold, I lay in Zion a stone for a foundation, A tried stone, a precious cornerstone, a sure foundation; Whoever believes will not act hastily. Is 28:16


Judgment is promised to all those who reject Christ:


“Anyone who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces; anyone on whom it falls will be crushed.” Matt 21:44


Please stop despising and rejecting Him!


Stop building your life on the cornerstone of this world!


The era of grace in the Church is coming to an end. The 2,000 years are almost over, and the judgment of those who oppose Him and are not found in Him will start soon! Don't be "crushed"!


Soon He will appear in heaven to get His Church out of this world and His judgment against those who didn't want to believe in Him will begin - the 7-year tribulation. At the end of this period, He will return for the second time as a roaring Lion, as the King of Kings and Lord of Lords.


With His mighty armies from heaven, which includes His faithful Church.


He will wage war against His enemies. He will establish His glorious kingdom in Jerusalem to rule over the nations. His triumphant return will mark the ultimate victory of righteousness over evil and the fulfillment of His divine plan for the world.


It's time to believe in Jesus and get saved!! Be ready, He's coming for His Church!


Believe Jesus is the Son of God, who died on the cross for our sins, He was buried and resurrected during the third day, according to the Scriptures, so we can have eternal life with Him.


The moment you believe in Him and that He died for your sins - you're saved, justified, sealed until the day of redemption, and rapture ready!


The Holy Spirit will come to live inside of you - He will help you, guide you, change you, and be with you FOREVER!


"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." (John 3:16)
