The reason Saul was converted on the Damascus road was to show what the gospel is all about - that if he can be converted, then anyone can be converted. If the chief sinner can become a Christian, then anyone can. If the worst sinner can come to Christ, then there is no one who is beyond the pale of forgiveness in Christ Jesus.

Sometimes during our lives we get so discouraged that, as Elijah, we want to sit under a juniper tree and die. When Elijah takes his eyes off God, and puts them on self, look at the results. He starts to fear for his life. We must face life and go on. We have much work to do and little time to do it.

For Isaiah, the insight into the meaning of life is not merely that there is a God out there who loves us and offers a wonderful plan for us; it is that all things and everyone live for the glory of God. God does not exist for us; we exist for him. The wonderful news for us is that God is most glorified by his work of redemption.

TITUS 2:11-14

For the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people. It teaches us to say “No” to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age, while we wait for the blessed hope—the appearing of the glory of our great God and Saviour, Jesus Christ,  who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good.

Paul wrote to the Galatians to remind them of the significance of what Christ had done for them when he came to the earth.

Galatians 4:4-5 But when the fulness of the time was come,{At the time determined by God, God the Father sent forth God the Son, born of a woman, born under the Law. Mary was a Jewish woman.} God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law. To redeem them that were under the law, {Jews} that we {everybody} might receive the adoption of sons.

For God so loved the world that he GAVE his one and only Son...

Many believe it is a sin to be tempted. It is not a sin to be tempted; the sin comes when you give in to that temptation.
