Why Did Christ Die?

There are many answers people might give for this.  To pay the debt for our sin.  To reconcile us to God.  To save man from God's wrath.  In the Scriptures, we find an answer to this:

"And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again."  II Corinthians 5:15

He died so that we may NEVER AGAIN live for ourselves, but that we from now on would live only for Him. Can we all say this is true for us?

If not, we should pray that it be made true.

In this sermon from Minister Zac Poonen, he discusses how many Christians still do not understand the "glory" of the Gospel. And yet this understanding is crucial to us being overcomers in this present life as we live for Jesus.  I encourage you to listen to this message and may it bless you.
