May 6: Forgiveness – Our right response to God, John 1:12

As Christians we do not believe in universalism. In other words, we do not believe in the universal application of the forgiveness of sin, through the blood of Jesus Christ, to every single human being on the earth whether they believe it or not. There is a choice to make. That is why Billy Graham held evangelistic crusades, why I help to run Christianity Explored courses, why we pray for friends and relatives who are agnostic or atheist. We long for people to know for themselves, the greatest gift that they could ever receive. For those of us who have experienced this gift, the joy and freedom that comes with being washed clean by the blood of Jesus is overwhelming!
