Once For All

Man seems to always be on the lookout for something better.  Whether it be a better medication, a better stereo, or a better method of weight loss, there is always a temporary contentment while we wait with anticipation for something new and improved.

    Much of this tendency often carries over into one’s religion.  There are some who are looking for something more.  They feel unsatisfied with what is currently available and are looking for something better.  For this reason many denominations have sought to offer various programs and some have even tailored their doctrines to appeal to more people who are looking for the latest thing.  What is often overlooked is the fact that people are looking for something better, because the denominational system that they are in does not satisfy them as it does not resemble the original plan of salvation and the church that Jesus built.

    Others, in an attempt to modernize religion have looked for another Savior and another kind of religion.  Therefore Mohammad, Joseph Smith, and Ellen G. White has become very popular.  However, the Bible as warned that if we reject Christ, the one and only Savior, “there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins”  (Heb. 10.26).  Simply put, if we reject Christ looking for something better, we are not going to find it.  Furthermore, the Hebrew writer describes Christ as dying “once for all”  (Heb. 7.27).  Indeed, if the death of Christ was ineffective, then He would have to die often.  But because of the power of His blood, His death is once for all time.  There no longer is any need of anyone else do be sacrificed, nor is there any need for any additional religious system.  (Heb. 9.26)

    Additionally, man has been looking for further explanations and have attempted to add and supplement the Bible with so called, “latter day revelations”.  Yet the Bible clearly states that it we have been given “all things that pertain to life and godliness”  (2 Pet. 1.3).  Jude declares that this word has been delivered, “once for all”  (Jude 3).  Like the death of Christ, the word of God is accomplished what God intended, and therefore there is no longer any need for additional revelation.

     The word of God and the salvation through Christ which it reveals is all that we need to be right with God.
