Luke 19:10 "For the SON of MAN is come to seek and to save that which was lost."
Lord Kelvin, the nineteenth century Irish scientist and inventor, answered a simple inquiry put to him by another gentleman. The question was: "How do you explain the existence of radium in the earth at the present ?" This is his answer, which can scarcely be noted for its simplicity: "by concourse of atoms and by interatomic motions from a time when the ponderable matter of the solar system and the stars existed as separate atoms, scattered through the ether, and moving with velocities probably much less than the present velocities of stars through space." Unless you are a physicist, you are most likely like me, saying, "What ?" Contrast Kelvin's response with JESUS CHRIST's own definition of HIS mission to Earth, given in words of one syllable, able to be understood by any person: "For the SON of MAN is come to seek and to save that which was lost" (v.10).
This is such a simple message, yet it explains what every person needs to know in order to be redeemed through the LORD JESUS CHRIST. Our LORD said that HE came "to seek and to save" the lost -- sinners who need to repent before a Holy GOD and place their faith in JESUS (Acts 20:21 pictured above). Without HIM we are lost but thank GOD that HE provided HIS only begotten SON WHO came with the purpose of providing redemption from sins' bondage through HIS shed blood. JESUS came willingly, sent to this sin-cursed Earth from GOD the FATHER, in order to die on the cross of Calvary and there pay the penalty for the sin of all mankind (John 1:29; 1st.John 2:2 both pictured above). All who will, by faith, realize that they are lost sinners and place their trust in the person and finished work of GOD's SON will be saved -- simple truth; GREAT SALVATION ! JED
Your servant in CHRIST,
