I have been a Christian for more than 35 years, but never took time to consider what my salvation actually means to Jesus.
Jesus has been despised, mocked, slandered and ridiculed by billions of people for more than 2,000 years. Being fully human himself, that has to hurt.
Our salvation tells Jesus that we not only believe his message and accept his gift of forgiveness, but we also love him enough to honor him and obey his words.
Imagine how wonderful Jesus will feel basking in the love and warmth of people he died to save for all eternity.
Our life in heaven is just as much a reward for Jesus as it is for us. The celebration promised in Revelation 19:6-9 will be tremendous!
