CRU Update

Imagine seeing God. How would you respond? Would you feel shocked or amazed? As Mr Sheldon spoke to a full Christian Studies area on Isaiah 6 last Friday, we saw Isaiah’s guilt as he realised he was unworthy to see God. Mr Sheldon went on to explain how this is because God is holy and cannot tolerate sin. Isaiah was quick to recognise that even he, God’s prophet, was guilty and sinful, exclaiming, “Woe to me! I am ruined!” He understood that he was not perfect, and he had done and said things that did not meet God’s holy, perfect standards. 

In the same way, we at Shore in 2024 have the same problem that Isaiah had in approximately 740 BC. We cannot be in a relationship with the God who created us for this very purpose because of our sin. The good news is that God sent His only Son Jesus to earth, where He died on a cross with the sin of the world concentrated on Him. If you believe in Jesus, you can have confidence that your sins have been paid for by the blood of Jesus. He is the only solution to Isaiah’s problem and ours.
