The Death of Jesus Was Not The Main Thing, That Was Not God’s Main Plan – Pastor Chris Oyakhilome

The Death of Jesus Was Not The Main Thing, That Was Not God’s Main Plan – Pastor Chris Oyakhilome.

In a recent post on Facebook, The President and Founder of Loveworld Inc, popularly known as Christ Embassy, Pastor Chris Oyakhilome emphasizes the transformative power of Jesus Christ’s sacrificial act to deliver humanity from the shackles of sin and its consequences.

The Man of God delves into the essence of the gospel, highlighting that Jesus paid the redeeming sacrifice for everyone, providing salvation for the soul and spirit of mankind.

According to him, “To deliver from sin and it’s consequences by sacrifice: Jesus paid the redeeming sacrifice for everyone and that’s what the gospel of Jesus Christ is about. It is Salvation for man’s soul/spirit. In this salvation, he gives us something. A lot of times, we talk of what he took away (my sin, my condemnation). Most people don’t mention what he gave. The death of Jesus was only a means to an end. The death of Jesus was not the ultimate. It wasn’t God’s ultimate plan. His death was paid. Satisfying the claims of Justice for all men. His death settled the debt. But there was much more. Christianity does not begin with the death of Jesus. It begins with the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Until a man believes in the resurrection of Jesus Christ, he cannot be saved. (Of course the lesser is Included in the greater). Through his death, he brought us Justification. This means to be acquitted or declared not guilty.”
