Lost people matter to Jesus

My brothers and sisters, if the lost matter to the Lord then they matter to us. Jesus died for all our sins. At one point before we were born-again and saved we were lost just like everybody else. We were sinning machines following the ways of this world. "Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others." Ephesians 2:2-3. We walked in the power of the flesh before we were born-again and saved. But now as a born-again believer in Jesus Christ, we live by His Spirit. Of course that does not mean that we will not struggle with temptation because Satan will try to get us off the wrong path. But the Lord will promise to deliver us from it. "There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it." 1 Corinthians 10:13 We must let lost people know that we love and care about them and that they matter to the Most High God because He created them in His image. Genesis 1:27. Keep preaching the gospel my brothers and sisters and let people know that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and that He died for their sins and He rose from the dead!!! Never stop preaching Christ crucified and His resurrection. Keep being faithful!!! Praise the Lord Jesus Christ!!! Amen!
