Man's Best For God VS God's Best For Man
Many people attempt to save themselves doing their best for God. They try to do this, they try to avoid that, laboring and working real hard to be the best that they can be for God.
But man's best is never and will never be good enough. The best that man can do is imperfect obedience. As they say, the best of men is simply men at their best. Man's best can never save himself.
Many are unmindful of the fact that God did His best for man in Christ Jesus at the cross of Calvary. Calvary was God doing His best for man's salvation. Only God can perfectly satisfy God. And God was perfectly satisfied with what He did in Christ Jesus at Calvary.
Now, God is not calling upon men to come and do their best for Him to be saved. No, rather He is calling upon men everywhere to come, rely and trust in the best that He did for man in Christ Jesus.
