Will you swap me your sins for eternal life, says God Give me your sins and I’ll give you eternal life and much more Brendan Mc Crossan 7-9-2011
One God wants to make a swap; your sins for eternal life, no hidden agendas or things that you have to do later to earn it. When I was young I used to swap comic with friends, I gave them my comics and they swapped me for theirs, that way we seen all the latest releases; or sometimes I swapped them comics for toys, and they vice versa. God is like that, he is willing to swap you holiness for filthy sins; he is willing to trade with you, your faults for his forgiveness, and trade you his mercy for your failings. God is willing to trade with you every foul stinking sin and to give you eternal life with him in heaven in return. He is willing to trade every dirty little secret for gifts of his spirit; not only that but he is willing to accept those sins that hold you in bondage, for his freedom and eternal life. You have a part to do in this trade if you want to get rid of all the guilt and shame; you have to accept the offer of trade he offers you. If you were to sit down and think about it, A Holy God who owns heaven and earth and the cosmos wants to trade with you every foul lie and deception and sexual deviation, every perversions that you have for a glorious new life in heaven together with him and with all the angels in heaven and all the souls of those who he deemed worthy of eternal life.
God wants to swap with you the awesome miracle working power of his Holy Spirit for your worthlessness. He wants to give you supernatural gifts and powers for your disgusting sinful nature. Are you willing to trade with him, there are no hidden agendas or surprises later on, it is a straight swap he wants to make, and in fact you are the one who controls the deal, you have the freedom to say later, I don’t want this new life, I’d rather go back to my old sinful life, and he doesn’t ask for anything back because his gifts and calls are irrevocable. He can’t change his mind unlike us once he gives his word it’s there forever; he is not an Indian giver as they say; One who gives something away then wants it back later after they get fed up with it or want something else.
You are the one placed in control of this eternal life that is being offered, you are the one in control of these miraculous healing gifts and prophecies and miracle working power, it’s all under your control. When God swaps he swaps forever, and he would dearly love for you to feel like you got the better half of the deal.
Personally I think holiness and perfection and eternal life is better than all my disgusting shame and guilt and dirty feelings, but that is me. I swapped God all my sins and faults and failures for a life filled with great and wondrous Gifts and powers thirty six years ago and I seen those gifts and powers working for me, and I seen into heaven one time and I know that I stand forgiven before God the Father in heaven, and I know that I have boldness to call God Father, that I have God answering my prayers, and all because I swapped him my sins for himself.
Would you swap your sins of murder, rape and sodomy, for a life of pure holiness, a gift of being perfect forever, God sits on the edge of his throne to see if you will swap with him, are you willing to trade all those terrible things for Holiness and perfection forever. You know I could give you scripture after scripture to show what I write is true, but that won’t make you believe any more that what I have just written. You have an opportunity to do a trade with God a once in a lifetime trade, that will leave you the one better off. Would you trade with God all the sins that you committed, and get rid of them all at the one time for a life in Jesus Christ?
Would you trade your sleepless nights as you toss back and forward in your sleep because guilt has you in its grasp, for total peace? That’s part of the swap God is willing to make with you right now. All you got to do is say, ‘ok God I’ll swap you every foul thing about me for your cleanliness,’
What have you to lose? Nothing! You only have eternity in heaven to Gain, aye but there must be a catch somewhere you may be saying, there is no catch twenty two, there is just a straight offer to swap with God your sins for eternal life, in all of this you are a winner, you have nothing to lose but your sins. All you have to do is say, “God I will swap you my sins for eternal life and accept Jesus into my heart as my Lord and saviour, in return I am willing to believe that Jesus died for my sins and is willing to take them from me, these ones I have committed and the future sins that I will commit. Ok Lord the deal is done.” And God would say Amen, so be it deal done.
