Today's reading: Numbers 1:1-21

But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)
Ephesians 2:4-5

A group of tourists, visiting a museum, is standing in front of a famous painting, a triptych depicting the last judgment. The guide is explaining some to the details: "The wicked persons on the left of the picture are being cast into hell, whereas the righteous enter paradise."
"The righteous? If that is the standard required," one tourist told his neighbour, "then I have no hope. What about you?"
"Me? Well, I'm not one of the wicked."
"So you are righteous then?"
"No, no, I didn't say that. Whoever could maintain that he has always been righteous?"
"That's just it! God says in the Bible: â€˜There is none righteous, no, not one' But Jesus Christ came to die for wicked people, for the godless. If you don't want to be one of the wicked, then His atoning sacrifice won't benefit you. Yet that is the only way to make anyone righteous before God" (cf. ).
This conversation continued during the entire guided tour. Afterwards, the two tourists exchanged their addresses. Not long after, a telephone rang. The man's conscience had been pricked, and in his uneasy state, he asked, "What must I do to be saved?" He was given the answer, "Believe on the Son of God who died precisely for the wicked, which we all are. He bore the judgment that we all deserved."

GOD HAS A SUBSTITUTE

One thing we need to learn in today's reading is that God always has a substitute. If God says He wants you, rejoice! However, be careful, because even as He is choosing you, He has already prepared a substitute.
