Satisfied by trusting Christ

Preachers Corner https://www.preacherscorner.org.uk

There are many things people do to find satisfaction. Maybe you think a new car or a new house will answer all your needs to be satisfied. But when these things come your way you’re still on the same road unsatisfied. The Lord Jesus is the only person who has the answer for our souls to be completely satisfied. It’s by trusting in Him and the work He has finished at the cross that you can be at peace.

Bible Scriptures: Darby Translation

Matthew 27:45-4945 Now from [the] sixth hour there was darkness over the whole land until [the] ninth hour;46 but about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?47 And some of those who stood there, when they heard [it], said, This [man] calls for Elias.48 And immediately one of them running and getting a sponge, having filled [it] with vinegar and fixed [it] on a reed, gave him to drink.49 But the rest said, Let be; let us see if Elias comes to save him.50 And Jesus, having again cried with a loud voice, gave up the ghost.”

Luke 24:13-3415 And it came to pass as they conversed and reasoned, that Jesus himself drawing nigh, went with them;16 but their eyes were holden so as not to know him.17 And he said to them, What discourses are these which pass between you as ye walk, and are downcast?18 And one [of them], named Cleopas, answering said to him, Thou sojournest alone in Jerusalem, and dost not know what has taken place in it in these days?19 And he said to them, What things? And they said to him, The things concerning Jesus the Nazaraean, who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people;20 and how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him up to [the] judgment of death and crucified him.21 But *we* had hoped that *he* was [the one] who is about to redeem Israel. But then, besides all these things, it is now, to-day, the third day since these things took place.

22 And withal, certain women from amongst us astonished us, having been very early at the sepulchre,23 and, not having found his body, came, saying that they also had seen a vision of angels, who say that he is living.24 And some of those with us went to the sepulchre, and found it so, as the women also had said, but him they saw not.25 And *he* said to them, O senseless and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken!26 Ought not the Christ to have suffered these things and to enter into his glory?27 And having begun from Moses and from all the prophets, he interpreted to them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.28 And they drew near to the village where they were going, and *he* made as though he would go farther.29 And they constrained him, saying, Stay with us, for it is toward evening and the day is declining. And he entered in to stay with them.30 And it came to pass as he was at table with them, having taken the bread, he blessed, and having broken it, gave it to them.31 And their eyes were opened, and they recognised him. And he disappeared from them.32 And they said to one another, Was not our heart burning in us as he spoke to us on the way, [and] as he opened the scriptures to us?

33 And rising up the same hour, they returned to Jerusalem. And they found the eleven, and those with them, gathered together,34 saying, The Lord is indeed risen and has appeared to Simon.35 And they related what [had happened] on the way, and how he was made known to them in the breaking of bread.
