Zep 1:7

Zep 1:7 Be silent before the face of the Lord Jehovah, for the day of Jehovah is at hand. For Jehovah has appointed a sacrifice; He has consecrated His called ones.

The appointed sacrifice died a sinner's death on the cross. Even though He died a sinner's death, He committed no sin. He was and is the fulfillment of the Scriptures. He is the Truth, Way, Life, Bread, Light. This man born of a virgin and named Jesus was the appointed sacrifice.

It is our heart belief in who Jesus is and what He did that makes us one of His own. We have been called into His family to be adopted sons and daughters. It is our faith that consecrates us to Him. Nothing of works can ever consecrate us. However, works are the offspring of faith in the Lord Jesus. For faith with out works is dead.
