What does the Bible say about accepting Jesus?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible emphasizes that it's not about our acceptance of Jesus but about God making us accepted in Him through Christ.

The scripture does not indicate that God presents an offer for man to accept Him, but rather, it highlights that God makes His people acceptable in His sight through Christ. Hebrews 1:3 states that Christ purged our sins and sat down at the right hand of the majesty on high, emphasizing His completed work for our salvation. Acceptance is not initiated by man; instead, it is God who chooses to grant us acceptance by placing us in His beloved Son, Jesus Christ. Our cry should not be 'I accept you, Lord,' but rather recognizing that we depend on His grace to consider us acceptable.
