But for jesus…

Humanity would have been turned into humus

Humanity would not have discovered the path to God

Humanity would have lost its God-given identity.

Worldly systems would have withered the Word of God on earth

Worldly systems would have dominated humanity on this earth wildly

Worldly systems would have robbed humanity of the goodies of this life and Heaven.

All nations would have surrendered to the worldly systems

All nations would have worshipped images instead of God

All nations would have been enemies of God.

Individuals would have been dominated by their families and societies

Individuals would not have discovered their unique God-given identities

Individuals would not have discovered their God-given purpose.

I would have lost the essence of humanity

I would have been a slave to the worldly systems while in this earth

I would have denied many individuals of the benefits of my great potential

I would have been a victim of creation instead of being its key player.
