It is necessary for us to think once again about all the things that have been discussed up to this point. If you do that, you will probably remember how the Old Testament explained beforehand the birth of Jesus, His death, and the fact that God raised Him from the dead. If you believe the entire Bible from what you have read - firstly through the prophets and then through the writings of the apostles - the promise that Jesus Himself made will be accomplished in you.
Let's listen carefully now to this promise.
|
Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life. (John 5:24)
|
Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me has everlasting life.
(John 6:47)
|
If you believe this as a fact and do not have any doubts about it, then be thankful to God for the love that He has given you free of charge, and let's read once more with gratitude the words of Jesus:
|
"And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand. My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father's hand. I and My Father are one." (John 10:28-30)
|
Let us spend our lives with hearts thankful to God and to His Son, Jesus Christ, who freely bestowed this great love upon us, and let us cast all our cares upon Him.
Amen.
