EXISTENCE is a state of being that one is physically born into. LIFE is a state of being that one is spiritually born into. A person does not need a saving relationship to God for EXISTENCE, but one does need a saving relationship for LIFE. How can I have such a real and right relationship? Because of God and His Word “which liveth and abideth forever” (1 PETER 1:23-25)
BELIEVE and COME!
“Jesus saith unto him, I AM the way, the truth, AND THE LIFE: NO man COMETH unto the Father BUT BY ME” (John 14:6).
BELIEVE and LIVE!
“Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection and the LIFE: he that believeth in Me, THOUGH HE WERE DEAD, YET SHALL HE LIVE, And whosoever liveth and believeth in Me SHALL NEVER DIE. Do you believe this?” (John 11:25-26).
“Verily, Verily I say unto you, He that heareth My Word and believeth on Him that sent Me hath EVERLASTING LIFE, and shall not come into judgment, but is passed FROM DEATH UNTO LIFE” (John 5:24).
BELIEVE and KNOW!
“And this is LIFE ETERNAL, that they might KNOW Thee the only true God, and JESUS CHRIST, whom Thou hast sent.” “And this is the record, that God hath given to us ETERNAL LIFE, and this LIFE is in His Son. He that hath the Son hath LIFE; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life” (John17:3; 1 John 5:11-12).
BELIEVE and BE BLESSED!
“BLESSED are they that have not seen, and yet have believed...these are WRITTEN that ye might BELIEVE that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that BELIEVING ye might have LIFE through HIS NAME” (Who He is, What He has done on the Cross and what He is doing as the living Lord and Saviour)---John 20:29,31.
“But as many as RECEIVED HIM (the Lord Jesus), to them gave He power (authority) to become the sons (children) of God, even to them that BELIEVE ON HIS NAME” (John 1:12).
Take God at His Word and RECEIVE HIM today in order that you might have a SAVING, LIVING RELATIONSHIP to God!
The Kingdom of Heaven is at Hand!
The unbelieving will spend eternity in the lake of fire in torment paying for their sin.
The wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Yes my freind, that is the ETERNAL REALITY for ALL like it or not, That is why Almighty God the Father sent his Son, to be our propitiation and Savior (John 3:16-17, Rom. 10:2-4, 1 John 4:10, 5:11-13).
Unbelief rejects Almighty God our Creator’s ONLY saving solution and leaves us marred and ruin in our transgression for ALL ETERNITY John 3:36, Rev. 22:11). Hell is literally Almighty God’s dump for refuse (Rev. 20:11-15). That was the Greek word Jesus used to describe it.
