“I tell you the truth, those who listen to my message and believe in God who sent me have eternal life. They will never be condemned for their sins, but they have already passed from death into life.”
John 5:24
We serve a mighty God. The creator and giver of life. He made us from nothing, called us, designed us, and clothed us in His righteousness. When He created us, He chose to love us conditionally, radically and in spite of our weaknesses and faults. All God asks us to do is to accept and believe in Him so that we can be gifted with everlasting life.
When we were created God breathed His breath into us, and that gave us physical life. Adam sinned and death entered the world. But God wanted more for us. So He redeemed us from the curse of death, allowing His Son to pay the price for our mistakes, and once again breathed in us. But this time it was His Holy Spirit; the Spirit that gives spiritual life. His Spirit resurrects our souls from the pits of death and the penalty of sin. AND all we have to do is accept and believe! We can pass from eternal condemnation to eternal life with Christ. We can enjoy the benefits of this new life, here on this earth too… Praise God.
