Eternal Life
Seventy - one percent of Americans believe in an afterlife, yet most do not believe in God. When asked what knowledge they have about an afterlife the answer is "very little". Why is that? How can someone not read the word of God or pray daily still believe in an afterlife? It's simple you can't. The proof of our eternal life is from the word of God and even so from an encounter with God. Theres been countless stories of near death experiences with all giving details of our life after death. I know what you are thinking some are hoax, lies and just illusions but truthfully how many people can have similar encounters around the world. People of different languages and cultures. People of different faiths. It happens everywhere because no matter what culture or language you speak we have one Father, one God. We push aside the words of God about our life after death. We choose to not sit in the word of our eternal life, but when someone near us passes away or is dealt with a sickness it's the first picture we imagine "The afterlife". Some atheist and scholars would love to say God and heaven were created by a man who simply wanted comfort in his last days. However wouldn't it be more comforting to believe that our actions on earth do not determine what happens after our death? It would be more comforting to believe in a rule-free world without consequences. For thousands of years there is proof of different cultures acknowledging in an afterlife, with scrolls, prayers, and sacrifices, but it wasn't until Jesus that our eternal life is illuminated. Jesus was the ultimate sacrifice, he paid our sins and gave us our home back. He gave us our eternal life through death. In this millennial age people will have you believe that Christ is overrated, that his death was a hoax and there is no life after death. It takes more faith to believe in nothing than to believe in God, it takes more faith to believe something perfect can be created from a mistake. Doubt comes from not knowing and understanding. Read and sit in the word of God speaking about your eternal life. What we do and who we are in our earthly word will fade after time but who we are will always remain in heaven. Let us not forget to be kind to each other and to leave love behind. As christ followers we are preachers of God's love and his promise. There is a phrase people love to speak "My Truth", yet there is only one TRUTH. One truth and one GOD. The enemy would have you believe that everyone has their truth about an after life, wrong or right and your existence. Just as a puzzle needs all pieces to be completed you can't live a life missing pieces, you can't have beliefs but not believe in your Father and you can't believe in an afterlife without believing the death of Jesus.
"FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD THAT HE GAVE HIS ONE AND ONLY SON, THAT WHOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM SHALL NOT PERISH BUT HAVE ETERNAL LIFE. - JOHN 3:16
"FOR IT IS BY GRACE YOU HAVE BEEN SAVED, THROUGH FAITH—AND THIS IS NOT FROM YOURSELVES, IT IS THE GIFT OF GOD NOT BY WORKS, SO THAT NO ONE CAN BOAST. FOR WE ARE GOD’S HANDIWORK, CREATED IN CHRIST JESUS TO DO GOOD WORKS, WHICH GOD PREPARED IN ADVANCE FOR US TO DO. -EPHESIANS 2:8-10
I GIVE THEM ETERNAL LIFE, AND THEY SHALL NEVER PERISH; NO ONE WILL SNATCH THEM OUT OF MY HAND. MY FATHER, WHO HAS GIVEN THEM TO ME, IS GREATER THAN ALL; NO ONE CAN SNATCH THEM OUT OF MY FATHER’S HAND. I AND THE FATHER ARE ONE.-JOHN 1-:28-30
A LITTLE WORSHIP NEVER HURT
WE ARE CREATURES OF REWARD. WE DO GOOD TO RECEIVE GOODNESS IN RETURN. WE BELIEVE IN KARMA WHAT WE PUT OUT COMES BACK AROUND. SO WHAT IF THE REWARD FOR ALL OUR GOODNESS WAS JESUS? WOULD THAT BE ENOUGH? EVERYDAY I PRAY YOU LIVE FOR THE REWARD OF SEEING JESUS FACE AND BEING WRAPPED AROUND THE ARMS OF OUR FATHER.
