Saint John is a beautiful chapter .. Written to prove - Peaches Posted: Dec 1st, 2017 - 11:05 pm In Reply to: "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the - Father except through Me,""
Jesus is the messiah.
My Bible reads that God "gives" eternal life to all His chosen children of God -- not "offered."
Not one child of God will be left out, even those that live a life of disobedience. The disobedient child of God just will not enjoy the abundant life God so freely gives. We are all sinners and will suffer our just reward while we live on earth. We could never work enough in the service of God or be good enough as sinners to obtain eternal life. That is why God died on the cross .. He loved us dearly enough to die for us so we can ALL live with Him in "paradise."
All of God's children will be born again sometime between conception and death, and in John 3:8 God explains to Nicodemus how we are born of the spirit .. God doesn't offer salvation .. He gives salvation.
God wrote all the names of His children in the Lamb's book of life before the foundation of the world and engraved them in the palms of His hands. He did not write the names in pencil and erase any name when we are disobedient. He gave us only 10 commandments to live by and we can't even keep them all. God knowing our weakness, He died for us instead. We are truly Blessed!!!
I read my Bible as instructions on how to try to live a Godly life, raise my children, and "enjoy" the abundant life God has so freely given to all of us .. not how to choose or earn salvation. All Praise and Glory to our King, Jesus Christ .. Amen.
