…He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die.
John 11:25-26
Week one of the “So You’re Dead…Now What?” series began yesterday. Craig spoke about death. The statement that seems to stick with me was: “WHAT YOU BELIEVE ABOUT DEATH AND ETERNITY WILL DETERMINE HOW YOU LIVE.”
Just think about that for a second. Makes a lot of sense. Think about the way you are living your life today. At this moment, you are living your life based on what you believe about death and eternity.
I pray that if you know Christ that you will live your life full of joy and gladness because we have so much to live for.
If you live your life in fear of death because you have no hope and faith of eternal life with Jesus then I pray you find that hope. All it takes is a simple prayer to ask Christ to become the center of your life and then living your life to honor and glorifying His name.
The reality is that Scripture is very clear. There are no alternative ways to heaven. There is One Way. His name is Jesus. He has made a way between us and God. If we are judged by works only, we are so going to fall short. It’s by His grace and mercy that we can know Christ, be in relationship with Him and one day be with Him forever in heaven.
So, what do you believe about death and eternity? That’s how you are living your life today.
