The one who comes from above is above all; the one who is of the earth belongs to the earth and speaks about earthly things. The one who comes from heaven is above all. He testifies to what he has seen and heard, yet no one accepts his testimony. Whoever has accepted his testimony has certified this, that God is true. He whom God has sent speaks the words of God, for he gives the Spirit without measure. The Father loves the Son and has placed all things in his hands. Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever disobeys the Son will not see life, but must endure God’s wrath. (John 3:31-36, NRSV)
This last sentence is a tough one:
Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever disobeys the Son will not see life, but must endure God’s wrath.
SO if you believe in the Son you have eternal life. Already. It is yours. It is not something you wait on, something that you will get later. Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life.
If you disobey the Son you will not see life. You do not get life if you do not believe and do not do what Jesus tells you to do. So you do not have life now or ever.
And if you do not do what the Son tells you you will face the wrath of God.
So which do you want?
And how do you know if you believe and have done everything He has told you to do?
This is a matter of faith. I believe in Jesus, the Son of God and know His promises are true.
Step out in faith and share His love with the world!
