Shall Not Perish but Have Eternal Life

John 3:16-18

 

God is the owner of everything. He created all things in the universe, including man who would use everything. For this reason, man is the most blessed created being of all. God formed man as a spiritual being who lives forever. “The LORD God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.” Genesis 2:7

 

When we die, our flesh will return to the dust of the earth because from it we were made. But our souls came from God, and when we die we will return to Him. We have used all the things given to us by God so we should give thanks to Him personally. But we’ve just lived our lives, not knowing or acknowledging Him. This is ignorance.

 

“And the LORD God commanded the man, "You are free to eat from any tree in the garden; but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat of it you will surely die." Genesis 2:16-17 God didn’t want man to perish, so He told them not to eat of it. But man was deceived by the devil, and he became disobedient to God. And according to the law of this world, man was sentenced to death. Our true beings, our souls, will face eternal fire in hell. “And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night forever and ever.” Revlation 20:10

 

We are all Adam’s descendants, and his sin has been passed down to us. As he was a sinner, so we are sinners too. “Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all men, because all sinned.” Romans 5:12. God tells us to act righteously, but we neglect His Word. How pitiful we are!

 

All suffering, curses and death comes to us due to the wages of sin. But God sent Jesus Christ to this world to redeem us from all our physical and spiritual suffering due to sin. Jesus is the only Savior for us who solved all of our suffering, both spiritually and physically. See Isaiah 53:5-6. He has already paid the wages for our suffering. If you believe this fact as your portion, you will be freed from all your poverty, current suffering and eternal suffering in hell. Our faith is not to exert ourselves to the extreme like other religions do for their gods. We have the right to be freed from all kinds of suffering. There is no other way for you to be delivered, but by the amazing grace of God.

 

Dear brothers and sisters! Let us grab this great opportunity and come to faith in Him and be able to get out of Hell. Let us be saved from sin, curses, death and hell. Let’s possess the desire of God. Jesus Christ wanted our eternal happiness so desperately, He was even willing to die for us.
