"And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up, that whoever believes in him may have eternal life. For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God" (John 3:14-15 and Ephesians 2:8 ESV)
Who can be saved? "...whoever
believes..."
What will we receive? "...eternal
life..." (that is, Him who is Life and Eternal)
Where is this life found?
"...in Him..."
How can we be saved?
"...through faith..."
In Whom must we place our faith?
"...the Son of Man..." (Jesus, the Christ)
What must we do besides have
faith? "...this is not your own doing..."
How then can we receive?
"...it is the gift of God..."
How does this gift come?
"...by grace..."
The unearned, unmerited favor of
God is available to all who will take Him at His word! AMAZING, this grace!
And, what does it deliver? It
delivers LIFE!
"Whoever" can come, and
we'll know they have come because "whoever" believes will have Life!
God calls to all, even to we who
are reading this now, the Spirit speaks, saying, "Come, everyone who
thirsts, come to the waters; and he who has no money, come, buy and eat! Come,
buy wine and milk without money and without price. Come to me, all who labor
and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. For I will satisfy the weary
soul, and every languishing soul I will replenish. Whoever drinks the water I
give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them
a spring of water welling up to eternal life, for he satisfies the thirsty and
fills the hungry with good things." (Isaiah 55:1, Matthew 11:28, Jeremiah
31:28, John 4:14, Psalm 107:9 ESV)
Would you turn to Jesus?
Would you believe?
Believe that Jesus is sufficient
for your sin.
Believe Jesus is sufficient to
grant new life.
Believe Jesus is sufficient to
conquer death.
Believe Jesus is sufficient to
quell the righteous wrath of the Father.
Believe! Have Life!
