LIFE THAT’S TRULY LIFE
That’s the Life He wants you to live. Life that is truly Life
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full – John 10:10
Why did the Lord Jesus Christ really come? He tells us that He came so that we may have Life, Eternal Life. Over and over in the Gospels, the Lord Jesus Christ repeats this fact. John 6:47 says, ‘Very truly I tell you, the one who believes has eternal life.’ When you believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, He forgives your sins, but He also gives you Eternal Life. That’s the Doctrine of Christ. That’s what He taught. The Lord came to do more than forgive us our sins. He came to give us His Life.
Acts 26:18 says, ‘That they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.’ When we believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, we receive Forgiveness of sins, and our Inheritance of Eternal Life. Many don’t know that they have more than Forgiveness of sins. 1 John 5:13 says, ‘These things I have written unto you that believe in the name of the Son of God, that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe in the name of the Son of God.’ By being born again, we’re now born of God and have His Life. We have more than Forgiveness of sins, we also have Eternal Life.
Don’t therefore settle for Forgiveness of sins, graduate to living in Eternal Life. The Lord Jesus Christ came to give you more than Forgiveness of sins. He came to give you His Life. 1 Timothy 6:19b says, ‘So that they may take hold of the life that is truly life.’ Eternal Life is Life that is truly Life. In other words, human life is not true life. The life of sin in this world is not rooted in reality but deception. When you live Eternal Life, you live the Life the Lord lived in this world. He lived above sin, sickness, poverty, Satan, this world, and death. He lived a Life of Victory, Power, and Dominion. That’s the Life He wants you to live. Life that is truly Life. Glory to God!
PRAYER
Heavenly Father, in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, I thank You that I can live the Life that is truly Life. Thank You that I can live above sin, sickness, poverty, Satan, the world, and death. Amen.
