Friends in Christ Weekly Message
May 23, 2009
We believe what people tell us. But we can trust what God says even more, and God is the one who has spoken about his Son. If we have faith in God's Son, we have believed what God has said. But if we don't believe what God has said about his Son, it is the same as calling God a liar. God has also said that he gave us eternal life and that this life comes to us from his Son. And so, if we have God's Son, we have this life. But if we don't have the Son, we don't have this life.
1 John 5:9-12 (CEV*)
John here is witnessing to the truth about Jesus Christ, a truth which comes from God himself. Through Christ, we are given eternal life. If we accept Christ into our hearts, we have this eternal life; and if we don't, we don't.
Have you allowed Christ to live in your heart?
