Title: Eternal Life (John 14:6)
Contents Jesus came to this earth to set the captives free. After the fall of Adam and Eve, humans first became prisoners of guilt. The devil ruled over mankind with sin and guilt. Human beings born as sinners and living sinning become prisoners of sin and guilt, [Oh, wretched man I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death?] Jesus came to this earth to set these people free.
Jesus, who was born without sin and never sinned, took upon himself the sins of the past, present, and future of mankind, went up to the cross, and became the sacrifice before God to atone for all the sins of mankind. Isaiah 53:5 says, "He was pierced for our transgressions, and he was bruised for our iniquities."
Also, humans are beings who have become prisoners of emptiness and meaninglessness. Humans who have not been born again through Jesus Christ do not know where they come from, what they live for, or where they are going, but they live according to the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of this world. The Bible says about life in 1 Peter 1:24, “All flesh is like grass, and all its glory is like the flowers of the field; the grass withers and the flowers fall.” Fallen human beings are fundamentally worthless and meaningless.
Jesus came to this earth for such a human being. Jesus said clearly, "I am the way, the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father except through me." Jesus is the way to the eternal kingdom of heaven, the eternal value, the truth, and eternal life. Because of this, those who believe in Jesus gain the value and meaning of eternal life.
Furthermore, human beings are beings who have become prisoners of death and unconsciousness. All humans die. Even if I am a heroic ho-girl or a slim woman, I cannot refuse death.
What a vain human being who has no choice but to return to a handful of dust. Jesus came to this earth to give them the eternal kingdom of heaven. Jesus died on the cross and rose from the dead three days later. Anyone who believes in this Jesus can enter the eternal kingdom of heaven and live with Jesus forever.
Anyone in Jesus Christ can become a new creation, freed from the captivity of sin and guilt, emptiness and meaninglessness, death and nothingness. There is no greater gospel in this world than this. Therefore, our family must accept this gospel, live in it, and testify to it.
Prayer: Dear Lord. Please protect our family so that we can always live worthy of light and salt by being transformed in the gospel. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen.
