John 10:28 (NKJV) 28 And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.
Jesus gives to us what He is, Eternal Life! This Life is the supernatural work of the presence of God in the believer, who has by faith asked forgivness of all sin, confessed Jesus as the Christ and then received Him into their being. So what is the problem with the unsaved soul, I am so glad you asked.
I received a call from someone recently, disturbed by the message of the gospel, "will you meet with me, and answer my questions," they asked? We met, and over the next hour we talked about the work of Jesus in the human heart, verse after verse was read with little results, then the person said, "just tell me plainly." I was stunned, we had discussed how to get to Christ 10 different times. Three things came to mind, first, recognize you are sinning against God, by running your own life, ask forgiveness of God for all your sin. Second, Jesus is the Son of God, there is no other way or name under heaven, He is the only way, tell The Father you know Jesus is the only way. Then, knowing that Jesus is who He declares He is, Holy and completely Righteous, ask Him to now come into your life and rule your life, that you will no longer be in control of your life!
My friend breathed a sigh of relief, and spoke in a voice everyone could hear,"CAN I DO THAT NOW?"
Heavenly Father thank You for Your precious Son Jesus, thank You for making a way for us to have eternal life. Thank you Lord for this privledge and that it cost You so much to offer eternity for my sin. Thank You for loving me. Amen
