Thoughts for the day - 2/12/18
Therefore he is able to save completely those who come to God through him, because he always lives to intercede for them.
Hebrews 7:25 (NIV)
God did not send His only Son so that we could be partially saved if we were not fully worthy of full redemption. Our God is not a God of insincere promises or partial performance agreements. When you come to know Jesus, through the gift of the Holy Spirit, you are given life. Eternal life. Not half eternal, not half accommodations, not a partial relationship with the Father. But you are full member of the kingdom of heaven.
Live your day today with this truth, that the Holy Spirit that resides in you, is the same spirit today as tomorrow and the same that is in you, is in Jesus. You are His, all His and He keeps His promises.
Many Blessings.

Yes because Jesus did not come into the world to destroy, but through Him the world may have peace even more abundantly. Hallelujah!!!
Amen!
@bycoleman About the eternal life you mentioned in your post.The bible says that This life eternal that they may know you,the only true God and Jesus Christ whom you have sent. So,eternal life is not a life about living forever.It is a new life given to all who believes in Jesus Christ.
Have a very blessed day @stevekay!
Though we became full members of His kingdom by virtue of Christ's sufferings, death and resurrection, eternal life is still not assured even to one who claims to have known Christ. For if you have not love your neighbor as you love yourself you are not worthy of His Kingdom.
Knowing Christ means we live and do as He did in our words, thoughts and deeds which is next to impossible. That is why God sent us the Holy Spirit to guide us, inspire us, and strengthen us that we may learn to live as His Son did.
May the Holy Spirit enlighten our hearts in Jesus' name.
Amen.
You are right on brother.

And the community is growing fast!
That is true! Great to see that His children are willing to use different platform to glorify and honor Him!

That's it; short, clear and presiso, although one could make a quite extensive post of the promises of God, of the Holy Spirit and eternal life ... I loved it!
