Jesus: The Resurrection and The life
(NASB) John 11:25 “Jesus said to her, ‘I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in Me will live even if he dies,
26 and everyone who lives and believes in Me will never die. Do you believe this?’”
Jesus’ question is for you today! Do you believe what He said?
What is important about believing the words of Jesus?
They are truth.
They are from God.
They are of God.
The words of Jesus are for everyone who believes Him.
Jesus never minced His words – He was direct and lovingly truthful.
Even when He said those things which are hard to hear – He loved people (you and me) too much to lie or ‘soft-pedal’ what He had to say. What we do with what He said does affect our relationship with Him.
So! Either you believe what He said or you don’t!
There was a time when I “bought in” to what the world believes; such as, about babies yet not born, about commitment in marriage, about how life evolved, about not paying the consequences for murder and crimes, about believing the politicians ‘promises’…etc.
When I became a believer in Jesus and what He said, my view point changed 180 degrees.
Do I believe what Jesus taught and what He said? If so, then I believe His words (all of them).
Jesus’ words are truth.
Jesus is God.
Jesus is the resurrection and the life…His death and resurrection are proof of His words.
Jesus died on the cross…and He was resurrected on the first day of the week. Hallelujah!
Jesus is The Resurrection and The life!
