~A child of God can be certain that a Bible story, lesson, commandment, Psalm, Proverb, parable, prophesy, allegory, metaphor, and any of the Bible’s figures of speech, etc., has a theme that is ultimately leading to beginning an eternal relationship with Jesus Christ through the repentance of sin and accepting Jesus as one’s Lord and Savior. Whether a segment of the Word is about the fruits of the Holy Spirit, the laws of differences, discernment, or the reactions of God and His children toward each other; all of the Word is directly, or a lead-in, to eternal life and Jesus Christ.
~There is no more of a precious and sacred gift than life, and no priority greater that the Bible addresses than of taking this life and extending it into eternal life through Jesus.
~Scripture reveals that a witness of the Word is a witness of Jesus; through who God’s mission to expand His Heavens of love, grace and truth is realized. The Spirit and Word guide a child of God to pray for divine meetings of fertile ground; planting seeds of wisdom into the ‘free will’ of the unsaved to come unto repentance and Jesus Christ. Children of God in modern times are more sophisticated to understand their needs, and only by a child of God facilitating a relationship with Jesus in others is a child of God facilitating true hope in others.
~Scripture reveals the urgency needed due to the limited ‘time’ in this life, to pray, council and testify of Jesus for the unsaved to repent and come to accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior.
~The analogy and repetitive character of the Word from Genesis to Revelation leads to beginning an eternal relationship with Jesus Christ by the repentance of sin and embracing Jesus as one’s Lord and Savior.
~Only through Jesus is life continued past this life. The only true and lasting hope that anyone has in this world or that they can speak of to loved ones, friends and strangers, is that of beginning an eternal relationship with Jesus Christ by taking a moment of time to pray in the sincere and overall repentance of sin and embracing Jesus as one’s permanent Lord and Savior.
Luke 24:27 And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, Jesus expounded unto them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself.
Jesus revealed in John 5:39 Search the Scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.
John 1:14 And the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
John 14:6 Jesus said unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no one comes unto the Father but by me. Romans 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. 1st Thessalonians 5:16 Rejoice evermore.
