(JESUS CHRIST)
(THE ONE AND ONLY TRUE GOD)
David Abankwah
SERIES: Day 12
And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us an understanding, that we may know Him who is true; and we are in Him who is true, in His Son JESUS CHRIST. THIS IS THE TRUE GOD AND ETERNAL LIFE.
-I John 5:20 | NKJV
The Book of life hosts the names of those who have eternal life. Today when someone thinks he or she confesses Jesus Christ as His Lord and Master, he or she has eternal life. If you don’t know who Jesus Christ is, you can’t have the eternal life that is in Him. There are so many leaders of many religions in this world but there is no one who had ever died and rose again. There is no one who has eternal life in him or her because, from the beginning of this world until now, those who once died have not risen again. How can someone who doesn’t have eternal life give you one? There is a saying that, ‘what you have, is what you give.’ You can’t give eternal life if you don’t have it.
If you are a worshipper of any religion apart from Christianity, you are wasting your time. There was one time the Jews were baffled at the saying of Jesus Christ when He openly declared that: ¹⁷“Therefore My Father loves Me, because I LAY DOWN MY LIFE THAT I MAY TAKE IT AGAIN. ¹⁸No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself. I HAVE POWER TO LAY IT DOWN, AND I HAVE POWER TO TAKE IT AGAIN. This command I have received from My Father” -John 10:17-18 | NKJV. He went on to say that: ³⁹YOU SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES, FOR IN THEM YOU THINK YOU HAVE ETERNAL LIFE; and these are they which testify of Me.
⁴⁰BUT YOU ARE NOT WILLING TO COME TO ME THAT YOU MAY HAVE LIFE -John 5:39-40 | NKJV. God is the Word who became flesh and this One and Only True God who has eternal life from eternity to eternity, is called Jesus Christ. Apostle John knew this and testified that: IN HIM WAS LIFE, and THE LIFE WAS THE LIGHT OF MEN -John 1:4 | NKJV. To have this eternal life, you have to accept Jesus Christ as the One and Only True God which in order words some say as Lord and Master. Some confess Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour but they don’t want to accept that He is the One and Only True God. Such confession is false!
There are many people who have confessed Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour but their names are not yet written in the Book of Life because their faith is wrong. What Lord and Saviour do you think Jesus Christ is if He is not your God? When Thomas saw Jesus Christ after His resurrection proving that He is the Living God, he said: …..“MY LORD AND MY GOD!” -John 20:28 | NKJV. It will shock many believers that after they die and they are shown the exit door to Hell, they will question Jesus Christ why such a decision because they once believed in Him and He will tell them their faith in Him as Saviour and not God, was not right.
