Victory in Jesus The Gift of God

Jesus is the gift of God to mankind.

THE WAY OF JESUS IS VICTORY LEADING TO AN ABUNDANT LIFE!

On one occasion, Jesus stated His purpose in coming to this earth – “…I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly” -( John 10:10). A brother once defined life as the time between birth and death. This “abundant life” Jesus offers is more than life in the “hereafter”. Though God does not promise wealth or luxury, He does assure us that He will provide all that we need because our loving Father in Heaven, cares for His children – (Matt. 6:31-33). More than sufficient provision for those who are willing to follow Him – (Mark 10:29-30).

Indeed, we have a physical life to live but by no means is the grave our goal! “For dust you are, and to dust you shall return” , words spoken by God to Adam concerning the physical body that God created from the ground, and not concerning the eternal soul. As for the eternal soul Solomon wrote, “Then the dust will return to the earth as it was, and the spirit will return to God who gave it” (Eccl. 12:7).

But while we live Jesus offers an abundant life in, in work, in giving, in grace, love, joy and peace.  All who receive this life are blessed with forgiveness and victory over sin. Death is inevitable, Jesus offers eternal life.
