Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also. John 14:1-3, NKJV
We've probably all heard all the arguments, both pro and con, about Jesus and heaven. Is God real? Is Jesus really His son? What about Heaven and Hell--do they exist? Does everyone go to Heaven? Why would a loving and merciful God let anyone go to that place called Hell? Is there really going to be a rapture?
Folks, I don't know all the answers. All I know is that Jesus said He's God's Son. He said there's a Heaven and that He's going to get the place ready for those of us who love Him. I believe that. I haven't been hurt by believing that. You might even say that I've been blessed because I believe that. I'd agree with that!
Jesus said, "I Am the Way, the Truth, and the Life." And He said, "No one" (italics mine), and let me repeat that, "No one comes to the Father but by Me." To me that means He is the ONLY Way, the ONLY Truth, and the ONLY Life. Besides, I like life a lot better with Him in my life than I did without.
I've been on both sides of the arguments. I like this one best. I choose God.
What about you?
As for me, I'm going to live as if it's all true.
Even so, come, Lord Jesus.
