Titus 1:2 In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began;
Beloved, I earnestly pray for you that you will not be a miserable person in Jesus name. But as you look at almost ninety five percent of those that profess religion or to be believers globally. They are classified and described by the Bible as miserable people.
Remember God has so many transient things that can make you to be fulfilled here on this side of heaven.
I pray He will bountifully give them to you in Jesus name. In addition to this transient things. He has one enduring eternal gift. Unfortunately, majority of these miserable believers , pursue only the transient things and despise the most important gift of life eternal. You shall not fall into the category of these miserable believers. See this.
Ecc 3:13 And also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy the good of all his labour, it is the gift of God.
Ecc 5:18 Behold that which I have seen: it is good and comely for one to eat and to drink, and to enjoy the good of all his labour that he taketh under the sun all the days of his life, which God giveth him: for it is his portion.
1 Timothy 6:17 Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy;
Beloved if because of perishable things you are seeking God, see how the Bible describe you.
1 Corinthians 15:19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.
Rev 3:15 — Rev 3:19 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see. As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.
Beloved, if you are not going to be part of these miserable believers, then embrace and receive this promised eternal life, a gift from God the Father.
Titus 1:2 In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began;
The promised gift had been fulfilled.
Jn 3:16 — Jn 3:17 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
Romans 5:8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
Romans 8:32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?
Beloved, now that God had fulfilled this promise through the shameful and painful death of His only begotten Son. See His wishes.
1Ti 2:3 — 1Ti 2:4 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Ezekiel 33:11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?
See, He is willing to forgive humanity whatever they have done wrong for them to have this enduring eternal gift. I am persuaded you have received this gift. Please don’t allow it to elude you. The consequence is devastating. It shall never be your portion.
Mic 7:18 — Mic 7:19 Who is a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he retaineth not his anger for ever, because he delighteth in mercy. He will turn again, he will have compassion upon us; he will subdue our iniquities; and thou wilt cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.
Dearly beloved, Jesus Christ, our Lord was the fulfilment of this great promise of God.
Titus 1:2 In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began;
See how our Lord fulfilled this great promise.
1. He stopped the onslaught of satan since the fall at Eden and restored dignity back to humanity. Hallelujah.
John 10:10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
2. He became the gracious deoendable Shepherd of His followers of all ages.
John 10:11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.
3. He gave them eternal life , that guarantees their safety from eternal damnation.
Jn 10:27 — Jn 10:28 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.
4. He gave them agape love.
John 15:13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
5. His keeping and praying for us from straying away from the narrow way that leads to life eternal.
John 17:12 While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.
John 17:15 I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.
John 17:17 Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.
He showed them exemplary lifestyle through which they could secure the life eternal.
John 17:19 And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth.
Lastly He prayed for them to make life eternal and live with Him forever.
John 17:24 Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.
The blessed Holy Spirit working in unison with Jesus come to reaffirm this great promise of God. See it.
Titus 1:2 In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began;
The scriptures affirmed them severally. See them
Romans 5:21 That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.
Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
1 Timothy 6:12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.
1Ti 6:17 — 1Ti 6:19 Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy; That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate; Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.
1Jo 5:11 — 1Jo 5:13 And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.
1 John 5:20 And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.
May God see to it that this great gift does not elude you in Jesus name.
Friend, if you truly wants to be part of the dawning rapture, then with your whole weight lean only on the promised eternal life , from the Father and His Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour.
Titus 1:2 In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began;
John 17:2 As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him.
John 17:3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.
This is because there are two certain eternal ends awaiting every humanity and you in particular.
Mat 25:46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.
The only few wise believers that shall live in eternity with God or partake in this imminent event are those that commit themselves to doing the following three things.
See them.
1. Lean wholly on His redemptive works alone for your eternal wellbeing.
Jn 3:14 — Jn 3:15 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
2. Leave all pursuit of ephemera and fully follow Jesus alone.
Mar 10:28 — Mar 10:30 Then Peter began to say unto him, Lo, we have left all, and have followed thee. And Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel’s, But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life.
3. Trustfully and unquestionably obey His directional voice through the scriptures.
Receive grace to do them in Jesus name.
