2015. The International Year of Light.




'For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.'

2 Cor 11:13-14 


The real light is Jesus Christ.


'Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.'
John 8:12


'As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.'
 John 9:5


'I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness.'
John 12:46 


'And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.'

John 3:19-21



'To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.'
Acts 26:18



***


One day, you will die. Could that be today? Tomorrow? In a year maybe? Will it be in your sleep? How's about sitting on a sunny beach? On the way to work? Changing that fuse? Perhaps parking the car? Or maybe whilst out for your morning run? Will you trip on the stairs or over a broken paving slab? Slip in the shower or fall overboard?

Unpleasant thought isn't it. Not nice to think about such things.
The inevitable, I mean.

So then what? What happens next?



Jesus Christ is God. The only God. Who created you, the visible world you currently occupy, feel, touch. Everything you can see, hear, experience. He also created everything you can't see. That is, that you can't see - yet.

I pray to God that you won't be here to witness what is coming on this earth. The judgement that will be poured out on those who rejected the free gift of salvation. But that's entirely up to you isn't it?

If you are still alive today, still breathing and capable of making a choice, you can still repent and choose the only real truth. The only way through. The one and the only door to an eternal life in heaven.

Jesus Christ.




'Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.'
John 14:6
