The resurrection and the life

 The resurrection and the life

In the gospel of John we read,

"Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies;  and whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?"

"Yes Lord" she told Him, "I believe you are the Christ the Son of God, who was to come into the world," John 11:25,26,27.

Jesus speaking of Himself said,

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” John 3:16.

Believing that Jesus is the Christ the Son of God, is the cornerstone of Christian belief. We Christians believe that by believing in Christ Jesus we will have eternal life with Him in heaven.

The way I see it I have nothing to lose by truly believing this.

Blaise Pascal wrote,

"Belief is a wise wager. Granted that faith cannot be proved, what harm will come to you if you gamble on its truth and it proves false? If you gain, you gain all; if you lose, you lose nothing. Wager, then, without hesitation, that He exists." Blaise Pascal.

So where will you place your wager?

Please think about it.
