“And whosoever lives and believes in Me will never die…”
June 9, 2020
I heard a story about a boy who was dying on a battlefield. The chaplain was there, cradling this boy's head tenderly in his hands. The boy looked up and said, “Chaplain, am I going to live?” The chaplain looked down at his grievous wound and saw his life’s blood ebbing out. He knew that in just a matter of minutes the boy would be dead. He said to him, “Son, are you a Christian?” The boy gave a weak smile and said, “Sir, the happiest day in my life was when I gave my heart to Jesus Christ. Yes, I'm a Christian.” The chaplain said, “Then, son, you'll live!” And indeed, he will!
“And this is life eternal, that they might know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom You have sent” (John 17:3). Life is short, death is sure, sin is the cause, and Christ is the cure. Do you know Jesus, whom God has sent? Believe in Him. Trust in Him for your salvation. Then you too will live!
