We are living in a Grace Period which spans from the time of the resurrection of Jesus Christ until the time He returns to bring history to its proper conclusion. Only God knows the day and the hour. For you, it is from the time your are born until the time you die or until Christ returns. It is the reason you exist on the earth— it is what your life on earth is all about. Some miss it even though they lived long lives. They have no excuse and neither do you and I.
The reality, whether people want to believe it or not, is that eternity is a long, long time to be wrong. Don’t be wrong about the only need you need to be right about.
We are living in a “grace period” the time between and the resurrection of Jesus Christ and His triumphant return, and our time here on the earth is limited. The reason you exist on the earth is to restore your relationship with God that was broken by sin; the redemption of sin and evil by God’s grace through your genuine repentance and faith in Jesus Christ. It is the only reason you are here. It is the ultimate success, the only “real” success in this world.
It is the only reason God created the massive universe with all of its complexities. With over 2 trillion galaxies and approximately 400 sextillion stars in the observable universe, if one piece was missing or misplaced or if not enough time had passed, if the God, the Creator had not fine-tuned it all to perfection, human life on this tiny blue speck called Earth could not have existed. And if the conditions of the earth were not absolutely perfect, it it was just a little closer to the sun, we would all burn up. If it was just a little further away, we would all freeze to death. Earth is the only place in this enormous universe where human life can exist, but only for a certain period of time, this “grace period” in which we are in now.
My most important blessings are those which are “everlasting” after our temporary “grace period” on Earth is over.
In our short time in this place, we are living in a “Grace Period” where the most important thing is to learn about God’s love, His grace and His mercy and how He Himself through His Son Jesus Christ died on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins so we wouldn’t have to and then to receive His free gift of grace through repentance and faith in Christ, to live the rest of your life according and to share the Good News of Jesus Christ with anyone and everyone, in every possible way. Our life-changing salvation was purposed by the divine plan of God, the creator of the Heavens and the Earth, THE God, the one true God and the only living God. It was accomplished by Jesus through His death and resurrection and was applied by the Holy Spirit through a spiritual rebirth where we born again as new creations in Jesus Christ with a new heart, a new way of thinking and a new way of living- all eternal life changing events. So pay close attention to your purpose in this life and make your salvation a sense of urgency above everything else. Do not live here and leave here without it. Eternity is a long, long time to be wrong! Don’t be wrong.
We are living in a “grace period” and there is not much time. The redemption of sin and evil by God’s grace through your repentance and faith in Jesus Christ is the reason you exist on the earth. It is why the entire universe was created. It is the only reason you are here. It is the ultimate success, the only “real” success in this world.
You’ll find out everything about Heaven when you arrive. Make that arrival in Heaven a top priority in your earthly life. It is in essence, the purpose of your life in the “Grace Period” on Earth.
We are living in a grace period— the time between and the death of Jesus Christ and His triumphant return through His resurrection and our time here on the earth is limited.
The reason you exist on the earth, the reason the universe was even created, is to restore your relationship with God that was broken by sin— the redemption of sin and evil by God’s grace through your genuine repentance and saving faith in Jesus Christ.
It is the only reason you are here. It is the ultimate success, the only “real” success in this world.
It is the only reason God created the massive universe with all of its complexities. With over 200 billion galaxies and approximately 400 billion, trillion stars, if one piece was missing or misplaced or if not enough time had passed, if the Creator had not fine-tuned it all to perfection, human life on this tiny blue speck called Earth could not have existed. If the earth was just a little closer to the sun, we would all burn up. If it was just a little further away, we would all freeze to death.
Earth is the only place in this enormous universe where human life could exist, but only for a certain period of time, this “grace period” in which we are in now.
Notes: Until we die or until Christ returns.
The Grace Period
We are living in a “grace period,” the time between and the resurrection of Jesus Christ and His triumphant return, and our time here on Earth is limited— we don’t know when we are going to die and we do not know the day and hour when Christ will return.
The reason you exist on the earth is for you to be reconciled with God and restore your relationship with Him that was broken due to sin. It is the redemption of sin and evil through the blood of Christ and received only by God’s grace through faith in Jesus. It is the only reason you exist, the only reason you are here. It is the ultimate success, the only “real” success in this life.
It is the only reason God created this massive universe with all of its complexities. With over 200 billion galaxies and approximately 400 billion, trillion stars, if one piece was missing or misplaced, if God had not fine-tuned it all to perfection, human life on this tiny blue speck called Earth could not have existed. The Earth is perfectly positioned and the only place in this where human life could exist, but only for a certain period of time, this “grace period” in which we are now in.
It is by His grace that God gives us what we need— a Savior, and not what we deserve— death, separation from God, and eternal punishment; His rightful judgment for sin.
It is imperative for you to understand that because of the curse and consequences of sin we are all born “not saved” in Adam— lost, without faith in Christ— spiritually “dead” in our sin, and condemned without hope.
Our responsibility is to hear a clear presentation of the gospel message and not ignore it or suppress it, and trust the Holy Spirit to do what only he can do— convict you of sin and lead you to genuine repentance and grant you saving faith in Jesus Christ. We are saved by grace through faith.
This is the eternal life-changing decision that must be made before you die or before Christ returns. Eternity lasts forever and ever and forever and ever is a long, long time to be wrong!
Don’t be wrong!
