"The Word of Our God Shall Stand Forever."

Narrator: Chris Genthree
Listen from:
COLONEL ALLEN a noted infidel, had a favorite daughter on a dying bed. Being sent for to the bedside, she said to him. “Father! I feel that my end is drawing near. Tell me, am I to believe what you have taught me or what I have learned from my mother?” Her mother was a Christian, and had instilled the truths of salvation into the mind of her child.
The father paused, fixed his eyes on his child, his frame was convulsed with the struggle between pride and affection, truth and human reason. Presently, with quivering lips, he exclaimed, “Believe, my child, what your mother has taught you”.
All the accurately-argued sophistries of human imagination fail when brought to the realities of death and the great hereafter. Much as giant intellects would like to triumph over God, they have to bow before The Great I AM.
“He that believeth not, is condemned already.” “He that believeth on the Son HAT everlasting life.” John 3:18-3618He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. 22After these things came Jesus and his disciples into the land of Judea; and there he tarried with them, and baptized. 23And John also was baptizing in Aenon near to Salim, because there was much water there: and they came, and were baptized. 24For John was not yet cast into prison. 25Then there arose a question between some of John's disciples and the Jews about purifying. 26And they came unto John, and said unto him, Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond Jordan, to whom thou barest witness, behold, the same baptizeth, and all men come to him. 27John answered and said, A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven. 28Ye yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before him. 29He that hath the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom's voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled. 30He must increase, but I must decrease. 31He that cometh from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaketh of the earth: he that cometh from heaven is above all. 32And what he hath seen and heard, that he testifieth; and no man receiveth his testimony. 33He that hath received his testimony hath set to his seal that God is true. 34For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him. 35The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand. 36He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him. (John 3:18‑36).
