“These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life” (1 John 5:13).
A short while ago the father of a Christian friend of mine died. He was a true Christian, and when he died, he went to be with the Lord. A short time later my friend told someone at his work that his father had died, and that his father had gone to be with Christ. But his coworker said, “You mean, you hope he is with Christ.” “No,” my friend said, “I know my father is with Christ, because the Word of God says so.
There are many things that are uncertain in the world today, and sadly, there are many people who say things that they know are not true. But God cannot lie, and when He says something in His Word, we can fully trust Him. God wants us to know that we have eternal life, because we believe on His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ.
