Blessed are those who can hear these hard words of Jesus and not turn away!
Blessed are those who realize – there’s no place else to go to find eternal life!
Blessed are those who are willing to have their sins and shortcomings removed and to be filled with all the fullness of God!
So who are you going to follow?
If we got out your checkbook and saw where all the money went, where would we conclude eternal life could be found?
If we followed you around for a day and saw how you spent your time, where would we conclude that eternal life could be found?
Let me ask it another way, when you consider your faith in Jesus Christ – do you recognize that even that faith is the gift of God?
Or do we think that trusting in Jesus Christ is a favor we’ve somehow done for the Lord? Is Jesus “Holy” to us?
Do Jesus’s demands upon us scandalize us? Or will we say “Yes Jesus, I really DO need to be filled with your fullness! I’m not anything on my own.”
