A Child of God or A Person Condemned

A child of God or A person Condemned
Jesus said,
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.  
For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.  
Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.” 
                                                                                                            John 3:16-18
Are you prepared for eternity? Over the time I’ve been writing these blogs I’ve asked basically the same question. When you die will you stand before God as one of his children or as a criminal condemned?
John writes,
“Yet to all who received him(Jesus), to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God—  children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God.” 
                                                     John 1:12,13.
Jesus said as I have quoted above,
“Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.”
                                                                                                            John3:18 
There is no middle ground with Jesus any honest Christian will tell you that. You either believe who Jesus and accept him into your life or you do not. It’s that simple.
C. S. Lewis said,
“I am trying here to prevent anyone saying the really foolish thing that people often say about Him: I’m ready to accept Jesus as a great moral teacher, but I don’t accept his claim to be God. That is the one thing we must not say. A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher. He would either be a lunatic — on the level with the man who says he is a poached egg — or else he would be the Devil of Hell. You must make your choice. Either this man was, and is, the Son of God, or else a madman or something worse. You can shut him up for a fool, you can spit at him and kill him as a demon or you can fall at his feet and call him Lord and God, but let us not come with any patronizing nonsense about his being a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us. He did not intend to.”

If you accept Jesus is who he said he is then you must accept what he taught to be true. Ultimately the decision is yours.
Where do you stand with respect to Jesus?
Where will you spend eternity?
Think about it.
