Jesus Is the Resurrection and the Life

(John 11:17-30)

Overseer Sung-Hyun Kim

God
lives forever.
When He
sent the Son to the world, He wanted to give eternal life
so that believers could be saved and live like God (Jn 3:16).
Consequently,
the Son of God came, and He is the life and resurrection (Jn 11:25-26).
Our faith is not individual conviction,
but it is about who you believe Jesus is (Mt 16:15).
The answer is to believe Jesus is the resurrection and the life.
For sure, everyone knows there is a resurrection on the last day (Rev 20:6).
Yet
the authority of Jesus’ name flows throughout heaven, earth,
and under the earth (Phil 2:10-11).
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today
and forever (Heb 13:8).
Raising the body from the dead is a gift from Jesus Christ
and can be gained in this life (Mt 10:7-8).
Jesus Christ’s healing is a gift for this age.
The kingdom of heaven should be strongly seized (Mt 11:12).
Since the kingdom of heaven should be strongly seized, you should try hard
to be healed by the Lord’s power, and step into His word and power.
The Lord searches deep into a person’s spirit,
marrow and even his tomb (Jn 11:39-44).
○ Firstly, you should believe. Believe in the Lord.
Then you will be healed.
○ Secondly, you should believe the word to live.
The Lord’s word is life. It is a life-giving spirit.
○ Thirdly, you should believe and obey for there to be signs.
The signs of Jesus Christ are testimonies.
※ Do not be reduced to the morality of peaceful religion,
but move like calves leaping from the barn,
acknowledge what you believe and glorify the Lord.
