Show Notes

Today’s episode focuses on Jesus' statement "I am the Resurrection and the Life" in John 11:25, and the promise of eternal life for those who believe in Him. We highlight ten passages of scripture for meditation, including John 3:16 which emphasizes the love of God for humanity and the importance of faith in Christ, and Romans 5:8 which emphasizes Christ's sacrificial love for us. Other verses underscore the importance of trusting in Jesus and His resurrection, pursuing a life of holiness and obedience, sacrificial love for others, and the dynamic, life-changing power of hope in Christ. The episode concludes by encouraging listeners to answer Jesus' all-important question, “Do you believe this?” with a resounding “Yes, Lord, I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God who was to come into the world.”

 

Scriptures explicitly referenced include John 11:25-26; John 3:16; Luke 24:6-7; Romans 5:8; 1 Peter 2:24; 1 Corinthians 15:22; 1 John 3:16; 1 Peter 1:3; Romans 8:11; and 2 Corinthians 5:17. Additionally, the episode implicitly references other passages throughout the Bible, including the accounts of Lazarus in John 11, the creation and fall of man in Genesis, and various other passages that speak to the themes of salvation, love, and obedience to God.
