Because I Live - Mr

"A little while longer and the world will see Me no more, but you will see Me. Because I live, you will live also." John 14:19 NKJV “Because I live, you will live too” - I paraphrase the perfect One. He lives for me. He lives for you. He is the Lord’s begotten son. He came to earth to show the way. “Because I live, you will live too” is meant for all who will obey and love Him as He wants you to. Love others, and for others do good works, and you’ll have your reward. “Because I live, you will live too” applies to those who love the Lord! Christ died for us upon the cross, so we – like Him – might rise anew. He told us there would be no loss. “Because I live, you will live too.” April 9, 2023

For Christ’s love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died. And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again. Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here! All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: 2 Corinthians 5:14?-?15?, ?17?-?18 NIV
