IN THE BEGINNING OF TIME!
Genesis 1:1-5 - - - 14-19 - In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. And God called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. - - - And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: and let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so. And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: He made the stars also. And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth, and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good. And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.
Note: The word "time," appears over 600 times; "hour" about 100 times; "day" over 1700 times; "week" 13 times; "month" 250 times; "season" 56 times; and "year" over 350 times; in the King James Version of the Bible.
THE COMING OF THE END OF TIME ANNOUNCED!
Revelation 10:4-7 - And when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write: and I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not. And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven, and swore by Him Who lives forever and ever, Who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer: but in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as He had declared to His servants the prophets.
ETERNITY: TIME SHALL BE NO MORE!
Revelation 21:1-3; 22:5 - And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. And I John saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself shall be with them, and be their God. - - - And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God gives them light: and they shall reign forever and ever.
EVERLASTING LIFE VERSES ETERNAL LIFE!
The word "everlasting" appears 97 times, while "eternal" 47 times in the King James Version of the Bible. While the difference may seem unimportant to most, the difference is extremely important. "Everlasting life" begins at a point in time, and continues forever. "Eternal life" has neither a beginning nor and ending. However, one cannot have one without having both! There is a physical birth, when one is born of water; God offers us a spiritual birth when and if we trust in His Only Begotten Son (Jn. 3:3-7)!
ETERNAL LIFE IS BEING "IN CHRIST!"
Romans 1:19-20 - Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God has showed it unto them. For the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse....
1 John 5:11-12 - And this is the record, that God has given to us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He that has (by faith been baptized into - Rom. 6:3; 1 Cor. 12:13; Gal. 3:27) the Son has life; and he that has not (faith in) the Son of God does not have life.
EVERLASTING LIFE BEGINS WITH FAITH IN GOD!
Daniel 12:1-2 - And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which stands for the children of your people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time your people shall be delivered, everyone that shall be found written in the book. And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.
John 3:36 - All who believe on the Son have everlasting life: and those who do not believe in the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abides on them.
John 6:47 - Verily, verily, I say unto you, all who believe in Me have everlasting life.
ALL WHO HAVE ONE, ALSO HAS THE OTHER!
Deuteronomy 33:27 - The eternal God is thy refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms: and He shall thrust out the enemy from before you; and shall say, Destroy them.
Matthew 25:46 - And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.
1 Timothy 1:16-17 - Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might show forth all long suffering, for a pattern to those who should hereafter believe on Him to life everlasting. Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.
YOU BECAME A PERSON HAVING EVERLASTING LIFE AT CONCEPTION;
YOU BECOME A PERSON HAVING ETERNAL LIFE AT THE MOMENT YOU
TRUST IN THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, THE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON OF GOD!
YOU ARE GOING TO EXIST FOREVER;
IT WILL EITHER BE IN HEAVEN,
OR IN THE LAKE OF FIRE!
THE CHOICE IS YOURS!
