An Equation Worth Consideration

 

“Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life,

for God’s wrath remains on them.”

John 3:36


How about a little math?

What I mean is here are a couple of equations –

Belief + Son = Eternal Life

Son + Rejection = God’s Wrath

 

There you have it!

A mathematical way of expressing John 3:36

Both equations add up to this – it all hinges on what you do with the Son of God!

Nope, it’s not how much money you gave.

It’s not even how many good things you did.

By the way, don’t be fooled by ‘tolerance’ or ‘accommodation’ theology.

That is to say – all you need to do is believe in a supreme being and everything will work out. 

The wrath of God is not Him having a temper tantrum or pouting.

It is judgement on those who reject His provision – His one and only Son.

God’s wrath is brought upon people based upon their own choices, actions and decisions.

Where does God stand?

He has made a way – He has provided a Lamb.

God would prefer that none perish – not one.

His patience is longsuffering to us.

He will never ‘delight’ in pouring out His wrath.

We can have the life He provides this very moment.

Repent of your sin, confess your need and, by faith, receive His Son.

That’s’ an equation that will work out in anyone’s favor time after time!
