We Now Have An Eteranl Life Free From Condemnation

"Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth My word, and believeth on Him that sent Me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. Verily, verily, I say unto you the hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live." John 5:24-25

We have passed from death, the place where God was unable to use and fellowship with us, unto life, the place where God can now freely be one with us as He eternally works through us! We will never thirst again and through Christ we will never be in darkness. "I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on Me should not abide in darkness." John 12:46 Through Christ we have crucified our flesh and its power to allow sin in has been destroyed! Every power of evil that came through the weakness of our flesh has been done away with, by the victorious power of Christ! "And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts." Galatians 5:24 The lusts of the flesh, the sin of the flesh, the burdens of the flesh, the sicknesses of the flesh, all have been crucified with Christ. Jesus has made us free and through Him we are free indeed! "Who His own self bare our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by Whose stripes ye were healed." 1 Peter 2:24 Through Jesus we are dead to sin! Through Jesus we live unto righteousness! And through Jesus we are healed, Christ has made us completely whole: spirit, soul, and body!
