Salvation Today

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. John 5:24

How often do we think of salvation as something that comes into effect when we die? It's about Heaven and Hell, right? Well, yes. And no. It is about that, but it's about so much more. Our problems don't start when we die, do they? So why would our salvation? We have a NOW salvation. We have a NOW God. When we get saved, eternal life begins immediately. Look at the verbs here: "hath"; "is". Present tense. Christ doesn't wait to save us, and salvation doesn't wait to kick in. Salvation is organic and living and RIGHT NOW. We need it's help and healing and life, and we need it today...and it's here. Today. Start enjoying your salvation and your eternal life today--they are already activated!
