Power to be the Sons of God! John 1:12

Man is seeking the supernatural. Desiring to be extra-terrestrial. Seeking for life after death. Seeking through science and science - fiction the keys to living forever in a supernatural existence!

What we are seeking is eternal life. Life that never ends. The solution to death. Thus in science -- stem cell research, cloning, cryogenics and in science -fiction, x-men, mutants, superman and all the superheroes. And on the dark side of our imagination --vampires, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde and so many other characters. And through them we live out our desires for the quest for eternal life!

Our fascination with life after death and for powers beyond our natural abilities is the result of our eternal connection with a supernatural, eternal Creator.

What man is really searching for is that which he lost, the power to be a son of God! We did not come from apes. But were made in the image and likeness of God. Genesis 1:27:

27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

And to return to being sons or off springs of God is what we are truly seeking. But through the wrong means which will ultimately bring us to death and destruction!

Science and theatre offers us their paths in our quest for eternity. But John an apostle of Jesus Christ, the Son of God reveals to us the only true path to eternal life:

12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: John 1:12 (Green is my emphasis)

Through Jesus Christ, we have been given the power or ability to become sons of God! And it is through believing in him that this power has been extended to us by God!

If you will repent of your sins and ask for his forgiveness, he will make you a son of God. It is through Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God that we also become sons God, by believing on his name!

Repent of your sins, and tell Jesus you believe and accept what he did for you on the Cross by dying for your sins so that you won't have to! You too will be born again and become a son of God! Don't put it off...

Do it today!

Jesus Heals a Withered Hand! Mark 3:1-5

Jesus is the same today as he was in the days of the Bible. He is the same and is doing the same miracles for people today as he did when he walked the earth in Israel. Let us look at the case of the man with the withered hand in Mark 3:1-5:

1 And he entered again into the synagogue and there was a man there which had a withered hand.
2 And they watched him, whether he would heal him on the sabbath day; that they might accuse him.
3 And he saith unto the man which had the withered hand, Stand forth.
4 And he saith unto them; Is it lawful to do good on the sabbath days or to do evil? to save life, or to kill? But they held their peace.
5 And when he had looked around about on them with anger, being grieved for the hardness of their hearts, he saith unto the man, Stretch forth thine hand. And he stretched it out: and his hand was restored whole as the other.

You may be thinking, "But that was then, and Jesus Christ no longer lives." Well I will say to you that Jesus Christ is alive today. Because after he was crucified, he was raised from the dead by the power of God three days later. And he has been alive ever since! Hebrews 13:8 says, "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day and forever."

This literally means that Jesus is doing today what he did then! Furthermore he has been doing miracles for people who called upon him in faith for 2,000 years. And he is ready to do the same for you!

Two millenia after Jesus died for our sins, rose from the dead and ascended to Heaven, there is more sickness and disease than there was when he walked the earth. If we ever needed his healing power, we need it today!

If you or someone in your family is sick or plagued with a disease, ask Jesus to heal you. You may not understand how he is able to do it. But just ask him in simple faith, believing that he will. And watch what he does!

Because Jesus is still the Healer!
