The Christian Life

Hello,

I am very sorry about not having posting a day after  the John 3:16 post.  It was caused because of an error that wouldn't let me post this part, so I am very sorry.

The passage for today is Matthew 7:7-12:

"7Ask and it will be given to you, seek and you will find, knock and the door will be opened to you.8  For everyone who asks recieves; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.

  9 Which of you, if his son asks for bread, will you give him a stone?  10Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake?  11If you, then, though are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in Heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!  12So in everything, do to others what they would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets."

Verse 7 says this to me.  Ask for the gift of eternal life, and it will be given to you.  When you seek Jesus, He will always be there for you to talk to.  He is waiting to let you in, He has given you this gift, but will you take it?  Verse 9-11 says that even evil people in this world know how to give good gifts to children so imagine what the gifts He can give us when we ask Him.  In verse 12, the golden rule is stated for it sums up the Old Testament.

I hope you appreciate these scriptures in Matthew.  The last part is over the Way to Heaven in Matthew 7:13-14.  Short one to finish off the Sermon on the Mount.  Tell me about what you would have us do next after the Sermon on the Mount.  Comment here or send a Private Message to Christian Life Ministries.
