JOHN 6:41-71 - WORDS OF ETERNAL LIFE - BRIAN SUMNER - 2025John 6:41 "The Jews then complained about Him, because He said, “I am the bread which came down from heaven.” 42 And they said, “Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How is it then that He says, ‘I have come down from heaven'?”43 Jesus therefore answered and said to them, “Do not murmur among yourselves. 44 No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him; and I will raise him up at the last day. 45 It is written in the prophets, ‘And they shall all be taught by God.' Therefore everyone who has heard and learned from the Father comes to Me. 46 Not that anyone has seen the Father, except He who is from God; He has seen the Father. 47 Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me has everlasting life. 48 I am the bread of life. 49 Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and are dead. 50 This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that one may eat of it and not die. 51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread that I shall give is My flesh, which I shall give for the life of the world.”52 The Jews therefore quarreled among themselves, saying, “How can this Man give us His flesh to eat?”53 Then Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in you. 54 Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. 55 For My flesh is food indeed, and My blood is drink indeed. 56 He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood abides in Me, and I in him. 57 As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so he who feeds on Me will live because of Me. 58 This is the bread which came down from heaven—not as your fathers ate the manna, and are dead. He who eats this bread will live forever.”59 These things He said in the synagogue as He taught in Capernaum.Many Disciples Turn Away60 Therefore many of His disciples, when they heard this, said, “This is a [m]hard saying; who can understand it?”61 When Jesus knew in Himself that His disciples complained about this, He said to them, “Does this offend you? 62 What then if you should see the Son of Man ascend where He was before? 63 It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life. 64 But there are some of you who do not believe.” For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and who would betray Him. 65 And He said, “Therefore I have said to you that no one can come to Me unless it has been granted to him by My Father.”66 From that time many of His disciples went back and walked with Him no more. 67 Then Jesus said to the twelve, “Do you also want to go away?”68 But Simon Peter answered Him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life. 69 Also we have come to believe and know that You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”70 Jesus answered them, “Did I not choose you, the twelve, and one of you is a devil?” 71 He spoke of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, for it was he who would betray Him, being one of the twelve."To support this channel and partner with Brian in Ministryhttps://www.briansumner.net/support/For more on Brianhttp://www.briansumner.nethttps://www.instagram.com/BRIANSUMNER/https://www.facebook.com/BRIANSUMNEROFFICIALTo listen to Brians Podcast, click below.https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...Purchase Brians Marriage book at https://www.amazon.com/Never-Fails-Da...Brian is a full time "Urban Missionary" both locally and internSupport the showSUPPORT THE SHOW

Dean Garrett, who is an emeritus professor of Church History and Doctrine, a former member of the Mount Timpanogos Temple Presidency, and a former Mission President. Together they explore the historical background of Section 88 along with what it teaches about the Second Comforter and Eternal Life. They explore how this section is both about how to prepare to be holy enough for the temple by holding the School of the Prophets in the Lord's proscribed way -- which leads to holiness -- and how those same instructions should be applied to being in the temple, which will help us become more holy as we go through the temple. They also explore light and truth and the atoning sacrifice of Christ as best understood in a context of holiness and temples. They talk about how temples are necessary to help us get to where God wants us to be. They also look at how consecration is intertwined with temples and how missionary work is as well. They also look at Old Testament connections with the temple. They look at how temples are supposed to be schools of instruction. They look at teachings about solemn assemblies.

The Words of Eternal Life 60 When many of his disciples heard it, they said, “This is a hard saying; who can listen to it?” 61 But Jesus, knowing in himself that his disciples were grumbling about this, said to them, “Do you take offense at this? 62 Then what if you were to see the Son of Man ascending to where he was before? 63 It […]

Welcome to Episode #178 of the Way of the Bible podcast. This is our second of eight episodes in our Twenty-Third mini-series entitled The Return of Jesus Christ [Part 2]. On today's episode, we'll continue our look at Old Testament passages that speak of the most written about time in the Bible, the return of Jesus Christ to judge the world in righteousness on the Day of the Lord.Before we get there, let's remember a couple of things. First, I am not here to convince anyone to believe the eschatological position I adhere to (view of the end times or the end of time). Based upon my own studies, I hold to a pretribulation and premillennial view, which ascribes to the aerial return of Jesus for the snatching away of His bride before the wrath of God is unleashed. I'll cover this in detail on later episodes.There are at least four and as many as six, alternative eschatological positions out there. Each having their own scriptural basis', historical applications, and theological understandings. Of all the positions, the one I hold is the oldest and now least held within Christendom today. You can think of my view as the remnant of eschatological entropy. I encourage you not to believe just because I say so, but to do your own research and see where the Scriptures lead. Hopefully, I'll give you an inkling of the many places to look for the answers, as there are answers. But there is also tension in the Bible, purposefully placed there by the Holy Spirit for His reasons yet disclosed.Here's the maxim to remember. Your epistemology (how you know what you know; your theory of learning), determines your hermeneutics (how you approach the Bible, Liberally-The Bible is interpreted metaphorically and allegorically; Or Conservatively-The Bible says what it means and is interpreted to mean what it says). Your hermeneutics determines your Eschatology (What happens at the end of all time – The end of the story). Your Eschatology determines your Ecclesiology (Role of the Church – the Body of Christ – in the world until the END).And it is within that maximal web that the dispersion of end-time views originates. And the beginning of the dispersion occurs immediately in the first three chapters of the Bible. The Creation account. Is this metaphorical, allegorical, a myth, or did it happen as the Scriptures insinuate? (Adam, the first man, is included in the genealogy of Jesus in Luke 3:38; Jesus quoted verses from Genesis 1 and 2, saying in Matthew 9:4-6 – “Haven't you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,' 5 and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh'? 6 So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.”). All this to say that as I proceed, I am presenting text, believing God meant for the text to be understood to mean what it says; unless otherwise noted. God used man and the language of the day at the time the texts were written to communicate to us in 2025 what he wants us to know. God sees all things at the same time from the end to the beginning. Thus, He was able to give prophetic utterances by the Holy Spirit to the writers who were guided by the same Spirit to write what was given to them to write. My studies have convinced me that even the letters and spaces between the letters were all preordained by God and contain unphantonable treasures of wisdom and knowledge for those willing to look. With that, let's jump into a few passages on the Day of the LORD. The first one is from Isaiah. I included it in an earlier episode, but it is one worth repeating. Listen as the extent of the destruction on this day. The scale is not just local but is global in scale. God is coming to judge the world and the sinners in it. The earth itself will wobble on its axis of rotation…
What does the Bible really say about eternal life? In Part II of this series (See Episode 541 for Part I), Steve Wood unpacks what happens after the Second Coming—not just souls in heaven, but resurrected bodies on a renewed Earth with Jesus. We explore the often-missed Catholic teaching on divinization—our transformation by God's grace to share in His divine nature. Backed by Scripture (1 John 3:2, 2 Peter 1:4) and the Catechism (CCC 460), this episode also draws from Church Fathers like St. Irenaeus, St. Athanasius, and St. Thomas Aquinas.

The fifth benefit of seeking God…eternal life
Simon Peter answered him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.” — John 6:68 Crowds can be fickle, switching quickly from enthusiasm to rejection and even violence. Sometimes these dramatic swings are triggered by just a few words. Jesus' hard teaching in John 6 shows that his words can trigger rejection or lead to life. As Jesus' reputation grew, the crowds of people around him dramatically increased. Why? Because he was a wonder worker. Just a day or two earlier, Jesus had fed a huge crowd of several thousand people (John 6:1-15). But while the crowds were drawn to his miraculous works, they didn't always like his surprising teachings. At the synagogue in Capernaum, he had told the crowd that if they wanted to have eternal life, they had to eat his body and drink his blood (6:53-59). Turned off by that imagery, many people rejected Jesus and left. Jesus asked his closest disciples if they wanted to leave too. Speaking on behalf of them all, Peter asked, “Lord, to whom shall we go?” And then he made this bedrock confession: “You have the words of eternal life.” When the Holy Spirit softens our hearts and opens our eyes to faith in Christ, we can see Jesus for who he really is, just as Peter did. Jesus is the Son of God, our only truth for faith and life. And then, like Peter, we can also trust him as we live and serve. Jesus, only “you have the words of eternal life.” Help us to follow you faithfully as we live and serve in your name each day. Amen.

Awakening to Eternal Life - Into the Mystical Christ Academy Movie Session with David HoffmeisterAs a warm-up to this year's Mystical Christ Academy gathering, David uses a movie to emphasize that the ego creates a fictitious world of time and space, distracting us from our true identity as the Christ, the perfect Son of God. He conveys that concepts like birth, death, and emotional turmoil are illusions that do not reflect reality. David refers to lessons from A Course in Miracles, particularly the idea that nothing real can be threatened and nothing unreal exists. In the movie session, participants are encouraged to recognize that the events in the movie unfolding are merely projections of a mind lost in illusion. David focuses on the notion that true peace comes from realizing the eternal nature of existence, beyond the drama of the physical world. The gathering was translated to Spanish on a different channel, but at 2hours and 52 minutes, the power shut down, and Marina had to translate David consecutively.Sign up for the Mystical Christ Academy 2025, starting August 15: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/mystical-christ-academy-2025For more information about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, visit https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Recorded live on August 2, 2025, at Casa Quatico, Chapala, Mexico.

To Be a Jesus Follower, You Must First Enter the Only Door to God's Kingdom and that Door is Jesus – the Door to Eternal Life MESSAGE SUMMARY: In John 14:6, Jesus says: “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life; no one come to the Father but through me.”. In Luke 13:23-25, Jesus is asked a pivotal question; and Jesus responded: “And someone said to him, ‘Lord, will those who are saved be few?' And he said to them, “Strive to enter through the narrow door. For many, I tell you, will seek to enter and will not be able. When once the master of the house has risen and shut the door, and you begin to stand outside and to knock at the door, saying, ‘Lord, open to us,' then he will answer you, ‘I do not know where you come from.'”. It is not that Jesus does not want all to be saved, it is just that the “gate”, to our Salvation and Eternal Life, is “narrow” and difficult to enter. We enter Eternal Life through Jesus and Jesus alone, and so many miss this fundamental tenant of our Christian faith; and they miss knowing Jesus – Jesus is the door, the narrow door. Neither Islam, nor Hinduism, nor just “my personal religion” is the door – Jesus is the only door. TODAY'S PRAYER: Keeping the Sabbath, Lord, will require a lot of changes in the way I am living life.

The Sermons on the Amount, Part 3 - You are God's Supervisor MESSAGE SUMMARY: This Sermon series assembles important Biblical references to all aspects of money and finances and their influence and impact on us; therefore, helping us to apply these Scriptures to our lives today. The reason for this series is because money and possessions have captivated our culture. Jesus' “Parable of the Talents”, in Matthew 25:14-30, tells us a great deal about our responsibilities and accountability regarding the “talents” that God has given us – also, we are to supervise these “talents” that God has given us. We have been given different “talents” by God; and God will give us blessings based on how we supervised the “talents” which He has given us; however, God will punish us if our supervision is not acceptable to Him. Stewardship – we are God's Supervisors, which is an awesome responsibility. As God declared and challenged us in Genesis 1:26-27: “Then God said, ‘Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.' So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.". Therefore, humankind is supervisor all that God, the Creator of the Universe, created. With this awesome responsibility of stewardship, God has given us some instructions in Scripture to help us in this responsibility: 1) God has entrusted us with those “talents” that He has given us and He provides the opportunity for more; 2) God expects us to use what He has given us and according to His will – involve God in the process; 3) God has provided for our needs and enjoyment but, also, God expects us to address the needs of others; 4) God expects us to work using our “talents”, skills, and gifts; 5) God expects us to abide with His principles regarding money – a) the first part of our “increase” is Holy and Sacred to God (God is owner), b) tithing (God owns all and the first 10 percent is returned to Him as the prophet Malachi tells us in Malachi 3:10: “Bring the full tithe into the storehouse {e.g., Church}, that there may be food in my house. And thereby put me to the test, says the LORD of hosts, if I will not open the windows of heaven for you and pour down for you a blessing until there is no more need.".). c) giving is Worship, and d) saving; and 6) God will hold us accountable. God has entrusted us with what He has given, and He has provided us with the opportunity for more. You cannot out give God; and God is always faithful. TODAY'S PRAYER: Keeping the Sabbath, Lord, will require a lot of changes in the way I am living life. Teach me, Lord, how to take the next step with this in a way that fits my unique personality and situation. Help me to trust you with all that will remain unfinished and to enjoy my humble place in your very large world. In Jesus' name, amen. Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 129). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: I affirm that because of what God has done for me in His Son, Jesus, I AM A CHILD OF GOD. Yet to all who received Him, to those who believed in His Name, He gave the right to become children of God-- children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God. John 1:12f SCRIPTURE REFERENCE (ESV): Matthew 25:14-30; Genesis 1:26-27; Matthew 21:31-41; 1 Timothy 6:17; Acts 20:35; Genesis 2:15; Proverbs 14:23; 1 Thessalonians 4:11-12; Proverbs 10:14; Proverbs 18:9; 2 Thessalonians 3:10; Proverbs 3:9-10; Leviticus 27:30; Malachi 3:8-12; Proverbs 23:5; Exodus 23:15; Proverbs 6:6-8.

John 6:66-69 As a result of this, many of His disciples withdrew and were not walking with Him anymore. So Jesus said to the twelve, “You do not want to go away also, do you?” Simon Peter answered Him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have words of eternal life. We have believed and have come to know that You are the Holy One of God.” Simon Peter spoke up for the twelve and expressed what all believe who have been born again by the Spirit. We believe Jesus has the words of eternal life. As Jesus said only a minute or two previously, “The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and are life.” Those who are the true branches in the Vine abide in Him, and His words abide in them. In John 14:23 Jesus said, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our abode with him.” Believing Jesus has the words of eternal life, we keep them. No one else has the words of life. Simon Peter and the rest of the twelve, with the exception of Judas, knew from the words Jesus had spoken that He was the Holy One of God, the Messiah, the Christ. That was enough for them. When others were walking away, the twelve stayed with Jesus. Even though they probably didn't understand all that Jesus said, they heard enough to know that He was the One sent from God so they might have eternal life. Could you also make the same confession as Simon Peter? I hope so. Where else could we turn to find and experience the love of God through a person other than Jesus? They thought there were other teachers who were more understandable and who presented more palatable ideas than cannibalism. They decided it wasn't worth their time to hang out and listen until they understood what He meant. Who we listen to tells a lot about us. According to the apostle John in his first epistle, who we listen to reveals where we are from. 1 John 4:1. “Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.” Then in verses 5-6, he made the connection between origin and who we listen to. “They are from the world; therefore they speak as from the world, and the world listens to them. We are from God; he who knows God listens to us; he who is not from God does not listen to us. By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.” That's what Jesus basically said in this encounter in Capernaum's synagogue. He told them they were not from His Father, because if they were, they would listen to Him and believe. The fact that they didn't have ears to hear Him revealed that the Father had not brought them to Him. The encouragement we draw from these verses is that Jesus' disciples who live to love with Him are the antithesis of the so-called disciples who walked away. We are like Simon Peter. We stay with Jesus even when we are faced with difficult truth because we know He has the words of life. As we meet those God puts in our paths, we wait for the Holy Spirit to give us the words that will bring life to them. That's one of the many ways we love them. We trust in the power of God and the life-giving words of Christ. Maybe it's a great question to ask people as we share with them about Jesus. Do you know anyone else who has the words of eternal life? I invite you to become a partner in our ministry. Would you pray about becoming a regular supporter of Elijah Ministries and the Live to Love with Jesus ministry? I hope you will receive the joy and benefit of "giving it forward," so others may receive encouragement to turn their hearts to God and to live to love with Jesus.

El transhumanismo propone que, gracias a la tecnología, que los seres humanos aumenten sus capacidades para hacer lo que ningún ser humano puede hace. La idea es crear "humanos aumentados" que vivan mucho más tiempo (quizás eternamente), que piensen mucho más rápido o que controlen totalmente su salud física y emocional. Esos aumentos tecno-genéticos dejaron de ser posibilidades de la ciencia-ficción para convertirse en objeto de investigación y desarrollo científico y tecnológico. En estos días la revista norteamericana Christianity Today publica un ensayo de Miroslav Volf, profesor de Teología en Yale UNiversity, donde explora las implicaciones del transhumanismo ante la idea de los seres humanos hemos sido "creados a imagen de Dios" (Imago Dei). Interesantemente, las implicaciones éticas y sociales del transhumanismo no son tan optimistas como la posibilidad de erradicar las limitaciones que anclan al ser humano a su mortalidad. A fin de cuentas, el evangelio no capitaliza en cuanto vamos a vivir, como en la manera en la que debemos vivir.Dona a Radio Moody: https://give.moodyradio.org/radio-moody/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Your DNA holds the blueprint for eternal life—and it's reawakening now.In this episode, Dr. Samuel B. Lee, MD transmits a powerful revelation on the return of the 12-strand DNA and humanity's reconnection to the Original Eternal Source. From the fall of the celestial human blueprint to the present-day resurrection of the inner Christos, this episode is a spiritual, scientific, and metaphysical masterclass on the return of eternal life consciousness to Earth.Dr. Lee walks us through the long-lost base-12 bio-regenesis code, the morphogenetic fields encoded in our cells, and the critical choice point humanity now faces between artificial life systems and eternal life sovereignty. With clarity, courage, and cosmic remembrance, he unpacks the roles of the 144,000 starseeds, the fall of the Metatron collective, and the reactivation of Earth's stargates through grid work and frequency embodiment.This episode is more than a message—it's a divine call to remember who you are and reclaim your direct connection to Source.

Guest sermon from Brian Tsui.
Sunday AM 07-27-2025. Verse-by-Verse through The Gospel of Mark.
This week, we continue our exploration around "The Fire of God", and the idea that His fire is not something that we observe from a distance, rather we are active participants in. Our life in Christ makes us not simply fire-resistant, we are fire-COMPATIBLE! We carry divine flame because we were built for it - not to be consumed by it, but to bring its light into the world!

Welcome to Episode #177 of the Way of the Bible podcast. This is our first of eight episodes in our Twenty-Third mini-series entitled The Return of Jesus Christ. On today's episode, we'll begin our look at Old Testament passages that speak of the most written about time in the Bible, the return of Jesus Christ to judge the world in righteousness on the Day of the Lord.Central to our last miniseries, this miniseries, and at least one more mini-series on the topic of the Return of Jesus Christ, is the Harpazo, or snatching away, of the Church before the great tribulation that is coming upon the entire world. Not one nation, people group, or person will be untouched by the wrath of God to be unleashed upon the earth.Rest assured believers, we will not be there when the wrath of God is unleased, as the Bible clearly says in multiple places. And we'll go into that in detail in the weeks ahead, but not yet in this miniseries.We are still building the foundation, the bulk of which is found in the Old Testament. So let's get started.
John 6:46-47 Not that anyone has seen the Father, except the One who is from God; He has seen the Father. Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes has eternal life. Jesus had just told the crowd that all who are taught by the Father and learn from the Father come to Him. In these verses, He clarifies that the Father has only been seen by the Son, the One who is from God. The one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God already has eternal life. In other words, faith in Jesus is the witness of God that the Father has taught them, and they have learned from Him that Jesus is the One sent by the Father into this world to give life. Do you remember this question: Which comes first, the chicken or the hen? We are faced with a similar question with a similar answer: Which comes first, eternal life or faith? It depends on your perspective. In these verses, we would have to say that eternal life comes first. If we back up a few verses to verse 40, “For this is the will of My Father, that everyone who beholds the Son and believes in Him will have eternal life, and I Myself will raise him up on the last day.” From this perspective, we would have to say, faith comes first. Okay, which is it? First, we know that Jesus can't be confused when He said both of these statements. They are both true. Although we may not be able to understand completely, we can conclude this. God gives a person eternal life. The evidence of that life is faith in Christ. Once one believes in Jesus as the Son of God, the giver of life, he will have eternal life in the future because the life He has received is eternal. If it could pass away, it wouldn't be eternal life. Does that make sense to you? I hope so. At the end of the day, God gets all the glory, so everything must originate with His will. We live to love with Jesus because we have eternal life and know He is working with the Father to do His will. It is a privilege to walk with Jesus in love. May we rejoice in God's great love toward us in that while we were still sinners, Jesus died for us, and the Father has testified that we are justified and loved by giving us faith in Christ. We will have eternal life in the future because we have it now! What good news we have to share with those God puts in our paths today. Eternal life begets eternal life. I invite you to become a partner in our ministry. Would you pray about becoming a regular supporter of Elijah Ministries and the Live to Love with Jesus ministry? I hope you will receive the joy and benefit of "giving it forward," so others may receive encouragement to turn their hearts to God and to live to love with Jesus.

Let's talk.
What does it really mean to believe in Jesus—and what difference does it make? In this week's message, we’ll explore how faith in Jesus as the Son of God is not only the foundation of our salvation, but also the source of our victory, our identity, and our fellowship with God.
EVEN MORE about this episode!What if facing death could actually teach us how to live more fully? In this powerful episode, we dive into the heartbreaking yet inspiring story of Andreas, a young boy battling terminal cancer—and the legal, medical, and spiritual obstacles his family endured while honoring his end-of-life wishes.Together with spiritual advocate Donna Corso, we expose the cold realities many parents face when choosing alternative or holistic treatments, and how compassion often gets lost in the clinical system. From international medical journeys to legal showdowns, Andreas' story shines a light on the deep flaws—and surprising beauty—of how we approach death.We also explore the spiritual side of dying: grief rituals from around the world, lessons from the Tibetan Book of the Dead, and how love, not fear, can guide us through the unknown. Whether you're navigating loss or simply curious about what lies beyond, this episode is a moving exploration of life, death, and the soul's eternal journey.Guest Biography:Donna Corso is an author, public speaker, interfaith/metaphysical minister, Reiki healer and Dream Builder life coach. Her book, When the Wind Chimes Chime: Ending the Greatest Fear of All, encourages us to release our fear of death/dying. She lives in Waynesville, NC and has been personal assistant to Neale Donald Walsch, best-selling author of Conversations with God, for 23 years.Episode Chapters:(0:00:00) - Conversations on Death and Healing(0:10:45) - Controversy in End-of-Life Care(0:26:10) - Grief Rituals and Acceptance of Death(0:37:20) - Spiritual Perspectives on Death and Transition(0:51:05) - Ascension and Fifth Dimension Explanations(0:59:06) - Sending Love and Gratitude➡️Subscribe to Ask Julie Ryan YouTube➡️Subscribe to Ask Julie Ryan Español YouTube➡️Subscribe to Ask Julie Ryan Português YouTube➡️Subscribe to Ask Julie Ryan Deutsch YouTube➡️Subscribe to Ask Julie Ryan Français YouTube✏️Ask Julie a Question!

So say the Founding Fathers of this great country in 1776, the Creator of all and all things endowed every human being so born with unalienable rights. Those rights, God-given, could not be changed or eliminated in any way by mankind. They were part of the DNA, the genetic inheritance of every man and woman at birth and through all of life. Those unalienable rights were the cornerstone of the new nation, that which made America the shining light on the hill, an example to all mankind and all nations, making America both different and better, a model of hope and understanding for all.LIFE. The Declaration of Independence prioritized life, that all should live life to the fullest. The Great Creator, God the Father, fully agreed. The Son of that Father was the epitome of that life. Even as the Founding Fathers were concerned with life here, and the natural laws which protected that life, then came a higher law, the highest moral law, in the person of Jesus Christ. He told us that whoever finds Him, finds life, real life, a life which no natural law can give. He told us that He was the Bread of Life, that partaking of the Bread and Blood would transform any human life and bring it to the next level.The Founding Fathers took their inspiration for life, at least to some extent, from Him. But the life promised by Jesus Christ was not only for here and now, but for eternity:ETERNAL LIFE.To be sure, life here should be an abundant life, so He said, “And the Christ of Glory, Jesus of Nazareth, was concerned that our joy might be full, again, here and hereafter.” The resurrection promised us that new life, a saving proposition which formed the belief of many of the Founding Fathers. There was, said to Christ, the BOOK OF LIFE in which the name of all who believe would be written. That was the written indication of the guarantee of life eternal. Natural law and all that was envisioned by the Founding Fathers was taken to the next level, the highest possible moral level, by Jesus Christ. What a blessing to have a life abundant here, but much more importantly, to firmly and confidently expect life eternal THERE, and with Him.LIBERTY/FREEDOM. The great revolutionary Patrick Henry said:“GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH.”For him, not to live free was worse than death. To live forever under British rule and yoke was intolerable, as bad or even worse than death. No matter the cost, all colonists, all Americans, had to live free no matter what. But there was a higher freedom. Then came the Son, the only one who can really set anyone FREE. No human being could live to the fullest without absolute freedom of:CHOICETHOUGHTACTIONBELIEFThey, all of them, were part of the unalienable rights of the Declaration of IndependenceNo man or woman could live without the Truth. But, with the higher law, the Christ of Glory promised all that HE was the way, and the TRUTH, and the life. He not only brought joy through salvation, here and now, but freedom, here and eternally, from all transgressions and sin. His spirit, the Holy Spirit, came to strengthen, admonish, and encourage us as we lived and walked with Him. Real freedom, the only liberty, which was total and complete, was only found in the:SAVING GRACE OF JESUS CHRIST.HAPPINESS. There was the necessity for full life, there was the necessity for liberty, and there was the necessity for every human being to engage for his or her life in the:PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS.Happiness as that individual defined it. That was the unalienable right of every human being. But then came the higher law, through the Holy Person.Then came the One who brought real joy, real happiness, and showed the way to life abundant here, and with the promise of even more hereafter. This man, our Lord, was so determined to teach us the meaning of happiness and life abundant that He gave His life for that purpose. He admonished us to be cheerful, happy, we were to have fun, and joy, the very best of this life, knowing that the ultimate joy, the higher law, that which was above the natural law, was yet to be fulfilled, but would be so for all eternity. Ultimate joy and happiness would only be accomplished as we live with Him eternally. Some, perhaps many of the Founding Fathers, believed this.We who believe in our Lord Jesus Christ and His higher laws of life, liberty, and happiness can well sing the song HAPPY AM I, JESUS LOVES ME. We can also sing I AM HAPPY IN THE SERVICE OF THE KING because we are in that service and it does provide ultimate fulfillment and happiness.We then should be extremely grateful, thankful, to those revolutionaries, those Founding Fathers, who gave us the great Declaration of Independence and, the Constitution of 1787, our Founding Documents, and the freedoms, the unalienable rights, which they granted to colonists then, and to all of us Americans here and now. Thank you, all 56 of those great men who gave us the Declaration of Independence.We, their heirs and successors, have received and lived the fruits of those blessings and we owe them the highest debt of human gratitude. But there is more, and we have that. There are laws and rights higher than the natural laws of 1776. There is life, there is liberty, and there is happiness and joy, all from HIM and we who believe in Him can partake of the very best here and now, this life, but with far greater expectation of what is to come in the next life.WITH HIM!

Welcome to Episode #176 of Way of the Bible podcast. This is our eighth of eight episodes in our Twenty-Second mini-series entitled, The Return of Jesus Christ. On today's episode we'll be taking a walk on the beach with DrZ to overview our past seven episodes and comment on what we've learned on this first of several mini-series to address this topic.Today's walk is going to be a little different to those in that past, but not completely out of the ordinary. We will not be walking the beach this morning as the heat and anticipated crowds over the Fourth of July weekend opened the opportunity to consider different options.A friend of the podcast has a concierge service that caters to the rich and famous and not so famous yet equally well endowed. One of those clients is a Way of the Bible podcast listener. During the summer, he parks his Gulf Craft Majesty 140' yacht at the San Destin Warf and Marina. He's out of the country with his family for the next few weeks and asked if we'd like to use it for this week's walk. As so here we are…All this to say, in a moment we'll be joining thirty-plus people already gathered in the main deck salon and dining area. Everyone is ready to start and just awaiting our arrival, so here we go.
Can you live forever?This is a question human beings have asked since the dawn of time. From the ancient pharaohs, who buried their wives, families, and treasures with them in the hope of securing eternity, to today's cryogenic freezing of DNA and other strange attempts to discover the fountain of youth—people have tried everything imaginable to outsmart mortality.Look around us: the booming pharmaceutical industry, Botox, plastic surgery—all driven by the desire to slow down, mask, or even reverse the aging process. We spend fortunes trying to look young, to feel young, to hold back the inevitable. But despite all this, has anyone truly figured out how to conquer death, the ultimate end of mortal life?And yet, beneath all these efforts lies a deeper longing. Every one of us yearns to make an impact, to leave a lasting, eternal mark on this universe. We don't just want to exist—we want to matter forever.Is that really possible? Is there a path to a life that transcends time?Please join Rabbi Simon Jacobson for this essential and timely conversation that touches each of us at our core. Together, we'll uncover the spiritual principles that reveal the path to true immortality.
The Good Samaritan is Jesus!
What is mankind's greatest problem? It's not injustice, politics, or depression. It's death. Without a solution to death, nothing truly matters. In this powerful message, we proclaim the eternal hope found in Yeshua—the One who defeated death and gives meaning to life. This 119 Audio Sermon confronts one of the most ignored yet profound truths of our existence: that without God, death makes everything meaningless. Love, justice, truth, and beauty have no foundation in a worldview that ends in nothingness. But Yeshua has solved the greatest problem by conquering death. Through His resurrection, everything gains meaning. Every act of obedience echoes into eternity. This teaching is a bold call to face the reality of judgment and embrace the only solution—repentance, faith, and eternal life in Messiah. Spiritual Takeaway - Without a solution to death, nothing in life truly matters. But Yeshua has conquered the grave—giving meaning to everything that echoes into eternity.
Fr. Mike explains why all of us are called to listen to the prophets of the Old Testament, and why their role is so important in salvation history. Each of us is building some kind of life and picture of eternity: the question we must ask ourselves is are we building it with God or against him? Today's readings are 2 Kings 8, Hosea 8-10, and Psalm 108. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.
