Good News for the Doubters and the Non-Doubters

I've got some good news for you.

Here is something that Jesus has taught that most all who read His life would agree upon.

Life does not end with death.  There is a possible reunion eventually with those who have died.

Jesus knew the names of His students when He was here and He connected with them personally.  He was not some distant figure known through a television screen or radio, but a personal teacher.  He knew and knows His sheep personally.

We can gradually learn to hold people both tightly and lightly.

Near the time for our movement to heaven to go back home to be with our heavenly Father there are people who get anxious to move there.

The other side is presented to us as a blessing like a wedding banquet or something else that is beautiful and wonderful. "A better place."

If we do our work properly there will be a spirit of forgiveness and grace that turns bad situations into better situations.

If you are a Thomas type who lays down "unless" statements for God it doesn't mean that He won't meet you there.  Unless this and unless that are often a part of our growing process as followers of Jesus.  This is a part of God's love that He will meet you there if it is loving, for He is love.   When He meets us in that "Unless" moment that doesn't mean this is the end of our learning.  We may learn that we don't want to give an All wise God an unless condition for Him to follow.

John 20.
