RAISING BELIEVERS
JOHN 12:44-50
John 12:44–50 (ESV): 44 And Jesus cried out and said, “Whoever believes in me, believes not in me but in him who sent me. 45 And whoever sees me sees him who sent me. 46 I have come into the world as light, so that whoever believes in me may not remain in darkness. 47 If anyone hears my words and does not keep them, I do not judge him; for I did not come to judge the world but to save the world.
48 The one who rejects me and does not receive my words has a judge; the word that I have spoken will judge him on the last day. 49 For I have not spoken on my own authority, but the Father who sent me has himself given me a commandment—what to say and what to speak. 50 And I know that his commandment is eternal life. What I say, therefore, I say as the Father has told me.”

A LIGHT INTO THE WORLD
Verse 46; “I am come a light in into the world……” This is because He is the Light of God to all mankind. Christ provides all understanding, He purifies lives, He enables us to access grace that changes lives for the better. Having access to God’s word as provided in the Holy Bible scriptures helps to dispel spiritual darkness; thereby making it possible for one to see life clearly.

THE SAVIOUR OF THE WORLD
The mission of Jesus Christ has lasted over 2000 years. The son of God came to save the world. This is because humanity is helpless without a Saviour. Check John 3:16.

Today, Christ is our advocate; one day He shall be our judge. Welcome to Jesus Christ for Eternal Safety. He is our refuge.

Hence; He alone qualifies us to be acceptable to God. Check verse 49 from the main text above . Here is where we find the purpose and mission of Jesus Christ. Verse 50 illustrates the fact that everlasting life can be accessible only through His commandment: The Word of God; which is Jesus Christ. He alone is the Divine Origin of Life [ John 1:1-5]
