Eternity is Now!

Eternity is Now!

Eternity is now? Yes, eternity is now! We are born in a time constrained life and world so we see everything as past, present or future. When we are born again we are no longer part of the world and it’s time constraint; we are now part of GOD’s eternal Kingdom and time does not exist there. Everything is now! That is why the scripture says that Christ was crucified before the foundation of the earth was laid. That’s why 2000 years after the actual event of Christ’s crucifixion His Blood is still able to wash away the sins of people who believe and repent.

GOD created time for humanities sake not so that He could keep track of everything! We use time as a means of measuring history and our own lives; but GOD is eternal, He is omniscient, He is omnipresent and He is omnipotent. That means that He sees everything and knows everything and that He is all powerful or cannot be defeated. Time does not constrain GOD, GOD keeps time for our mortal sake. GOD is everywhere always and nothing is out of His control. Actually everything that exists, exists in Him, by Him, for Him and to Him.

Jesus said that those who the Father gives to Him were in the world but not of the world.  The world is time constrained, there is only so much time in the natural realm and then it will come to an end according to GOD’s plan and purpose. Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Son of GOD that was crucified to take away the sins of humanity so that we could become the children of GOD, confesses that and does the work of the Father as Jesus did is born again. Born again means that we are no longer of the world but we are now of GOD’s eternal Kingdom, in the earth for now, as it is in Heaven. So we have to learn not to think of time as controlling our lives; time is not a constraint but a measuring devise; time is not revilent to our existence because we are no longer bound by the physical realm.

Jesus said, quoting the Torah that when GOD spoke to Moses at the burning bush that He identified Himself as the GOD of the living: Abraham, Isaac and Jacob had died in the flesh but they were alive in the Spirit; the same happens to us when we are born again. Because of original sin we are born in mortal bodies that will die; but our spirit and soul are eternal, yet condemned to hell. Jesus came and took the punishment of humanity’s sin becoming sin for us even though He never sinned. When we understand the fact of what He did and by faith when we confess that we are a sinner condemned to eternal judgment and repent of our sinful lifestyle and ask the Father to forgive us by the Blood of Jesus; not only does GOD forgive our sins He makes us a new person, an eternal child of His eternal Kingdom by putting His Spirit in us to teach us the ways of His eternal Kingdom. We still live in our mortal body but with the knowledge that at some point we will have an eternal (glorified) body. When we are born again GOD puts His Spirit in us, this is not the baptism of the Holy Spirit; this is the seal of our salvation, the mark of GOD on our now eternal life.
