John 20: 31 “but these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.”
What is the motive for telling others about Jesus? What do we tell them is the main benefit for becoming a believer? Do we sometimes get caught up on “fire insurance”? We focus so on much effort on avoiding hell that we miss the real value.
The real value is to have life in His name.
In other words, how many people would commit their lives to Jesus if heaven was not promised but only the relationship they could enjoy with Him in this life? I fear the number would be a lot less.
Jesus promises eternal life. That is life of quality not quantity. It is life that has value, richness and meaning.
