CHRIST, THE RADICAL

Christ Jesus is the most Radical person to ever live.

He said to every living person on Earth, REPENT! (Matthew 4:17)

You must go in the Opposite Direction

From the one you are currently on.

He came from Heaven, the Eternal Reality,

To tell people that they must Conform themselves to Heaven

And Not to that which they see on Earth--

That which they see on Earth is Dead,

As good as in the Grave. (Luke 9:60)

Christ Jesus said this:

I tell you the Truth,

Whoever hears My Word and Believes Him Who sent Me

HAS ETERNAL LIFE

AND WILL NOT BE CONDEMNED;

HE HAS CROSSED OVER FROM DEATH TO LIFE.

I tell you the Truth,

A time is coming and has now come

When the Dead will hear the Voice of the Son of God

AND THOSE WHO HEAR WILL LIVE.

FOR THE FATHER HAS LIFE IN HIMSELF,

SO HE HAS GRANTED THE SON TO HAVE LIFE IN HIMSELF.

And He has given Him Authority to Judge

BECAUSE HE IS THE SON OF MAN.

Do not be Amazed at this,

For a time is coming when ALL

Who are in their Graves will hear His Voice

AND COME OUT--

Those who have done Evil

WILL RISE TO BE CONDEMNED.

By Myself I can do Nothing;

I Judge only as I hear,

And My Judgment is Just,

FOR I SEEK NOT TO PLEASE MYSELF

BUT HIM WHO SENT ME.

If I Testify about Myself,

My Testimony is Not Valid.

There is Another Who testifies in My Favor,

And I know that His Testimony about Me is Valid.

You have sent to John (the Baptist)

And he has Testified to the TRUTH.

Not that I accept human Testimony;

BUT I MENTION IT THAT YOU MAY BE SAVED.

John was a Lamp that burned and gave Light,

And you chose for a time to Enjoy his Light.

I have a Testimony Weightier

Than that of John.

For the very Work that the Father has given me to Finish,

And which I am doing,

TESTIFIES THAT THE FATHER HAS SENT ME.

And the Father Who sent Me

HAS TESTIFIED CONCERNING ME.

You have Never heard His Voice nor seen His Form,

NOR DOES HIS WORD DWELL IN YOU,

FOR YOU DO NOT BELIEVE THE ONE HE SENT.

YOU DILIGENTLY STUDY THE SCRIPTURES

BECAUSE YOU THINK THAT BY THEM

YOU POSSESS ETERNAL LIFE.

These are the Scriptures that Testify about Me,

YET YOU REFUSE TO COME TO ME TO HAVE LIFE.

I do not accept Praise from men,

But I know you.

I KNOW THAT YOU DO NOT HAVE THE LOVE OF GOD

IN YOUR HEARTS.

I have come in My Father's Name,

AND YOU DO NOT ACCEPT ME;

But if someone else come sin his own name,

You will accept him.

HOW CAN YOU BELIEVE

IF YOU ACCEPT PRAISE FROM ONE ANOTHER,

YET MAKE NO EFFORT TO OBTAIN THE PRAISE

THAT COMES FROM THE ONLY GOD?

But do not think I will Accuse you before the Father.

YOUR ACCUSER IS MOSES,

ON WHOM YOUR HOPES ARE SET.

IF YOU BELIEVED MOSES, YOU WOULD BELIEVE ME,

For he wrote about Me.

BUT SINCE YOU DO NOT BELIEVE WHAT HE WROTE,

HOW ARE YOU GOING TO BELIEVE WHAT I SAY?

(John 5:24-47)
