"but whoever drinks of the water that I shall
give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become
in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life."
Water Of Life- What is it?
John
4:14
You may have received one of our bottles of spring
water, which we enjoy giving away as a sort of calling card, and also as a
means to start a conversation about the water of life, which comes from
Jesus. We are happy to give this earthly water away, and we are hopeful
that you will want to know more about “living water” which only Jesus can
give you. As you see from the words of Jesus above we are talking about
eternal life. Even though eternal life might seem far away Jesus says it
will have an immediate effect in this life, and He also says that it will
flow beyond our own lives. "He
who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow
rivers of living water." But this He spoke
concerning the Spirit, whom those believing in Him would receive; for the
Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified John
7:38,39 This
is what God has always promised, to give us eternal life, by pouring out
His Holy Spirit, but He could not do that until Jesus had fulfilled His
mission on Earth and returned to Glory. He came from Heaven to Earth to
pour out His earthly life, and once He had done so, and had risen from the
dead, He returned to Heaven to pour out His heavenly life. We are humans
who are now living a heavenly life while we wait for Jesus to come, one
more time, to take us to Glory. Our sins were washed away when we believed
in Jesus and were baptized in His name. His Spirit now lives in us, so we
can say to you, “Have a drink on us”
