Today is Tuesday, March 23rd, 2021; Karen's Korner #4412

Fun note back from my Uncle Bud (aka Paul) on yesterday's Karen's Korner (Jesus attending a wedding):  He is a retired Baptist minister living in Tennessee: 

"I preached John 2:1 thru 12 at the site where they think Jesus turned water to wine.  March of 1985.  Love, Uncle Bud Merwin"

A paragraph from the book "New Life in Christ, What really Happens When You're Born Again And Why It Matters" by Steven J. Lawson:

"This 'life of the ages' is experienced now, while living in this present world. This heaven-like life begins in the present for those who are born again. Long before believers go to heaven, God has already come to live inside of them. Salvation is not merely in the future. Eternal life begins the moment we are born again and believe in Jesus Christ. The Lord will later say, 'Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him who sent Me, has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life' (John 5:24). The present tense -- HAS eternal life --stresses that this divinely given life begins the moment we believe in Jesus Christ."
