“And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.”
Luke 16:31 KJV
Jesus gave the parable of the rich man and Lazarus the poor beggar, when both died and the rich man was in hell and Lazarus in Abraham’s bosom. Abraham said to the rich man, ‘If they wouldn’t listen to Moses and the prophets, neither would they be convinced if someone were raised from the dead!’ That “Someone” is Jesus, Who rose from the grave, yet many will still not listen and believe. Jesus removed the sin of the whole world and yet many find it hard to believe. A child will believe but the older ones find it difficult. Jesus said, “Mark this: Unless you accept God’s Kingdom in the simplicity of a child, you’ll never get in.” There is only one life, and after that is the judgment. Those who believe and are in Christ, have passed from judgment. Jesus said, “Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever hears My word and believes Him Who sent Me has eternal life. He does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life.” Amen!
