Men have mystified and philosophized the Gospel of Jesus but it is as simple as it can be. The secret of Christianity is in being. It is in being a possessor of the nature of Jesus Christ. –John G. Lake

Thanks. Me too. I have a book of things he said. Before I read his book (well, I'm reading it. Not finished with it yet. ) I always saw him as the genius who had the wacked out hair and stuck his tongue out in pictures. I had no idea how insightful he was. Amazing guy.

If you have eternal life at all, it simply means that you have the Son, Jesus Christ * NOW! Eternal life is not a peculiar feeling inside! It is not your ultimate destination, to which you will go when you are dead. If you are born again, eternal life is that quality of life that you possess right now, at this very moment, in your own physical body, with your own two feet on the ground, and in the world TODAY! And where does this life come from? Of Him! He is that life! So if you have eternal life, it means that you have Somebody, Jesus Christ, and the life that you possess is of Him.--W. Ian Thomas
