    Jesus Came to Light Up Your Life

    “I have come in order that you might have life—life in all its fullness.”

    John 10:10 (GNT)

    Most people never learn how to really live. They’re just existing.

    Jesus said in John 10:10, “I have come in order that you might have life—life in all its
    fullness” (GNT). He came at Christmas to give us three kinds of life that take care of our
    past, our present, and our future.

    First, Jesus came to give new life. That means everything we’ve ever done
    wrong is completely forgiven and forgotten. He wipes the slate clean!

    When someone says they’re “born again,” that just means Jesus gave them a fresh
    start in life. If you step across the line and accept God’s grace and ask him to forgive
    you, then you don’t need to feel guilty about your past. You get new life.

    Second, Jesus came to give abundant life. You were made for more than
    survival, success, or earthly significance. You were made for a life of purpose. Jesus
    calls it abundant life—a life where your values and your meaning and your significance
    all come together. That’s the life that God meant for you to live.

    Third, Jesus came to give eternal life. God will take care of your past, your
    present, and your future. That’s his Christmas gift to you in Jesus Christ.

    I once asked Peter Drucker, the famous management consultant, when he decided to
    become a believer. He said, “When I discovered what grace was really all about, when I
    fully understood it, I realized I was never going to get a better deal, and I opened my life
    to Christ.”

    At the first Christmas, the Wise Men saw a bright star shining in the sky and followed it
    to find the baby Jesus. But the Wise Men weren’t the only people who saw it. Everybody
    would have seen the star—but nobody else did anything about it. The Wise Men were
    wise because they knew that following the star would lead to the greatest gift.

    How wise are you? It’s one thing to know Jesus is the Light of the World. It’s another
    thing to let him light up your life.

    Just like you cannot live without the light of the sun, you cannot live without spiritual
    light. Open up to the light of Christ, and you’ll find new, abundant, and eternal life.

    1. New life
    2 Peter 1:3-5: Jesus has the power of God and his
    power has given us everything we need to live a
    life devoted to God.

     Ephesians 2:4-6: God loves us deeply and he


    gave us new life because of what Christ has
    done. He raised us up with Christ and seated us
    with him in his heavenly kingdom.

     Psalm 36:9: You are the giver of life. Your light


    lets us enjoy life.

    John 5:26: For as the Father has life in himself,


    so he has granted the Son also to have life in
    himself.
    2. Abundant life
    Abundant life is a term that comes from John 10:10,
    where Jesus says, "I came that they may have life,
    and have it abundantly"123. This means that Jesus
    offers us a life that is full of joy, peace, and purpose, and
    that overflows with His blessings14. Abundant life is not
    based on material possessions, but on seeking God's
    kingdom and His righteousness first34. Abundant life is a
    gift from God that we can receive by faith in Jesus

    3. Eternal life
    The Bible contains several verses that talk about the
    promise of eternal life. Here are some of them.
     1 John 2:25: "And this is the promise that He Himself
    made to us: eternal life."
     John 10:28: "I give them eternal life, and they shall
    never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand."
     Ephesians 2:8-9: "For it is by grace you have been
    saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it
    is the gift of God — not by works so that no one can
    boast."
     Galatians 2:16: "know that a person is not justified by
    the works of the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ. So we,
    too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be
    justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the
    law, because by the works of the law no one will be
    justified."
