We’ve come to our final sermon in our series on the Apostle’s Creed. The title of this sermon is: “I Believe in Life Everlasting, Amen!” Eternal life is more than an endless existence: there will be endless existence in hell, and the Book of Revelation calls that everlasting death. Eternal life is entering into the joy of Jesus, i.e., being with Jesus is the essence of heaven, it is what our eternal life is all about. In Psalm 16:11, David wrote: “ You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.” That’s what heaven will be for eternity! Please review the attached study guide, reflect on its message, and share it with those with whom you would like to spend eternity. In addition, we invite you to take this opportunity to engage more deeply with your faith. Pastor Wayne and the whole Heritage Family!

The Apostle’s Creed begins with our faith in God the Father and ends with our hope of everlasting life. In between are 12 essential doctrines of the Christian faith that one must believe to turn that hope into reality.

According to Jewish historians, Nicodemus, a Pharisee and one of Israel’s greatest teachers, respected Jesus. In John 3:2, Nicodemus told Jesus, “Rabbi, we know that You are a teacher come from God; for no one can do these signs that You do unless God is with him.”
