God With Us - Part 3 - For Eternity

·28 min·2 clips

A former atheist describes being run over by a car, dying, and seeing God in a coma.

Pastor Zac Elliott delivers a sermon titled 'God With Us - Part 3 - For Eternity' at Fusion Christian Church in Temecula, California. He opens by recounting a story from a youth camp about a handicapped former atheist who was run over by a car, died, and saw God while in a coma, leading to his conversion. Zac transitions to the Christmas story from Matthew 1, highlighting 'Emmanuel' meaning 'God is with us.' He then delves into John 14, where Jesus washes the disciples' feet, predicts Judas's betrayal and Peter's denial, and addresses their troubled hearts. Jesus responds by saying, 'Do not let your hearts be troubled,' and promises to prepare a place in his Father's house, stating, 'I am the way and the truth and the life.' Zac explains that Jesus calms hearts by focusing on eternity, not earthly problems like jobs or finances. He emphasizes that everyone is living for eternity now and must choose between eternity with or without God. Zac shares another story about a former Satanist with facial implants who wept after a vision of Jesus flooded him with love. He references Hebrews 2, noting Jesus came to break the power of death and free people from fear. Zac describes heaven, listing what won't be there, such as death, pain, sin, and the 91 freeway, and what will be there, like God, angels, and everlasting joy. He stresses that the essential end-times belief is that Jesus is coming back. Zac concludes by urging listeners to accept God's invitation through Jesus, live in his truth, and look forward to setting godly goals for 2025, ending with a prayer.
