IMPACTING ETERNITY

The concept of impacting eternity can be understood from a biblical perspective as the idea of making a lasting and meaningful difference that extends beyond our earthly lives and has eternal significance. It involves living by God's will and purpose, using our time, talents, and resources to positively influence the lives of others and advance the kingdom of God.

In the Bible, Jesus taught about the importance of impacting eternity through acts of love, compassion, and discipleship. He emphasized the eternal value of investing in spiritual matters rather than solely focusing on earthly possessions and achievements. In (Matthew 6:19-21), Jesus said, "Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also."

To impact eternity, believers are called to fulfill the Great Commission given by Jesus in (Matthew 28:19-20), which states, "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you." By sharing the Gospel, leading others to faith in Christ, and nurturing their spiritual growth, believers play a vital role in shaping eternity for themselves and others.

Additionally, impacting eternity involves living a life characterized by righteousness, justice, and mercy. The book of (Micah 6:8) says, "He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God." By actively engaging in acts of kindness, standing up for what is right, and extending God's love to others, believers can positively influence the course of history and leave a lasting legacy that honors God and blesses future generations.

Ultimately, impacting eternity is about aligning our lives with God's purposes, seeking to do His will, and trusting in His guidance and grace. By faithfully serving God and others, we can participate in His redemptive plan for humanity and leave a lasting impact that extends far beyond our earthly existence.
