29. Please write out any questions or comments you have about this study.

Thank  you  for  completing  this  first  study.  We  hope  it  was  informative and helpful to you. It has introduced the subject of eternal  life  by  focusing  on  the  great  issue  that separates man  from a holy God: SIN! Sin (in all its forms and faces) divides, detracts and destroys — both in this life and the next. Revelation 20:14‐15  speaks of a  second death  that  separates us  from God  for all of eternity:


“And  death  and  hell  were  cast  into  the  lake  of  fire.  This  is  the  second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.”


However,  there is  good  news.  Great  news, in  fact!  The  second  study will introduce you to the SAVIOUR, the Lord Jesus Christ. Before you begin this study, read John chapters 1–3 and Romans chapters 1–3.
