What does John 5:25 mean? →

Passage Context

23That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him.
24Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.
25Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.
26For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself;
27And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man.

Devotional Reflection

LoveJoyPeaceGratitudeHope

Aren't you glad that even death can't keep us from hearing Jesus say, "Rise!" as He promised He would? We will always hear His voice and have Him with us. That sure makes me feel better about my plans for the future. How about you?

Prayer

Thank you, All-Powerful God, that the resurrection of Jesus showed that You have the power to conquer death. I believe that Your Son will come back, bring me back to life if I die before He does, and bring me home to be with You. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.
