Anyone....

In John's Gospel, Jesus often meets individuals--He says to the woman at the well (John 4), "If you had known, you would have asked, and [I] would have given YOU living water; He comes to the sick man at the pool of Bethesda, and says, "do YOU want to be well?" (John 5) He talks to the woman who was caught in adultery, and says, "YOUR sins are forgiven..." (John 8), but in John 7:37, He says, "If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink."
Anyone is anyone--without exception.
Anyone is anyone--without limitation.
Anyone is anyone--without restriction.
Anyone. Anyone. Anyone.
That includes YOU, but it does not exclude anyone else.
If anyone can come, then there's room for you.
If anyone can come, then it doesn't matter what your sins are.
If anyone can come, then it doesn't matter how messed up your life is.
If anyone can come, then your politics don't matter.
If anyone can come, then your age doesn't matter.
If anyone can come, then your marital status doesn't matter.
If anyone can come, then your social position doesn't matter (King? Slave? Poor? Rich?)
If anyone can come, then your wealth or poverty doesn't matter.
If anyone can come, then anyone can come!
This is an all-encompassing promise to whoever wants to drink of the water that springs up into eternal life, bringing with it a life in the presence of the Spirit of God, and bringing with it a life in which the Spirit of God lives in you and fills you with satisfaction and overflows to others around you.
When you come and drink, you meet the Father, and the Father meets you, and puts His strong arms around you, and fills you with His presence; when you come and drink, the Father and Son come to be with you forever. When you come and drink, your spirit loses the ability to perish. "You will live, even if you die," and when you come and drink, in reality, "you will never die--" the part of you that matters, the part that makes you, YOU will live with the Father and the Son.
In other words, when you come and drink, you cannot die spiritually. CANNOT. You have passed "from death into life."
At the moment (and especially if you are unfamiliar with the teachings of the Bible), this may sound strange, or fantastic, or even crazy--but what I'm writing today is the absolutely clear teaching of the Christian Bible--
Come! Drink! Fill your life with God!
Come! Drink! Live forever!
