Karrie knew her grandpa pretty well. She was aware that he had gone to church all his life and that he was a very good man. She was glad that he had lived an admirable, respectable life. Yet she knew that those things couldn't give him eternal life. So one day while she and her 83-year-old grandfather were riding in the car, this high school senior asked, "Grandpa, have you been born again?"

What Karrie didn't know was that her grandfather's former secretary had recently been witnessing to him. This made Karrie's question another reason for him to consider his spiritual condition.

Soon after Karrie's query, her grandfather and her grandmother were listening to a message by Billy Graham on television and prayed to accept Jesus as their Savior. A few weeks later, Karrie's grandfather died and was ushered into eternal fellowship with God.

Has anyone asked you Karrie's question? If not, let me ask you: Have you been born again? All of us are dead in our sins--until we are given spiritual life through faith in Christ.

Jesus is the only way to eternal life with God. Any other avenue you take is a dead end. Take time today to consider Karrie's question.  — Dave Branon
