THE SURETY OF ETERNAL LIFE
Joh 6:47 “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me has everlasting life.
The true life of human beings is more spiritual than physical. While the physical life is short and full of earthly challenges, spiritual life continues throughout eternity – It is everlasting life. The Greek word translated” everlasting ” means “perpetual, eternal, forever”. Perhaps the word ” perpetual ” best explains the biblical concept of everlasting life; it is life that, once begun, continues perpetually into eternity ( Got Questions).
Jesus stated plainly that those who believe in him have eternal life. Life eternal, which belongs to God – who is not affected by the limitation of time, is bestowed upon those who believe in his son ( Sharing Bread).
When we come to Jesus, we are credited with righteousness and we are given eternal life. When we believe and obey Jesus, we pass from death to life – this is not a delayed transaction, but something that happens now. 1Jo 5:11 And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. 1Jo 5:12 He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.
