The Source of Eternal Life

Published 22 August 2022 by John in // Upward

Do you know that eternal life is a gift from God? The Bible teaches, “God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son. Anyone who believes in him will not die but will have eternal life.” John 3:16

God’s gift of eternal life means your spirit person will live forever, but how about life on earth?

Does God care?

Jesus said, “I have come so they may have life. I want them to have it in the fullest possible way.” John 10:10b

God wants you to live an abundant life in the fullest possible way, and he tells you how.

“I am the vine. You are the branches. If you remain joined to me, and I to you, you will bear a lot of fruit. You can’t do anything without me.” John 15:5

You must always be joined to Jesus your vine! He’s the source of productive life on earth, and you must know him intimately.

“And what is eternal life? It is knowing you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.” John 17:3

KNOWING GOD is the connection that keeps eternal life flowing through our veins, just like a branch that stays firmly connected to the vine will LIVE and bear much fruit!

Scripture from NIRV

Dear Father,

Thank you for giving us the wonderful gift of life – eternal life! Thank you Lord that you’ve taught us how to live an abundant, productive life by being connected to Jesus our vine.

Lord, we want to know you more and more, better and better, and we will find you in the Bible. Open our eyes Lord to see the great and wonderful things hidden in the Bible!

Thank you Lord, for eternal and wonderful LIFE!

In Jesus’ Name we pray,

Amen!

Let's connect!
