A lot of us have heard through John 3:16 that our belief in the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus for our sins gives us eternal life. If you haven’t, now you know. Eternal life doesn’t mean living forever. John 17:3 defines eternal life.
John 17:2-3 NLT For you have given him authority over everyone. He gives eternal life to each one you have given him. And this is the way to have eternal life—to know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, the one you sent to earth.
God’s word says eternal life is to know God and Jesus. This knowing is not limited to having knowledge of their existence. This knowing means to have intimate fellowship and relationship with them. This knowing means loving them with our whole heart (Matt. 22:37). It’s means putting them and their agenda first (Matt. 6:33). It means trusting them, spending time with them, and following God’s instructions through His Spirit who is inside every born-again believer (Prov. 3:5-6; Gal. 5:16). Eternal life is getting to know God through His word.
Jesus died so that everyone can have eternal life. Take advantage of this wonderful opportunity to know the Almighty God, who is our Father.
John 3:16 NLT “For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.
