SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life (John 3:16).
In our previous study, we began discussing three important things we got from Jesus, and we reviewed righteousness as number one. In today’s study, I’ll explain the second one which is eternal life. Until Jesus Christ died and resurrected, it wasn’t possible for anyone to have eternal life. But what is eternal life? It’s the organic and existential attributes of deity.
Eternal life is the very essence of divinity, the divine life of Deity. That divine life is what Jesus made possible for us. This is what every religion in the world yearns to have. Everyone in the world, whether they believe in God or not, somehow or another, all want this divine nature. They’re looking for that life, but they don’t know how to get it or what it’s all about. They have the intuition within themselves that the human person was created to be much more. The human being isn’t supposed to merely exist, die like an ordinary animal and be forgotten forever. They believe there’s something about the human person that lives forever, and they’re looking for that “thing.”
Yes, they are right, but the only way to get it is to know Jesus and receive Him into your heart. He is the true God and eternal life: “And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent” (John 17:3). 1 John 5:20, “…and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.”
Then in John 10:27-28, He said something most remarkable, “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish….” Ponder again what we just read! You have to have or be something to be able to give it. Jesus Christ gives eternal life because He is eternal life and He imparted that life to you when you were born again. Blessed be God!
Now that you’re born again, you’ve passed from death to life (John 5:24). 1 John 5:11-12 says, “And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.”
Notice the tenses; it’s in the past: God’s testimony, His witness is that He has given to us eternal life, and this life is in His Son, Jesus. Anyone who has Jesus has life. Anyone who hasn’t received Jesus doesn’t have that life. Only Jesus gives eternal life. Hallelujah!
PRAYER/CONFESSION
Dear Father, I thank you for the gift of eternal life, the very life and nature of God that’s in my spirit. I live above sickness, disease, defeat and death, because your divine life is at work in me. I walk in victory and glory every day, knowing that I’ve been made a partaker of your divine nature, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
