Knowing the true God will give us eternal life


Knowing the true God will give us eternal life

John 17: 2, 3

After Jesus said this, he looked toward heaven and prayed:
“Father, the hour has come. Glorify your Son, that your Son may glorify you. For you granted him authority over all people that he might give eternal life to all those you have given him. Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.

Gal 6:8

Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.

I john 1:2

The life appeared; we have seen it and testify to it, and we proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and has appeared to us.


1 john 5:11, 13, 20

11 And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12 Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.

13 I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life. 

20 We know also that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true. And we are in him who is true by being in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.

We learn the following from the above verses

1)   Knowing the true God will give us eternal life
2)   Jesus has authority to give eternal life
3)   Whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life
4)   God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.
5)   Who believes in the name of the Son of God has eternal life.
