1 | What is eternal life? | 1 John 5:13 | Bill Mc | 16627 | ||
What do you understand eternal life to be? What are the characteristics of it? When does it start? Can it be lost? If it can be lost, is it still, by definition, eternal life? All responses are welcome. I am interested to see (without argument from my particular point of view) what the forum believes about the eternal life that John says we, as believers, can know that we have. If you read this question, please respond with an answer. It would be interesting to observe what we, as a forum, think about eternal life. |

Eternal life, by definition, is not temporary. "Eternal life, Summary of the teaching: "(1) The life is called "eternal" because it was from the eternity which is past unto the eternity which is to come--it is the life of God revealed in Jesus Christ, who is God John 1:4 ; 5:26 ; 1 John 1:1,2. "(2) This life of God, which was revealed in Christ, is imparted in a new birth by the Holy Spirit, acting upon the word of God, to every believer on the Lord Jesus Christ John 3:3-15 . "(3) The life thus imparted was from the beginning." But the recipient is a "new creation" 2 Corinthians 5:17 ; Galatians 6:15. "(4) The life of God which is in the believer is an unsevered part of the life which eternally was, and eternally is, in Christ Jesus--one life, in Him and in the believer--Vine and branches; Head and members 1 Corinthians 6:17 ; Galatians 2:20 ; Colossians 1:27 ; 3:3,4 ; 1 John 5:11,12 ; John 15:1-5; 1 Corinthians 12:12-14."
