1 | Eternal life promised by God? | Titus 1:2 | dwilliamson | 217654 | ||
Makarios Thanks for that. I think I'm right in saying that John usually refers to "eternal life" in the present. He is speaking of the fact that we have received the same life as the Father - the quality of life! Paul on the other hand refers to "eternal life" in the future because he is thinking of the time when we will enter into all the fulness of that life and enjoy it without restriction. I can't just understand your final statement "This eternal life is in Christ, who was before the world began (John 17:5) and is through Christ alone - this is the promise of eternal life to us before the world began." I'd appreciate it if you would clarify exactly what you mean as it sounds interesting! Are you saying that Christ (in glory, prior to His Incarnation) is Himself the promise of eternal life? In Him David |
