Greetings and welcome to the forum, You question about, John 5:39 Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. It is the same today as it was when Jesus spoke the words. There are more people “assumingly” practicing Christianity now day that are totally oblivious to what true Christianity is all about. i.e. They haven’t really had a real “living experience” with the living Christ! Nicodemus would be a prime example being a Pharisee and knowing the scripture as he did; yet he hadn’t come to the place of the complete dependence on God’s Messiah for eternal life. John 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. The answer to your question is answered in the very next verse. John 5:40 And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life. The majority of so called Christians today don’t fully understand that eternal life is actually a “gift from God” and is “given as a gift” when one puts “all of their trust and desire” for eternal life in the person of God’s Son, Jesus the appointed one. I hope you enjoy the forum, CDBJ |
