Bible Question: Some piece of scripture states " Life is knowing God and His Son Jesus Christ" I found it weeks ago but cant find it know |
Bible Answer: Hi jbaker53, The passage you are thinking of was when the Lord Jesus spoke to His Father and gave us a discription of Eternal life. "This is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent." The word for know (ginosko) here is used often of experimental knowledge, in other words you could rephrase this "This is life eternal - the getting to know You the Only True God and Jesus Christ Whom You sent" Eternal life is not just non-ending. It is the life of God in the soul of man. How wonderful! I - small, insignificant, unimportant - can really get to know the Transcendant God and His Son personally! Hope this helps! Andrew |
