Life

1 John 5:12 - He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.

John 3:14-16, 36 - Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the desert, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, that everyone who believes in him may have eternal life. "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life…Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God's wrath remains on him."

Conclusions:

• Eternal life is an infinitely high quality of life in living fellowship with God—both now and forever
• God so loved the world is the great truth that motivated God’s plan of salvation
• The world is all people on earth—or perhaps all creation
• Although believers are also called sons of God, Jesus is God’s Son in a unique sense
• Eternal life is a present possession, not something the believer will only obtain later
• God’s wrath is a strong expression, meaning that God is actively opposed to everything evil
• A sinner cannot expect God’s wrath to eventually fade away
• God’s opposition to evil is both total and permanent

Application:

• Do you believe in Him?
• Are you called a son of God?
• Do you see eternal life as a present possession?
