God loves me Part III

One of the absolutes to finding the truth is that one must know who God is. The Word of God says in John 17:3, “This is eternal life (life= zoe = God's life), that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you sent.” This verse tells us that if we want to really know what eternal life (zoe = God's life)is all about we must know God and Jesus. John 17:3 provides the definition of eternal life. Eternal life is God's life in us. It is a quality of life that begins the very day, the very second, that one accepts Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. Eternal life continues forever. As a person comes to know (The word “know” in John 17:3 means knowing God and Jesus in the most intimate way.) God and Jesus Christ, an understanding of eternal life will increase and give more meaning and power to our life on earth and our future life in heaven.

God's life, the life of Jesus in us, is free from sin, sickness, poverty, defeat.
