God Quote-Eternal Life
JOHN SHIRK – In the Year of God’s Word this is what the Lord says in John 17:3.
Jesus prayed, “Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.”
Jesus was talking about having a relationship with God. The ambition of the Apostle Paul radically changed after encountering Jesus. As a follower of Jesus, he said, “I want to know Christ-yes, to know the power of his resurrection and participation in his sufferings.”
Our first step into eternal life begins when we say yes to the invitation of Jesus to follow Him. We receive His grace as a gift. We trust Him to forgive us and save us from our sins. He leads us by His grace, truth and words of life found in the Bible. As He leads, we learn to walk with Him daily with a faithful heart that loves Him with all of our being.
John 17:3-that’s today’s God Quote for us to embrace for Life.
