SOME SCRIPTURES ON ETERNAL LIFE
Life
Ever Lasting with the Holy Trinity, Father, Son and the Holy Spirit
"Truly , truly, I say to you, unless
one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the Kingdom of God "
(John 3: 5) "After this Jesus and his
disciples went into the land of Judea; there He remained with them and baptized"
(John 3:22)
"He who believes in the Son has eternal life; he
who does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God rests upon
him." (John 3: 36)
"Be sure of this, that no fornicator or impure man, or one who is covetous (that
is, an idolater), has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. Let
no one deceive you with empty words, for it is because of these things that the
wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience. Therefore do not associate
with them, for once you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord; walk
as children of light (for the fruit of light is found in all that is good and
right and true), and try to learn what is pleasing to the Lord"
(Ephesians 5:5-10).
"Do you suppose, then, that you will
escape judgment, you who condemn these things in others yet do them yourselves?
. . . Do you not know that God's kindness [and forbearance] is an invitation to
you to repent? In spite of this, your hard and impenitent heart is storing up
retribution for the day of wrath when the just judgment of God will be revealed,
when he will repay every man for what he has done: eternal life to those who
strive for glory, honor, and immortality by patiently doing right; wrath and
fury to those who selfishly disobey the truth and obey wickedness."
(Romans 2: 3-10)
"And behold, a lawyer stood up to put him to the test, saying, 'Teacher, what
shall I do to inherit eternal life?' He said to him, 'What is written in the
law? How do you read?' And he answered, 'You shall love the Lord your God with
all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all
your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.' And he said to him, 'You have
answered right; do this, and you will live.' "
(Luke 10: 25-28)
"So Jesus said to them, 'Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of
the Son of man and drink his blood, you have no life in you; he who eats my
flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last
day. For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. He who eats my
flesh and drinks my blood abides in me, and I in him. ' "
(John 6: 53-57)
"Although he was a Son, he learned obedience through what he suffered; and being
made perfect he became the source of eternal salvation to all who obey him,
being designated by God a high priest after the order of Melchizedek."
(Hebrews 5: 8-10)
"Do not be deceived; God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that he will
also reap. For he who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption;
but he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life. And let us
not grow weary in well-doing, for in due season we shall reap, if we do not lose
heart. " (Galatians 6: 7-10)
