John 20:31 CSB
Dr. Warren Wiersbe (Be Transformed, p. 140)
“John was not writing a biography to entertain or a history to enlighten. He was writing to offer men eternal life. He used the word ‘life’ thirty-six times. Eternal life is not ‘endless time’ for even sinners are going to live forever in hell. Eternal life means ‘the very life of God experienced today.’ It is a quality of life, not a quantity of life. It is the spiritual experience of ‘heaven on earth today.’ The Christian doesn’t have to die to have this eternal life; he possesses it in Christ today.”
ETERNAL LIFE
"This is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and the one you have sent—Jesus Christ." John 17:3 CSB
