Eternal Life

1 Peter 1:24-25

For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away: But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.

John 3:15
That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

John 10:28
And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.

1 John 2:25
And this is the promise that he hath promised us, even eternal life.

Flowers shoot up, display their glory, and fade away. But not God's word or His people. Through Jesus, God promises us eternal life.

The word eternal means (From http://www.blueletterbible.org)

1) without beginning and end, that which always has been and always will be

2) without beginning

3) without end, never to cease, everlasting

Amazing to realize that God is eternal, but in Him so are we.

Ephesians 1:4-5 ⁴According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: ⁵Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,

Embrace the Lord and the truth of His Word. Consider that you are eternal in Christ. And live this life here on earth with eternity in mind.
