And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. - 1 John 5:11
This is the record.
This is the sum and substance of all that is written and preached. God, out of his pure, free grace, is pleased to give unto us eternal life. This life is the spiritual life lost in the fall, life forever free from sin, sorrow, and death. This life is in his Son, the Lord Jesus Christ! This life is not only purposed in him, promised through him, and purchased by him, but he is that life! (Col. 3:4). He that has the redeeming Christ, the interceding Christ, the indwelling Christ has life!
