“Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him who sent Me, has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life.” John 5:24 (NASB)
In today's selected verse we have words spoken by Jesus to remind us that He came to make it possible for us to have eternal life. When we believe His word, we receive that life even while we continue in our bodies and their temporal state. Jesus reminds us that His teachings, while He was here on earth, are very important in bringing us eternal life and leading us along in faith. We need to remember what Jesus said in our verse about our position today. By faith in Jesus we now have eternal life and we have crossed over from death to life. Let's be sure we live that way today. If we are alive with eternal life we live for today looking forward to living forever because of the promise of Jesus in our verse. Read it again and rejoice that if we have believed in His word, we have also passed out of eternal death into eternal life.
