1John; 5:11-12
(And the testimony is this, that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.)
God tell us in many many places in the Scriptures that life is in Jesus and only in Him. We may have a physical life while here on earth, but without Jesus in our hearts we are spiritually dead. When Nicodemus ask Jesus what He meant when He told Nicodemus he must be born again see the kingdom of God, Jesus replied with this answer.
John; 3:5-6
(Jesus answered, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. "That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.)
Jesus made reference to the washing of purification of the soul, accomplished by the Holy Spirit through the Word of God at the moment of salvation, required for belonging to the kingdom.
Titus; 3:5
(He saved us, not on the basis of deeds which we have done in righteousness, but according to His mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit,)
If we want to have eternal life, we must believe in Jesus. Jesus tells us that He is the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Him. If we choose not to believe the testimony that God has given about His Son, then we are calling God a liar. I choose to believe God!
1John; 5:13
(These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God.)
God Bless You!
