Have eternal life in
His name:
13 These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life.
This is our confidence … if we
believe in His name, we know (not hope) that we have this eternal life. Jesus
means Jehovah-saved. It is through God that our salvation comes … not through
our effort, but His. He has done all that is necessary for our salvation. We
just have to believe and receive. Then we can be like those in the verse before
this one in Acts 13:48 … we can rejoice and glorify the Word of the Lord.
If you could hear God speak, I believe this is what He would
say:
"Many
of My children have been taught that they cannot know whether they are going to
Heaven. When I chose you, I did not choose you for a little while. I chose you
for eternity. Do not fear that I will someday reject you. I have chosen you and
will not change My mind. You are Mine forever.”
4. It is through His
name that I have an overflowing, all-encompassing eternal life.
