OUTLINE:
Jn 17:3 ASV
And this is life eternal, that they should know thee the only true God, and him whom thou didst send, (even) Jesus Christ.
What/Who Is Eternal Life?
God is not only the source of all life, but the embodiment of it.
1 Jn 5:20
And we know that the Son of God has come, and has given us understanding so that we may know Him who is true; and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life.
Jn 18:9
to fulfill the word which He spoke, “Of those whom You have given Me I lost not one.”
Distractions From Abiding
Your sinful nature even tries to capitalize on your history!
Walking FORWARD By Faith
The Truth has been given us to set us free, let us take advantage of the opportunity, by the grace of God! Jn 8:31-32, Eph 5:16, Heb 6:9-12
Our enemies will use whatever devices they can to deceive us! Don’t EVER be surprised by the angles that our enemies will exploit to gain an advantage! PEOPLE (e.g., the opposite sex) often represent the lion’s share of deception.
Jn 3:20 [Amplified]
For every wrongdoer hates the Light, and does not come to the Light [but shrinks from it] for fear that his [sinful, worthless] activities will be exposed and condemned.
Make NO Provision!
The flesh never wants to totally close the door on sinful options. It wants to at least leave a small opening, “just in case”!! UGH!
Make NO Provision!
“If you love Me, you will keep My commandments.” Jn 14:15
