The Promise Of Life

The fact that we’re able to wake every morning, breath the air, is a true blessing - but it’s not a guarantee. That we take life for granted is an understatement. We all have seen death, yet we don’t acknowledge the reality of death nor appreciate just how fortunate we are.

Eternal life is equally taken for granted. With physical death looming we should be embracing life eternal. Many simply expect eternal life will be granted because “God is good,” some because they have merited it, and others are simply indifferent to it.

How do you feel about it? This is the question I’d like for us to consider this week. Do we truly appreciate the life God has offered us? In our text for this lesson Paul, in describing eternal life, mentions that before the world began God promised eternal life. This statement leads to a few important questions:
What is the promise of eternal life?
On what criteria does the promise hinge?

The statement itself is not meant to be descriptive of either what eternal life is nor how one goes about obtaining it. Therefore, when reading this statement in context we must answer these questions.
