Eternal Life

Summary

The sermon on eternal life emphasizes it as a confident hope and an ironclad promise from God, given before the world began through the covenant of grace. Eternal life is described not only as everlasting existence but as an intimate, growing knowledge of Jesus Christ, which motivates believers to endure suffering and live faithfully. The preacher encourages believers to lay hold of eternal life by meditating on it, living righteously, and growing in their relationship with Christ. The gift of eternal life is freely given by God, and believers are called to fight the good fight of faith while looking beyond earthly trials to the eternal glory ahead.
