Eternal Life Is the Life and Nature of God
John 1:4 & John 5:26: God is a Spirit. Inside of Him there is life. It is spiritual life, eternal life. Jesus had that same kind of life in Him. I am a spirit. I have received that same kind of life in me. My spirit has been born of God and now has the life of God in it. I have the same kind of life in me that exists in the eternal, self– existent \”I AM\”.
Ephesians 4:17, 18 & II Peter 1:4: Eternal life is the life of God; it is the divine nature. I have the life, the nature of God in me. I am a partaker of the divine nature. I have escaped the spiritual that is in the world through sin. I have God\’s own life in me. I have come to share in His very being because I have His life in me.
