The Life of God

1 John 5:13
“These things I have written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God – that you may know you have eternal life, and you may believe on the name of the Son of God.”

“We must get rid of this idea that the New Testament is but a book that contains an exulted teaching that we are meant to practice and put into action. It is not an exhortation for us to rise to the level of some wonderful teaching. It is an announcement. It is a proclamation. It calls itself ‘the Good News!’ it is something concrete: a person has appeared in this world who is, in and of Himself, the bearer of this eternal life that God is giving to mankind.”
