47 Bible Verses About Eternal Life

The Bible made us know that when sin entered the world, it brought death into the world (For the wages of sin is death Romans 6:23). But because God loves mankind and wanted us to be saved, he brought down his son Jesus Christ, to pay the price of our sins. So Jesus died so that we can be saved and have a chance at eternity.

God has given each and every one of us eternal life through his Son, Jesus Christ. So by accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and personal Savior, you will have eternal life.

So because of that, we know that life doesn’t end in death. Just as Christ died and resurrected, we know that even when we die, we’ll be resurrected when Jesus Christ comes.

See below for more bible verses on eternal life. Read and meditate on these verses and let them reassure you of the eternal life that God has given us.
