The *Lord Jesus came
from God. He became a real man. He showed us what real life is. Real life is
life in the spirit. He has that life and he came to give it to us. This is
*eternal life. God gives it to those who believe in his Son.
John was a witness to
this life. The life was with the *Father. Jesus showed that life to us. John
and those who believed in the *Lord Jesus saw this real life. They had received
it. They proved that the message is true.
What they saw was
*eternal life. God gives this life. John knew that he had this life now. And
this life will never end. John wants to share this life with the readers of his
letter. This life is in the *Lord Jesus. Those who know Jesus have this life.
The *Lord Jesus, who is
life, was with God the Father. But he came to us and he showed us this life.
These witnesses have received this life from God. *Eternal life comes from God
the Father.(1 John 1:3)
