You May Know That you Have Eternal Life
“These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life.” (1 John 5:13)
A Simple Guarantee You Can Trust
Imagine buying something that comes with a lifetime guarantee—no questions asked. You never worry about it failing, because you have a written guarantee in your hand. In the same way, God gives you a written guarantee regarding your salvation. His Word assures you that eternal life is not something you wish, hope, or guess you have. It is something you may know with confidence.
Our hearts are sprinkled clean!
“Let us draw near with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.” (Heb. 10:22)
Through Christ, your heart has been cleansed, your conscience purified, and your relationship with God fully restored. You don’t approach Him uncertain—you approach Him with full assurance.
He guards what you entrust to Him!
“For this reason I also suffer these things, but I am not ashamed; for I know whom I have believed and I am convinced that He is able to guard what I have entrusted to Him until that day.” (2 Tim. 1:12)
Your salvation does not rest on your grip on God—it rests on His grip on you. And He never lets go.
God has given us eternal life!
“And the testimony is this, that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He who has the Son has the life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have the life. These things I have written to you… so that you may know that you have eternal life.” (1 John 5:11–13)
Eternal life is not found in effort, achievement, or religion—it is found in a Person: Jesus Christ. If you have Him, you have life—now and forever.
The Holy Spirit confirms it!
“The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God.” (Rom. 8:16)
The Holy Spirit continually affirms to your heart: You belong to God. You are His child. You are secure.
Therefore
Walk today with confidence, not uncertainty. God wants you to know, not wonder. Eternal life is His gift, His promise, and His guarantee—and His Spirit confirms it in your heart every day.
