John 6:46-47

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

John 6:46-47. Not that any man hath seen the Father save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.

One of the richest passages surely of all holy Scripture. It is all marrow and fatness, but here you seem to have the quintessence. We have eternal life if we are believers not shall have it, but have it now. We have a life which is eternal. It is idle to talk of our losing it, because it would not be eternal if we did. We have a life within us which can by no possibility ever die, but must live on for ever. "He that believeth on me though he hath many tremblings - though he may be the subject of many infirmities, yet he that believeth on me hath everlasting life." O my soul, exult in that glorious truth. Thou hast everlasting life as surely as thou hast faith in Christ.
