Everlasting and Eternal


God

Romans 1:20 

For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.

Romans 16:26  

But now revealed and made known through the prophetic writings by the command of the eternal God, so that all nations might believe and obey him

The Holy Spirit

Hebrews 9:14

How much more, then, will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from acts that lead to death, so that we may serve the living God!

Life

Matthew 19:16  

Now a man came up to Jesus and asked, “Teacher, what good thing must I do to get eternal life?”

Matthew 19:29  

And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or fields for my sake will receive a hundred times as much and will inherit eternal life.

Matthew 25:46  

“Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.”

John 3:16  

“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

John 3:36  

Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God's wrath remains on him.”

Romans 6:22  

But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves to God, the benefit you reap leads to holiness, and the result is eternal life.

How Can We

 “How can we who died to sin still live in it?”  Romans 6:2 RSV

How can we who have been made right not live righteous lives? How can we who have been loved not love? How can we who have been blessed not bless? How can we who have been given grace not live graciously? . . .

How could grace result in anything but gracious living? “So do you think we should continue sinning so that God will give us even more grace? No!” (Romans 6:1 NCV) - Max Lucado
