John 3:16-18
God LOVES the World
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. 17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. 18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.
John 17:3
Now this is Eternal Life

25 Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; 26 and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?”
God and Jesus give us eternal life...So the Christian view of God is different than other religions...Jesus, of course, is that difference...Jesus and God want us to be good...But Jesus tells us that no one is good but God alone...Being nice and good is not what makes us right with God...Jesus makes us right with God...Jesus is the Truth, the Life, and the Way to God...And Jesus is the Only Way to God...Jesus says that no one comes to God, except through Him...By Jesus coming to earth, He came to save us, not to condemn us for sinning and unable to do good...Jesus died on the cross for our sinning and our sinful nature...His death, and God’s sacrifice of His Son was our sin debt paid in full –past, present, and future...We do not have to fear the judgment of God when we believe in God and His Son...By Jesus’ very words, eternal life is knowing the One True God and believing that He sent Jesus to save us...He is the resurrection and the life and the one’s who believe this will have eternal life...
And with God sending His One and Only Son to us, we see the Great Grace of our Father...
