Key Text: 1 John 5:13
1. John 5:13. The Bible
says that we can know that we have eternal
life. If we believe-and continue to believe
in Jesus name-He has promised that we have
eternal life.

being good save us? No. We are saved by
God’s grace (unmerited, undeserved
favor) as a gift-not by our works.
3. Romans 3:10,23. No
one is righteous in himself or herself.

spite of our sinfulness, God loves us and
wants to give us eternal life. In fact,
Christ died for us while we were still
sinners.
5. John 3:16. For God
so loved us so much He gave His only Son
Jesus so that everyone who believes on Him
should not die, but have everlasting life.

became sin for us so that we might become
righteous in Him.

all human beings.

through faith.
