Rhapsody of Realities 17 July 2025: The True God and Eternal Life

Scripture: (1 John 5:20) And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.

The Lord Jesus Christ is the true God and eternal life.
That, indeed, is who the Messiah was supposed to be. Generations of prophets foretold His coming, and when Jesus came and declared Himself the Christ—God manifested in human form—many rejected Him, accusing Him of blasphemy.
But He was right. Titus 2:13-14 NKJV refers to Him as our great God and Saviour who gave Himself for us: “looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify for Himself His own special people, zealous for good works.” No religious leader matches these credentials but our Lord Jesus Christ.

All the leaders of various religions died and remained dead. Only Jesus Christ resurrected and ascended to heaven alive. It’s only His Name that has power to cast out devils, heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, and raise the dead.

Furthermore, the remission of sins is only possible through Jesus Christ. Acts 13:38-39 NKJV says, “Therefore let it be known to you, brethren, that through this Man is preached to you the forgiveness of sins; and by Him everyone who believes is justified from all things from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses.” 1 John 5:11-12 NKJV says, “And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.”

Jesus is the only one to give His life for all humanity; He gave His divine life so you could have eternal life. Now, because you’ve received Him, your natural human life has been supplanted by the God-life; you’re now born of God: “But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God” (John 1:12-13). He gave us eternal life because He’s Himself eternal life. Jesus is the true God and eternal life. Hallelujah!
