Have You Ever Asked the Question of What Shall I Do to Inherit Eternal Life? Why do we ask this eternal question? Because we feel insecure about not knowing where we will spend eternity. We may have heard about there being a heaven, but we wonder if I will spend eternity there with God? We wonder if I’m a good enough person to inherit eternal life, or if I have done enough good deeds to inherit eternal life. We rationalize that we are not as bad as this person or that person, but deep down in our souls, we are never sure about our eternal destiny. Going deeper we think to ourselves, what do I really need to do to inherit Eternal Life? Brothers & Sisters – If you believe in Jesus dying and rising again for the forgiveness of your sins, you have Eternal Life, which is His Christ’s life inside of you. The wealthy young man asked how to inherit Eternal Life, Jesus told him he lacks one thing which is Him. The wealthy young man needed to believe in Jesus. This conversation was before the crucifixion of Jesus. The wealthy young man needed to come and follow Jesus and believe in Him. Now post cross, we learn from the scriptures he who believes in the Son has Eternal Life. Do You Believe in the Son? Eternal Life is in the present, and in the future. In the present all who believe in the Son have Christ’s life in them. They have Eternal Life in them. They have a new source from which to live from. Christ is in all who believe. If you believe in the Son you enter into an intimate relationship with God and can know Him personally. If you believe you will be with Christ for eternity in the Kingdom of God. John 17:3 (NASB) 3 "This is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent. Brothers & Sisters – Because you have Eternal life by belief in the Son, you can get to know God and His Son Jesus Christ. This is not knowing about Him, but to know by experience intimately as one lives life.
