Were did i find out that Jesus said this to me?
In the New Testament.
In John 6:47
Jesus Speaking.
""Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life"""
Bnr32fan.... notice this carefully....."HATH everlasting life".
"hate", means has or have.
it means to POSSESS IT, currently, and the context is Life as "ETERNAL">
Let me try it again.
Jesus says.>>"He that Believes in me, HAS, eternal Life".
The born again are not waiting for it.
The born again HAVE IT.
Jesus said so.
Believe it.
Notice that you will NEVER EVER see Jesus say that those who believed will have eternal life. It’s those who believeth present tense who will be saved not those who believed. As I already showed you the Greek word pisteuo involves more than simply an acknowledgment of existence it also implies faithfulness, fidelity, and trustworthiness. In order to understand the message that the authors of the scriptures were trying to convey you have to understand the meaning of the Greek words they used when they wrote it because some Greek words cannot be fully translated into English by simply using one word. The English language does not have a single word that fully encompasses the definition of the Greek words pisteuo, pistis, or pistos. Many people will believe who will not receive eternal life because they don’t continue to believe. That’s why I’m every case Jesus always uses the word believe in the present tense when He says they have eternal life.
