Safe in Jesus

“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.” (I John 5: 20)

When Peter made his confession concerning Christ at Caesarea Philippi God had given him the revelation, “Thou art the Christ, the Son of the Living God.” Peter knew that the Son of God had come into their midst. The Holy Spirit further inspires John to write, “We are in Him that is true even in God’s Son, Jesus Christ.”

John concludes this verse by saying, “This is the true God, and eternal life.” Hear what Peter said when Jesus asked the twelve, “Will ye also go away?”  Peter responded, “Lord, to whom shall we go? Thou hast the words of eternal life. And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God.” (John 6:67-69)

Who is Jesus too you? Have you trusted Him for eternal life? If not, why not? Do it now.
