1 John 5:13 Believe on the Name of the Son of God

Posted on Posted in Devotions Tagged with , ,

1 John 5:13 (KJV) These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.

Faith in Jesus Christ, the Son of God who is God incarnate, is a truth that assures believers the way to eternal life – 1 John 5:12 (KJV) He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.

The Scriptures points the way to the truth that by coming to Jesus Christ, our sin burden can be removed and replaced by God’s peace and joy – Matthew 11:28-30 (KJV) Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

Thank God for the record of Scripture – 1 John 5:11 (KJV) And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. Amen.
