God Has Given Us Eternal Life In The Son

9 If we take the witness of men to be true, the witness of God is greater: because this is the witness which God has given about his Son. 10 He who has faith in the Son of God has the witness in himself: he who has not faith in God makes him false, because he has not faith in the witness which God has given about his Son. 11 And his witness is this, that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.
