The promise

"I most solemnly say to you, whoever listens to me and believes Him who has sent me possesses eternal life, and will never come under condemnation, but has already passed out of death into life.

For it is my Father's will that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him shall have eternal life, and that I shall raise him to life on the last day."

and I give to them eternal life, and they shall never get lost, and no one shall snatch them out of my hand.

Now eternal life means knowing you as the only true God and knowing Jesus your messenger as Christ.

For the wages paid by sin is death, but the gracious gift of God is eternal life through union with Christ Jesus our Lord.

But with Him it is always "Yes," for, as many as the promises of God may be, through Him they are always "Yes." This is why our "Amen" through Him is for the glory of God when spoken by us.

And this is why He is the Mediator of a new covenant, in order that, after He had suffered death for securing redemption from the offenses committed under the first covenant, those who had been invited to share it might obtain the eternal inheritance promised them.

because His divine power has given us everything that is needful for life and piety, through our full knowledge of Him who through His glory and excellence has called us to Him.

And the very thing that He Himself has promised us is eternal life.

And this testimony is that God has given us eternal life, and this life is given through union with His Son.
