The reaper is already getting his wages and harvesting for eternal life, so that the sower shares the reaper's joy.

I have told you this, that my joy may be within you and your joy complete.

He who loves his life loses it, and he who cares not for his life in this world will preserve it for eternal life.

Truly, truly I tell you, he who listens to my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life; he will incur no sentence of judgment, he has already passed from death across to life.

for as the Father has life in himself, so too he has granted the Son to have life in himself,

You search the scriptures, imagining you possess eternal life in their pages ??and they do testify to me ??40 but you refuse to come to me for life.

What gives life is the Spirit: flesh is of no avail at all. The words I have uttered to you are spirit and life.

In him life lay, and this life was the Light for men:

He who believes in the Son has eternal life, but he who disobeys the Son shall not see life ??God's anger broods over him."
