'Life' in the Bible

But here is why I was treated with mercy: so that in me as the worst, Christ Jesus could demonstrate his utmost patience, as an example for those who are going to believe in him for eternal life.

even for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life in all godliness and dignity.

For "physical exercise has some value, but godliness is valuable in every way. It holds promise for the present life and for the life to come."

Compete well for the faith and lay hold of that eternal life you were called for and made your good confession for in the presence of many witnesses.

I charge you before God who gives life to all things and Christ Jesus who made his good confession before Pontius Pilate,

In this way they will save up a treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the future and so lay hold of what is truly life.
