Jesus meant just what he said, life eternal is dependent on knowledge of who is God and who is Jesus Christ. In John 17 :5 Jesus clearly states that God is his father and Peter clearly states that Jesus is the Christ, the son of God, Mat16:16. Anyone who desires life eternal must embrace these truths and not continue to take refuge in ignorance. As Acts 17:30 states, "the times of this ignorance God winked at, but now commandeth all men every where to repent", (Authorised King James Version).
The statements by both the Lord Jesus Christ and Peter are compelling truths which should be taken seriously. In Jesus' case it was in his prayer just before he left his little flock and in Peter's case he was commended by Jesus for saying it. How then can so many honest people be caught in the web of lies which declares that Jesus is God?
I now invite comments.
