That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. (John 3:15)
Life is a very interesting and intriguing subject about which we must all gain truth and veracity. The concept of/ and about life is so widely misunderstood that some abhors it, others dislike it, great number are tired of it and regrettable some terminate it.
The concept of Life is of God. The Bible calls God the Living God: “And Joshua said, Hereby ye shall know that the living God is among you,..” (Joshua 3:10). The Living God is the author of Life, In Him is Life. Whoever has Life, derives that Life from The Living God. This is a very important truth.
Life is not sold in any market or store, passed on as a family inheritance or manufactured by Fortune xxx Corporation. Life is not Man’s invention, product of research nor warehoused: Life is of God. This important fact (truth) of Life is enough to elucidate Man’s understanding of God’s existence, control and governing dominance over all that pertains to Man, Materials and Matter. God is the life giver, the initiator of all and anything animated. Would God withdraw Life…life terminates.
Consider what the Bible says of God, Man and Life: “The God who created the world and everything in it, since He is Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands; nor is He [e]served by human hands, as though He needed anything, because it is He who gives to all [people] life and breath and all things. 26 And He made from one man every nation of mankind to live on the face of the earth, having determined their appointed times and the boundaries of their lands and territories. This was so that they would seek God, if perhaps they might grasp for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us. For in Him we live and move and exist [that is, in Him we actually have our being], as even some of [f]your own poets have said, ‘For we also are His children.’ So then, being God’s children, we should not think that the Divine Nature (deity) is like gold or silver or stone, an image formed by the art and imagination or skill of man.” (Acts 17:24-29).
This is a profound and exigent notice to all men about the source of our being and the scope of our limitation… we should not think that the Divine Nature (deity) is like gold or silver or stone, an image formed by the art and imagination or skill of man. God gave Man life, it is insidious for anyone therefore to conceive, perceive or deceive that there is no God.
Now about Life, there is varying natures of Life but by the same God. Imagine for instance how the Plant Life is different from Animal Life. Whereas Plants take-in Carbon dioxide to synthesize their energy requirement using the Sunlight, releasing Oxygen to the atmosphere, Animals rather, take-in Oxygen to synthesis their energy requirement with food nutrients and release Carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Though Plant and Animals are living organisms, their respective nature of life is so varied that it requires different resources to actuate and maintain. There is yet varied dimension of Life nature even between Animals; some animals have blood, some do not (snails) implying different materials to actuate.
Eternal Life (Zoe) is God type of Life. This Life type is above all other types. This Life type is so Life absolute in nature that symptoms, sickness and death have no effect on it. Whatever touches this Life type or whatever it touches (instantly) is impacted with Life.
This Life type is the gift of God; His rewards, compensation for believe on Him. “And just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the desert [on a pole], so must [so it is necessary that] the Son of Man be lifted up [on the cross], In order that everyone who believes in Him [who cleaves to Him, trusts Him, and relies on Him] may [c]not perish, but have eternal life and [actually] live forever! “ (John 3:14-15)
