Eternal Life
2 Timothy 1-4
“Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, according to the promise of life that is in Christ Jesus…This grace was given us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time, but it has now been revealed through the appearing of our Savior, Christ Jesus, who has destroyed death and has brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.”
2 Timothy 1:1, 9, 10
At the close of Paul’s life, he was celebrating the life that is truly life found in Christ Jesus. This life, which he purposed before the beginning of time, is a gift of God’s grace to us. This life in Christ destroyed death and its power as well as the fear that death brings. Paul lived and shared this Gospel. As the time approached for his martyrdom, his bold declaration of eternal life in Christ rang out to the Church. The sound of this hope-filled Gospel is bringing life in Christ around the world.
