Eternal And Never
JUNE 5, 2026
Daily Reading—2 Kings 16-17 / John 12:23-50
WHAT GOD HAS SAID:
John 10:27-28 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.
WHAT I HAVE SEEN:
Jesus said He is the way of salvation. His love for man was displayed in the same way that we see God the Father displaying His love. When God loves, God gives. (Check out John 3:16.) Jesus said, “And I give unto them eternal life.” What a great promise and gift. Then, to be sure He was clear about what “eternal” meant, He said, “and they shall never perish.”
I am so glad Jesus made it clear as to what happens with His sheep. When we enter the sheepfold of Christ, we are given eternal life, and He said we shall never perish. We will be disciplined at times. However, we cannot run away, and no one can take us away from God. NO One!
WHAT WILL YOU DO:
Don’t Eternal and Never sound like great words when they come from Christ?
