When Jesus Talks About Eternal Life

When Jesus talks about eternal life, he’s not just talking about an existence that goes on forever—that’s part of it—but the eternal life that He’s referring to also has to do with the quality of this existence.  It is life that goes on forever in the presence of God.  He’s talking about life forever in a very good way.  He’s talking about an existence that never comes to an end and it’s filled entirely with joy and love—in fact, the experience of sorrow and tears and negative feelings will not happen during this eternal life that Jesus speaks of.  It will be entirely good, sinless, meaningful, exciting and happy.
