      7. Surveying three vital truths.

      1. Life with God is His gift - not earned. (27-29, 33, 35-36; see also John 3:16, 4:10; Romans 3:20; 6:23; Ephesians 2:8-9; 2 Timothy 1:9)
      2. Life with God is in Jesus by personal faith in Him - not in anyone or anything else. (29, 32-33, 35-37; 14:6; Acts 4:12; Romans 10:13)
      3. Life with God is eternal life - not hypothetically eternal, not temporary, not probationary or conditional. (27, 37-40; see also 3:16; 4:13-14; 5:24; 10:10, 25-30; 11:25-26; Romans 8:28-39)
