6) JESUS saith unto him, I
Am the way, the truth, and
the life no man cometh
unto the FATHER but by Me
JESUS SAID UNTO HIM I
AM THE WAY THE TRUTH
AND LIFE
The only way to GOD and
the real truth and the real
life, JESUS said I Am the only
way to GOD, by this it is
meant, doubtless, that they
and all others were to have
access to GOD only by
obeying the doctrine,
imitating the example, and
depending on the LORD
JESUS CHRIST, CHRIST is our
way to heaven by the
doctrine which He taught;
CHRIST shows the person
the way, He himself is the
way, by His death, by which
He purchased this heavenly
inheritance for us; by His
perfect and sinless life,
setting for us an example
that we should follow His
steps; by the influence of his
Spirit guiding us to, and
assisting us in, He declares
that the approach to GOD
for every man, is through
Him CHRIST is the way of
salvation itself by His
obedience and sacrifice; nor
is there any other, He is the
way to His FATHER
appointing, and which is
entirely agreeable to the
perfection of GOD, and
suitable to the case and 3
condition of sinners: He is
the blessing to all the
blessings of the covenant of
grace; no one come to the
presence of GOD, except of
CHRIST but by faith in Him
and He is the way to
heaven, the only way to
GOD ,
THE TRUTH: JESUS is the
communicator of the truth,
He himself is the
embodiment of truth, He is
the picture of truth, He is
the truth as to His doctrine,
He originates and
communicate Truth for the
salvation of men, truth is
representation of things as
they are, the teaching of
CHRIST is complete and
perfect representation of
the things of the eternal
world, that can be
presented to man, the truth
of the Gospel being the
word of truth, which
signifies reality and
accomplishment , He
reveals the ultimate source
and meaning and end of
things, He reveals the truth
of man himself and of the
world surrounding man, He
shows man the right way of
the truth and enable man to
choose the right way of the
Truth
AND THE LIFE:
CHRIST is the author and
giver of life, natural,
Spiritual and eternal; He is
the living way of life, He is
the way that leads to
eternal life, CHRIST is the
true way to eternal life
   
NO MAN COMETH UNTO
THE FATHER BUT ME
No man come to the
FATHER to obtain His favor,
to have access to His throne
by prayer, and finally to
enter His kingdom, no man
can obtain any of those
things expect by the LORD
JESUS CHRIST, we must
approach GOD through
CHRIST, as we are sinful,
and by the LORD JESUS
CHRIST that we can be
pardoned, CHRIST is the
only way of access unto the
father, there is none coming
to GOD, with out going
through the redemptive
work of CHRIST, CHRIST is
only the Mediator between
GOD and man, He is the
only way to heaven , only
by we receiving, embracing
believing in CHRIST
JOHN 14:7
7)If ye had known Me, ye
should have known My
FATHER also; and from
henceforth ye know Him,
and have seen him
IF YOU HAD KNOWN ME
If you had known Me, as
you ought to have known
me , as I Am indeed the
eternal SON of GOD, sent by
My FATHER into the world,
you should have known My
FATHER, with whom I Am
equal, and one and the
same GOD , you might and
ought to have known Me,
the savior of the world and
true Messiah if you
earnestly sought and
obtained that Knowledge of
Me which is communicated
by the Holy Spirit of wisdom
and revelation, you would
have known the counsels
and designs of My FATHER ,
YOU SHOULD HAVE
KNOWN MY FATHER5
For the knowledge of
CHRIST and the FATHER, go
together, he that sees the
one, sees the other; He that
believes in one believes in
the other and the
knowledge of both is
necessary to eternal life the
only way to GOD in now
revealed, CHRIST Himself is
the perfect revelation of
GOD, if a man whishes to
see exactly who GOD is and
what He is like, he must look
at CHRIST,,
AND FROM HENCEFORTH
YOU HAVE SEEN HIM
From henceforth you have
seen Him and shall know
Him; in a very short time,
from My death and
resurrection you shall
understand the plans and
counsels of GOD ,when the
Spirit is poured down from
high upon you, and you
have received the gift of
the Holy Spirit, you shall
then have an enlarged
knowledge both of Me and
My FATHER, believing that
you see the FATHER in Me,
and in all My works,
because you have seen Him
in Me who I Am the
brightness of glory, and the
express image of whose
person, I Am and if you
believe what I say, from
henceforth you do know the
FATHER; and you have seen
the FATHER so often as you

Have I been so long time
with you, and yet hast thou
not known Me, Phillip? He
that hath seen Me hath
seen the FATHER; and how
sayest thou then, show us
the FATHER?
10)Believest thou not that I
Am in the FATHER, and the
FATHER in Me? The word
that I speak unto you I
speak not of myself; but the
FATHER that dwelleth in
Me, He doeth the works
11)Believe Me that I Am in
the FATHER, and the
FATHER in Me; or else
believe Me for the very
works sake
PHILIP SAID UNTO HIM
LORD SHOW US THE
FATHER 
Show us the FATHER Philip
here speaks in the name of
all the disciples seems to
own their ignorance of the
FATHER referred to some
outward and visible
manifestation of GOD, a
sight of the glory of GOD a
dazzling spectacular sight, a
visible sight of GOD, a
tangible GOD as Moses
desired, and the elders of
Israel had at Mount Sinai;
GOD had manifested
himself in various ways to
the prophets and Saints of
old,
JACOB,- GENESIS 28:12,
MOSES- EXODUS
3:1;24:9-11
ELIJAH- 1 KINGS 19:11-
17
JOSHUA -JOSH-5:13-15
and Philip affirmed that if
some such manifestation
should be made to them
they would be satisfied, it
would give them full
satisfaction, so that they
may not desire to ask
further questioned and may
no more be troubled in
mind, especially now that
you about returning back to
the FATHER and the
disciples will not go with
Him now we are sure that
thou knowns all things, and
there is no need that any
man should ask you; by your
response we believe that
you comes forth from GOD,
as we are convinced of the
Messianic character of
JESUS, it is happiness
enough for us.7
Philip was not satisfied with
what he saw in JESUS nor,
with what he had received
in JESUS, walking by faith
was not enough, he wanted
to see something
outstanding and a
spectacular person who
appeared in dazzling form,
JESUS the SON of GOD
appeared before Philip as a
mere man in bodily form,
JESUS was not appearing as
the dazzling, spectacular
and glorious being of a
heavenly person, he wanted
more than JESUS was
JESUS SAID HAVE I BEEN SO
LONG TIME WITH YOU AND
YOU DON’T KNOW ME
So long time, For more than
three years JESUS had been
with them, He had raised
the dead, cast out devils,
healed the sick, done those
things which no one could
have done who had not
come GOD, in that time
they had full opportunity to
learn his character and His
mission from GOD
HE THAT HATH SEEN ME
HATH SEEN THE FATHER
He that has seen my works,
heard My doctrine, and
understood my character,
who that has paid proper
attention to the proofs that
I have afforded that I came
from GOD, JESUS was the
full embodiment of GOD,
any one who has seen JESUS
has seen the FATHER, when
a man sees JESUS CHRIST,
he sees a Person, who is the
very nature of GOD, who is
the very character of GOD
   
who is the very substance of
GOD, who is the perfection
of GOD, who is GOD in all of
His perfect being, that
person who has seen JESUS
CHRIST has seen the
FATHER in all the fulness of
the FATHER’S nature they
sees the perfect
embodiment of love and
perfect righteousness ,
giving and helpful, full of
goodness and truth,
forgiving and caring,
directing , correcting and
just
BELIEVE THOU NOT THAT I
AM IN THE FATHER AND
THE FATHER IN ME
That the FATHER is in Me is
proved by the fact that My
words do not originate with
Myself; but from the
FATHER, who abides in Me ,
the sameness of nature in
the SON and the FATHER;
perfect equality with the
FATHER, GOD’S presence
was proof that JESUS was
the embodiment of GOD,
which is mutual indwelling
presence of GOD in CHRIST,
each dwelling in the other,
JESUS came to earth to
reveal GOD, GOD’S
presence is not only with
Him; GOD’S presence is in
Him, He himself is GOD, He
is the same nature with My
FATHER that dwells in Him,
CHRIST Himself, His person,
His being, His nature, His
character, His love, His care,
His just dealings and all that
He revealed is exactly what
GOD is
HE DOES THE WORKS;9
JESUS words were proof
that it was the very word of
GOD, the teaching and
doctrine, when JESUS
speaks is the very word of
GOD that GOD wants to say
to man, when JESUS speaks
it is the FATHER that speaks
through Him, the works
providing that the FATHER
to be in Him, the miracles
which was said to be
performed by JESUS, is
account of the intimate
union between the FATHER
and SON
JOHN 1:4
4) In Him was life; and the
life was the light of men
IN HIM WAS LIFE AND
In Him was life and the
power to bestow life, and
the life was the light of men,
True, genuine life is
embodied in CHRIST, His life
was the light for everyone,
that is GOD’S truth, nature
and power are made
available through CHRIST,
He is the source of light, the
knowledge of the life of
CHRIST was to be light of
men and the beam that was
to give real life to man, both
abundant and eternal life,
infuse energy and
motivation into man so that
he might walk and live as he
should, CHRIST is the
purpose, meaning and
significance upon earth , He
is the quality of being, He is
the essence of being, power
of being, force of being, the
principle of being, CHRIST
shows man the truth of life,
that is the truth about GOD
, He is the essential of life,
the author of life to all that 10
live, all that men which is
true light- knowledge,
integrity, intelligence,

the Divine and eternal GOD

Humanity and deity were

limitations of human
existence
PHILIPPIANS 2 :5-11, Man
came to be SON of GOD,
because the SON of GOD
became man, CHRIST
became flesh, He became
incarnate , we mean that
one of a higher order than
man a divine did which
implies that He had pre
existence nature, all things
were made by CHRIST JOHN
1:3
JESUS CHRIST is GOD fully
GOD yet JESUS CHRIST is
Man fully man , what the
scripture means by the
flesh- is corruptible and
perishable, the flesh have
seed of corruption by sin it
ages, dies, deteriorates and
decays, it does not live
beyond a few years on this
earth, CHRIST the word
became flesh to correct and
counteract the corruption of
flesh, the flesh is
dishonorable, the flesh is
not what GOD created it to
be, it does not exist in the
image of GOD that GOD
intended, it does not hold
the glory, the honor, nor the
   
prestige it once did when
GOD created it, it is
disgraced and shamed, and
it is reproach by sin and lust,
it held the grip of sin and
fear, and subject to being
held in bondage, even the
bondage of death
JESUS CHRIST became flesh
to correct and counteract
the dishonor of the flesh,
the flesh is weak, feeble,
frail, impotent, fragile
because of lust and sin ,
CHRIST became flesh to
correct and counteract the
weakness, of the flesh, the
flesh of the earth is part of
the earth, it is made of
chemicals substance of the
earth, it is physical,
material, it is the earthly
house , which house the
human soul and Spirit, it is
neither Spirit nor spiritual:
therefore, it cannot live
beyond the strength of the
Chemicals and substances
that form the flesh, it
cannot live beyond its
natural life, He become
flesh in order to became a
life-giving Spirit, the savior
who could quicken and
make alive all those who
would trust in HIM
JESUS CHRIST dwelt visibly
among us He was full of
grace and truth, he was the
very embodiment of grace
and the embodiment of
truth,
GRACE- full of grace that
means he dwelt among
men, and appeared to have
the fulness but regarded
Him as incarnate full of 
grace- The Spirit and the
Gift of the Spirit without
measure, is a gift, a favor ,
acts of beneficence, of
justifying, pardoning,
adopting, sanctifying, and
persevering grace , He was
kind, merciful, gracious,
compassionate, comforts,
peace, and joy, doing good
to all, and seeking man’s
welfare by great sacrifice
and love so much so, that it
might be said to be
characteristic of Him, in
favor of mankind, GOD had
saved sinners those who
have acted against Him,
therefore grace become the
favor of GOD showered
upon men who did not
deserve His favor, grace
become the kindness and
love that dwells within the
nature of GOD, the
kindness, love that GOD
freely gives to His enemies,
by grace that we come to
eternal life EPHESIANS 2:5
FULL OF TRUTH
JESUS CHRIST declared the
truth, in Him was no
falsehood, He was not like
the false teachers and
preachers, who are wholly
impostors, He represent
things as they are and thus
became the truth He was to
reveal, as well as the way
and life

17)For the law was given by
Moses, but grace and truth
came by JESUS CHRIST
AND OF HIS FULLNESS we
believer have received
under the Gospel grace
instead of those granted
under the law, His fullness 
in JESUS CHRIST have we
all received, the fullness
here means that of the
incarnate word was full, of
grace and truth which dwelt
without measure in Him,
the unlimited and absolute
completeness and
abundance of Divine power
of mercy to understand the
plan of salvation , IN JESUS
dwelt all the wisdom,
righteousness,
sanctification, and
redemption all the
abundance in GOD, all that
CHRIST is the very fulness,
gentleness, self-control,
kindness, goodness
faithfulness, gentleness we
as believer are complete in
CHRIST
GRACE FOR GRACE that is
freely have we purchase it
nor deserve it ,but GOD has
conferred it on us freely
means that a constant
impartation of grace , grace
added to grace, and power
is given to believers who
response to the grace given
to them, one blessing after
another, grace is GOD’S
initiative, love,, mercy and
favor that make possible
our salvation in CHRIST,
Salvation does not come by
our effort to keep the law,
but by the Holy Spirit and
CHRIST’S grace coming into
our lives to regenerate our
Spirits and to re-create us in
CHRIST image
FOR THE LAW WAS GIVEN
By MOSES the law, moral
and ceremonial, came not
by Moses, but was given by 
Moses as GOD minster and
servant; that law that no
man can be justified, for
those under the old
covenant there was a
measure of grace as seen in
the faith of few
GENESIS 5:24 GENESIS 7:1
GENESIS 15:6, the grace and
truth does not come by the
law, it is opposed to
condemnation and wrath by
the law no man can keep
the law, the law only point
to man’s failure and
condemns him for breaking
the law, and the truth
oppose to the ceremonies
which is attended with
many burdensome rites
and ceremonies ,thereof,
the old system was the one
of law, shadows and
burdensome rites, in the
Gospel we discovered the
most important truth, but
by JESUS CHRIST
Now through JESUS CHRIST
was full of mercy to
mankind, grace and truth
are available to the fullest
constant impartation of
grace , such is the grace, the
underserved favor of GOD,
GOD’S grace come through
JESUS CHRIST, we would
not know the grace of GOD
unless JESUS CHRIST has
come to reveal it to us, the
glorious fact that we do
experience the fullness of
GOD and His grace is proof
of the incarnation, that GOD
did become flesh in the
person of JESUS CHRIST, all
that is from CHRIST; all the
favor of GOD for remission 
of Sin, and pardon of sin
came from CHRIST as the
fountain of grace and truth

FOR AS THE FATHER RAISE
UP THE DEAD
Just as the FATHER raises
the dead, GOD has power
to raise the dead, by his
power it has been done in
at least two instance by the
prophet ELIJAH, in the case
of the son of the widow of
Sarepta 1 KING 17:22 and by
the prophet ELISHA, in the
case of Shunamites
woman’s son, 2 KING 4:32-
35 , JESUS here expressly
affirms it, and says he has
the same power , quickened
them , that is give life , even
so , in the same manner, by
the same authority and
power, the power of raising
the dead must be one of
the highest attributes of the
divinity, as JESUS affirms
that He the FATHER, so it
follows that He must be
equal with GOD
THE SON QUICKENED
WHOM HE WILL
GOD gives life, and only
GOD can give life, GOD is
sovereign, acting fully as He
alone wills, He is not
constrained or restrained ,
has power and authority,
the SON JESUS CHRIST
quickened, gives life to both
in a Spiritual sense, being
the resurrection and the
life, or the author of
resurrection from a moral
death to a spiritual life,, this
may either refer to His
raising the dead from the 
graves, or to His giving
Spiritual life to those who
are dead in trespasses and
sins, in raising the dead He
did in the case of Lazarus
JOHN 11:43-44
and the widow’s son at Nain
LUKE 7:14-15 as He gives
them life and allows them
to live on, even so the SON
also gives life to whom He
wishes , the SON JESUS
CHRIST gives life to whom
He wills, Just as GOD does,
so CHRIST is equal with GOD
in giving life and raising the
dead, CHRIST gives life to a
person when that person
believes on him, and the life
which he gives is both
abundant and eternal

26) For as the FATHER hath

given to the SON to have life
in Himself
FOR AS THE FATHER HATH
LIFE IN HIMSELF
For just as the FATHER has
life in Himself and is self
existent, even so He has
giving to the son to have life
in Himself and be self
existent, CHRIST can give
life because Himself
possesses life, He not only
have part in giving it, He is
the source of life He declare
His authority and character
as the Messiah, JESUS
CHRIST’S own nature is a
source of eternal life; it is
inherent within Him, GOD
however, has given
believers the power to have
eternal life, only when we
fellowship with JESUS
CHRIST, that is CHRIST living
in us through a living faith
relationship
HE GIVEN TO THE SON TO
HAVE LIFE IN HIMSELF
This shows that the power
or authority here spoken of
was given or committed to
the LORD JESUS, to have life
in Himself, is the living GOD,
the fountain of life, and
author of life to all living
creatures, the son has life in
himself, essentially,
originally
GOD Has life within
Himself, GOD has given the
very same energy of life,
power of life, being of life,
possessor of life, source of
life, essence of life, the
sovereign of life, self
existence to the SON, JESUS
CHRIST to possesses the
very being of life, the power
and energy of self-existence
within Himself, so JESUS has
the power to give eternal
life to those who hear Him
and believe in GOD
JOHN 5:27
27)And hath given Him
authority to execute
judgment also, because He
is the SON of man
AND HATH GIVEN HIM
AUTHORITY TO EXECUTE
JUDGMENT
JESUS CHRIST was equal
with GOD was His proof
that he Has equal power to
execute judgement, having
lived just as all son of man
live, He walked through life
as a man, bearing all the
weight and pressure, trials
and temptations, sufferings
and death, joy, victories,
that men experience, He
knows every feature and
character of human life;
therefore, He is able to
execute righteous
judgment, for this reason
GOD, hath appointed Him
has made him to be judge of
all, all the physical power to 
raise the dead, and to
investigate the actions and
thoughts of the life; and all
the moral right or authority
to sit in judgment on all the
creatures of GOD
To do judgment, that is to
judge He has appointment
to do justice, to see that the
universe suffers no wrong,
either by the escape of the
escape of the guilty or by
the punishment of the
innocent
BECAUSE HE IS THE SON OF
MAN
Because He is the Son of
man means the same as
Messiah DANIEL 7:13-14
that GOD had made Him
judge because He is the
Messiah, He was in the form
of GOD, the SON emptied
Himself of all His glory and
became a Man, to show His
union with man and His
interest in man, therefore
the father endowed Him
with these powers: to have
life in Himself and to
execute judgment

of GOD, for the bread of
GOD is He who comes down
out of heaven, and gives life

me, JESUS is the way into

GOD’S acceptance, into
salvation,, into heaven, into
the kingdom of GOD, into
eternal life , which refers to
true doctrine and teacher of
the people to just claims to
confer upon the sheep of
GOD’S pasture safe and sure
access to GOD, He is the
door of the sheep, by which
they are let into the
presence of His FATHER,
and have communion with
Him,, and partake of all the
blessings of grace; it is
through Him that

pardoning, and adopting
grace, are conveyed unto
them ,and through Him they
have all the peace, joy and
comfort and privilege of
Divine life, and through Him
they heirship, and a right

9) I am the door; by Me if
any man enter in, he shall 
be saved, and shall go in
and out, and find pasture
I AM THE DOOR 
Those who enter through
JESUS will be saved, by
having abundant eternal
life, they will have all they
need to be delivered from
sin, guilt and condemnation,
JESUS is the only door of
salvation; none other exist ,
JESUS emphasis, I am the
door; through Me, and none
else, if a man enter he shall
be saved, and shall go in
and out find pasture,
deliverance from dangers,
protection, from the
ravenous wolves, and from
false shepherd, JESUS is the
only gate that leads to
salvation, to peace and
security, the gate that leads
to true pasture, the pasture
that has the living stream
flowing through it and the
pasture that has the living
nourishment in it, His
pasture can satisfy the soul
and retore the soul, His
pasture alone can give life
and give it forever, His

and out of that state, but
can as a child share, the
Divine repose of the home
and the high privilege of His
Sonship in the world, secure
of his home

11) I Am the good
shepherd; the good
shepherd giveth His life for
the sheep
12)But he that is a hireling,
and not the shepherd,
whose own the sheep are
not, seeth the wolf coming,
and leaveth the sheep
13)The hireling fleeth,
because he is a hireling, and
careeth not for the sheep
I AM THE GOOD SHEPHERD
JESUS declares Himself to be
the good Shepherd, the
faithful and true shepherd,
willing to do all that is
necessary to defend and 
save the flock, which
confers tender and devoted
care to His people, he says,
I am towards all who believe
in Me, as a good shepherd,
is towards all who believe to
ward His sheep , caring
watchful and loving, the
distinguish aspect of CHRIST
, is His willingness to die for
His sheep the believers, his
death on the cross save his
sheep the believers,
Be sure to note, that any
Minister who serves merely
to earn a living or gain
honor is the hireling that is ,
hire hand , true pastors care
for their sheep, while false
pastor think first of all of
themselves and their
position
JESUS is called the good
shepherd because He gave
and sacrificed His life for the
sheep for His followers ,
JESUS is called GOOD
Shepherd because He is not
‘Hire” or employed
shepherd, the hired
shepherd(pastor/ General
overseas he) was just a man
hired to look after the sheep
until the real shepherd
came, he was not the true,
permanent shepherd, he
was a false, unfaithful, and
irresponsible shepherd, his
interest we not a calling but
a job and profession,,
money and comfort,
acceptance and recognition,
position and prestige,
authority and esteem
The false, unfaithful, and
irresponsible shepherd has
little if any sense of 23
responsibility for the sheep
(believer, he seek to benefit
itself, not the sheep:
He is a shepherd for
what he can get out of
it, not to serve and care
for the sheep
His primary interest is
not the sheep
(believers) but job
security; wages and
benefits, position and
prestige, money and
comfort
He values himself more
than the sheep
He seeks his own things
more than the sheep
He seeks his own thing
and not the things of
others
ROMANS 15:1-2
1 CORINTHIANS 10:24
He has no interest in
seeking the lost sheep,
the unsaved, lest his life
be threatened
The irresponsible shepherd
runs away when he sees
danger(the wolf), he seek to
save himself and to protect
his own security and
position even if it means
forsaking the sheep and
leaving them exposed to
danger, the irresponsible
shepherd causes the sheep
to be caught in danger and
in error, some of the sheep
are ravaged and eaten by
the dangerous wolf, the
wolf is anything or power
that seeks to destroy the
sheep, such as worldliness,
false teaching, carnal man,
the irresponsible shepherd
lack genuine care for the 
sheep, He is not involved
and concerned with the fate
and eternal welfare of the
sheep
JOHN 10:28
28) And I give unto them
eternal life; and they shall
never perish, neither shall
any man pluck them out of
my hand
AND I GIVE UNTO THEM
ETERNAL LIFE AND THEY
SHALL NOT PERISH
The believers are given
eternal life, which includes
abundance of life, while on
earth, which begins the
moment the believer
become a follower of JESUS
CHRIST, do give unto them
eternal life; Spiritual life, or
a life of grace, which issues
in eternal life, He gives
them Himself, who is the
true GOD, whoever has Him
has life , He gives them
knowledge of Him , which is
eternal life, as soon as they
shall come to hear, and
believe in My voice, and
follow Me, they shall have a
sure right
They will never perish
means never be banished
from GOD’S love or
presence, nor will any
power or circumstances on
earth take them from His
hand, their is safety and
security for the weakest
believer who follow and
listen to CHRIST nothing can
destroyed them or to be
punished in Hell.
NEITHER SHALL ANY MAN
PLUCK THEM OUT OF MY
HAND
The sheep (believer) are
secured, no man, no one
can snatch them out of
CHRIST’S hand, the person
who is truly in the Shepherd 25
hand can not be lost
secured
To be in the hand of CHRIST,
is to be high in His esteem
and favor: the believer are a
crown of glory in the hands
of the LORD; and royal
crown in the hand of GOD;
they are signet in His hand
that can never be plucked
off, they are in the hand of
CHRIST

25) JESUS said unto her, I
am the resurrection, and
the life: he that believeth in
me, though he were dead
yet shall he live
26)And whosoever liveth
and believeth in Me shall
never die, believest thou
this?
JESUS SAID UNTO HER I AM
THE RESURRECTION AND
THE LIFE
He draws her from her
selfish grief to Himself,
JESUS said I am the
resurrection, the author and
cause of the resurrection of
the dead and life, the
source of life, natural,
Spiritual, and eternal of the
living, both in the present
world and the world to
come, signifying , that He
was able of Himself to raise
men from death to life
without asking from the
FATHER; and that He could
do it now, as well as general
resurrection, JESUS claim
the power and energy of
life, therefore if a dead
person wishes to live, only
JESUS can give Him life, and
if a living person does not
want to die, only JESUS can
keep him alive from dying
eternally, Martha believed
that in answer to His payer
GOD will give anything,
Martha believe that
resurrection will take place
at the last day,
But CHRIST have her to
know that by His power, He 26
could effect anything ,that
you are being put off to the
distant future, there is no
need for Him to pray as man
to GOD ,He CHRIST and
none else , He is the
Resurrection He is the
author or the cause of the
resurrection itself, without
asking from the FATHER and
that He could do it now, as
well as general resurrection;
at which time CHRIST will be
will be the efficient cause of
it, the resurrection depends
on Him, the spiritual
resurrection, from death of
sin to life of grace, He is
concerned both in the life
itself, and in the
resurrection of it, of the
dying and the life, of the
living, there is no need to
look forward to the last day.
The former deals with the
case of believers dying
before the death of CHRIST;
for instance Lazarus, for
there was none of his prey
which death was not
obliged to restore, in the
presence of CHRIST, the
daughter of Jairus, and the
young man at Nain, and
probably all who at that
time saw with faith JESUS
CHRIST, and died before His
death, were among those
who rose again, as descried
in MATTHEW 27:52-53
after the crucifixion the
grave were opened; and
many bodies of believers,
which slept, arose, and
came out of graves after His
resurrection, and went into
the Holy city, and appeared
   
unto many,, for the death of
CHRIST deprived death of its
power, for the person who
believes in JESUS, physical
death is not a tragic end, it
is instead the gateway to
abundant eternal life and
fellowship with GOD
HE THAT BELIEVE IN
THOUGH HE WERE DEAD
YET HE LIVE
And whosoever looked
upon Me and committed
himself unto Me, though He
doth die, yet he shall rise
again, and live eternally,
and this power being in Me,
I am not tied to the last day,
but have power when I
please to raise the dead,
faith does not save from
temporal death; but
although the believer as
others will die a temporal
death, yet he will hereafter
have life, even if he dies, he
shall hereafter live, shall be
restored to life in the
resurrection, he live in
heaven, in the spiritual
dimension of being, in the
very presence of GOD
Himself, the word shall live
refers to resurrection,
The believer if fully alive; he
lives in. heaven, in other
world, in the very presence
of GOD, the spiritual world
AND WHOSOEVER LIVES
AND BELIEVES IN ME SHALL
NEVER DIE
The words shall never die
means believers will never
cease to exist, they are
immortal and incorruptible ,
they will never test death,,
that is never experience 
death, before the believer
blink his eye, he has passed
from this world into the
next world, he is
transported and transferred
in to heaven, the believer
never loose a single
moment of consciousness,
one moment he is conscious
and living in the world and
the next moment he is living
in the next world, where he
will be made perfect;
transformed, made much
more conscious, and aware,
where He receive eternal
life , receiving eternal life is
conditional; a person must
believe, it is who believes
and whoever lives and
believes, that live and never
dies, It is JESUS who ask
Martha do you believe this?
if a person believe JESUS
he will never die, he will live
forever

19)Yet a little while, and
the world seeth me no
more; but ye see me;
because I live, ye shall live
also
BECAUSE I LIVE YOU SHALL
LIVE ALSO
After a little while, this was
the day before his death,
the world will no longer
But you see me, you will see
Me now, and shall see Me
after My resurrection, as
the disciples did , for then
He appeared alive and
conversed with them for
forty days; and when He
ascended into heaven, the
world see Me with fleshly
eyes no more until the day
of judgment, the people of
the world would not see
Him visibly or physically,
and they had not the eye of
faith to discern HIM, but
you the believers will 29
continue to see me by faith
even when the world
cannot see Me by the eye
of faith ,as still your gracious
Savior and friend.
Because I live, JESUS lives
as GOD, and as Mediator, as
GOD, He lives the same life
His FATHER does, partaking
in the same nature, and
possessing the same
perfections so He lived from
everlasting and will to
everlasting, as man, though
JESUS was about to die, to
be crucified , and laid in the
grave; yet He also about to
be raised from the dead, He
was to continue to live, and
though absent from them,
yet CHRIST would feel the
same interest in their
welfare as when he was
with them on earth, He had
a nature which could not
die, as Mediator also He
would be raised and
continue to live, JESUS have
both power and
predisposition to give
believers live also, to defend
them, and bring them with
Him, JESUS presence with
His followers began with His
resurrection and with the
coming of the Holy Spirit,
YOU WILL LIVE ALSO
The presence of JESUS is a
living, eternal presence, He
died, but He did not stay
dead, He arose and
conquered death, He arose
to live forever, that the live
of the believer depends on
that of CHRIST, they are
united; and if they were
separated, the believer 
   
could neither enjoy spiritual
life here nor eternal joy
after, the fact that JESUS
lives is a guarantee that all
who believe in Him shall He
saved if JESUS CHRIST is
living forever and He dwells
within the believer, then the
believer lives eternally,
CHRIST the eternal presence
lives within the believer;
therefore, the believer
becomes eternal, He never
dies, the believer is made
eternal by the eternal
presence of CHRIST within
Him, the presence of
CHRIST is a living union, a
mutual indwelling between
GOD, CHRIST and the
believer, when the Holy
Spirit came, believers were
placed in His Spirit and His
Spirit in them

2)As thou has given Him
power over all flesh, that He
should give eternal life to as
many as thou hast given
Him
3) And this is life eternal,
that they might know thee
the only true GOD, and
JESUS CHRIST whom thou
hast sent
AS THOU HAS GIVEN HIM
POWER OVER ALL FLESH
That he should give eternal
life, to as many as thou hast
given Him, to all on whom
the FATHER has purposed to
bestow the blessing of
redemption through His
SON , it is observed that
CHRIST makes important
distinction between all
flesh and those who were
given HIM, He has power
over all, He controls, directs,
restrains them, the wicked
under His universal
dominion as the weak, frail,
sinful, Jews and Gentile, and
every character, elect or
non-elect, He has also
power over angels: GOD
glorifies Him by giving Him
power, that He should give 
eternal life to as many as
thou hast given Him, eternal
life is a gift, and not owning
to the merits of men,
indeed there is no merit in
man’s work, no not in the
best of it, but through the
grace of GOD through
CHRIST
Eternal life is real life, it is
the very life of GOD Himself,
it has more to do with
quality and with what life
really is than with duration,
to live forever in the present
world is not necessarily a
good thing, the world and
man’s body is aging, dying,
and changing to perish, that
change life is found only in
eternal life,
AND THIS IS LIFE ETERNAL
THAT THEY MIGHT KNOW
THEE
Ho do we get eternal life?
JESUS CHRIST tells us clearly
here, by knowing GOD the
FATHER Himself through His
SON, JESUS CHRIST, eternal
life requires entering into a
personal relationship with
GOD in JESUS CHRIST, when
we admit our sin and turn
away from it, CHRIST’S love
lives in us by the Holy Spirit
It is a special spiritual
quality of life that believers
receives when we partake
of the essential life of GOD
through CHRIST; this allows
us to know GOD in an ever
growing knowledge and
fellowship with the FATHER
SON and Holy Spirit, eternal
life requires a living faith, is
not secured only through
merely by an act of
   
repentance and faith, but it
involves also a present living
union and fellowship with
CHRIST, there is no eternal
life apart from Him the only
being who can be said to be
eternal is GOD, therefore
supreme life is, is found only
in GOD, to possess eternal
life is to know GOD, once a
person knows GOD and
JESUS CHRIST whom He has
sent, that person has
eternal life, he shall live
forever, as such person has
the supreme quality of life
the very life of GOD Himself
