Eternal Life Quotes

And when my days run out, I will have lived just a blink of time and the rest will be eternal joy.

~ Abby Danielle Burlbaugh

As a Christian, our existence here on earth is a sliver of the eternal pie. Our focus should be on the whole pie, and not the sliver.

~ Danny L. Deaubé

I am a daughter, a son of God's, part of God's royal family. In the perspective of eternity, many things of this world are petty, beneath me: Vulgarity, stinginess, greed, grudges.

~ Ken Untener

If you think that there's anything that you need to do for salvation, then you've missed the point of the Gospel. Eternal life is a gift from God!

~ Ibrahim Emile

The Fathers intent desire is that none would 'perish'. The promise God has given us is one of 'liberation'- Freedom. Being set free from captivity and reconciled to your Father. Intimacy with Jesus garners son-ship with Abba. As Jesus demonstrated that Son-ship of Grace he said, 'I only say and do what I hear the Father saying and doing'. Proclaiming the Kingdom of God by Do'in the Stuff. The early church 'got' Jesus. John Wimber 're-got' Jesus and began proclaiming the Kingdom and demonstrating it as any loving son would of his Father. Now, we are no longer refuges but 'Bona Fide' citizens in good standing with our King and our new country. Where Love, Mercy, Grace; Peace 'rains' on us eternally here and now. 'The Already But Not Yet' (Ruis).~R. Alan Woods [2013]

... the first step to eternal live is you have to die.

~ Chuck Palahniuk

How one lives during limited time on earth's school is perhaps how one may dwell in the space of eternity.

~ T.f. Hodge

For there is no joy in continuity, in the perpetual. We desire it only because the present is empty. A person who is trying to eat money is always hungry. When someone says, Time to stop now! he is in a panic because he has had nothing to eat yet, and wants more and more time to go on eating money, ever hopeful of satisfaction around the corner. We do not really want continuity, but rather a present experience of total happiness. The thought of wanting such an experience to go on and on is a result of being self-conscious in the experience, and thus incompletely aware of it. So long as there is the feeling of an I having this experience, the moment is not all. Eternal life is realized when the last trace of difference between I and now has vanished - when there is just this now and nothing else.By contrast, hell or everlasting damnation is not the everlastingness of time going on forever, but of the unbroken circle, the continuity and frustration of going round and round in pursuit of something which can never be attained. Hell is the fatuity, the everlasting impossibility, of self-love, self-consciousness, and seld-possession. It is trying to see one´s own eyes, hear one´s own ears, and kiss one´s own lips.

~ Alan W. Watts

Jesus Christ is always there for you. He longs to aid you, He longs to be by your side, to help you through your struggles, to heal your aching heart and to mend your broken soul. He’s standing there with His arms outstretched, waiting for you to come to Him so that He can comfort you and guide you and help you through the changes you may be experiencing. Change may be scary, but it can be a great thing. Christ and His Atonement have helped the blind to see, the deaf to hear, the lame to walk, the dead to live again, and the sinner to repent. Because of His love for us, we have a way to be cleansed and to change our hearts and our souls. As we strive to align our goals and desires with the principles of the Gospel, we will grow closer to our Father in Heaven and will understand more and more how we can live with Him again.

~ Jayda Skidmore

The East is unfamiliar with those confessions, memoirs, and autobiographies so beloved in the West. There is a clear difference in tonality. One's gaze never lingers on the suffering humanity of Christ, but penetrates behind the kenotic veil. To the West's mysticism of the Cross and its veneration of the Sacred Heart corresponds the eastern mysticism of the sealed tomb, from which eternal life eternal wells up.

~ Paul Evdokimov

Death is not the end but the beginning of the eternal life.

~ Debasish Mridha

~ Debasish Mridha

~ Debasish Mridha

~ Debasish Mridha

When it is time for you to say goodbye to a beloved animal friend, remember that while the physical interaction ceases, the soul connection you share is eternal and remains with you both forever.

~ Amy Miller

Take away the pomp and circumstance, at the end of the day, only eternal things will be truly celebrated.

~ Robin Bertram

An eternal life is a life that one lives according to his or her decree to ultimately be a fine human being, agreeing with the concept of goodness, foreseeing the dangers ahead either by prophesies or by anticipation and to serve our Heavenly Father unselfishly.

~ Anthony Pan

If you want to get warm you must stand near the fire: if you want to be wet you must get into the water. If you want joy, power, peace, eternal life, you must get close to, or even into, the thing that has them.

~ C.s. Lewis

[Salvation] is a life-changing experience when it happens, and if our life isn’t changed by it, then it either didn’t happen at all or we are so caught up in this world, spending so much time, effort, and emotion on the red circle, that we are ignoring the permanent, eternal, gigantic, blue part of the map in which we will forever be.

~ Van Harden

Eternity is today

~ Bangambiki Habyarimana

I don't care about eternity. I was not their when it began, I will not be there when it ends

~ Bangambiki Habyarimana

If we take eternity to mean not infinite temporal duration, but timelessness, then eternal life belongs to those who live in the present.

~ Ludwig Wittgenstein

People change spouses more often than they clean out closets. And every time they say, 'This is the one. This is the person I'm going to spend eternity with.' Then forty or fifty years go by and you're just sick of each other, utterly sick, and it's on to the next 'true love.' My question is what good is eternity if you are eternally falling in and out of love?

~ Rick Yancey

All who live possess eternal life, and few would trade it for an immortal body, if they truly understood what it is to be alive.

~ Audrey Auden

...You won't get eternal life by just feeling the presence of God in flowers or music.

~ C.s. Lewis

The sleeping and the dead are but as pictures. Lady Macbeth

~ William Shakespeare
