The Gift of God

[Santoso]

For we heard:

 

“Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest THE GIFT OF GOD, and who it is that saith to thee, 

Give me to drink; 

thou wouldest have asked of him, 

and he would have given thee living water.”

‭‭John‬ ‭4‬:‭10‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

Did the woman of Samaria knew THE GIFT OF GOD, that Jesus answered and said to her ? 

 

This we heard:

 

“For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”

‭‭Romans‬ ‭6‬:‭23‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

We may consider: did the woman of Samaria knew ETERNAL LIFE THROUGH JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD ? 

 

Did the woman of Samaria knew and WHO IT IS  that saith to her, 

Give me to drink, that Jesus answered and said to her? Why Jesus said WHO IT IS that said to her ? Why He didn’t say who HE IS that said to her ? 

 

This we also heard: 

 

“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:”

‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭2‬:‭8‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

Did the woman of Samaria knew  THE GIFT OF GOD, the grace by which was she saved through faith; and that not of herself: it is the gift of God? 

 

That we heard and WHO IT IS that said to her, that we understand that Jesus,THE GRACE BY WHICH IS SHE SAVED THAT SAID TO HER.

 

And WHAT she would have asked of 

Him, that Jesus answered and said to her ? 

 

That we heard, that He would have given her LIVING WATER. 

 

WHAT LIVING WATER would  Jesus have given her ? 

 

That we heard, she wouldest have asked of Him, that we may understand she would have asked of Him, the gift of God, the eternal life through Him, the grace by which is she saved and He, Jesus, would have given her living water, that is, the testimony of Him.

 

For we have also heard our Lord Jesus said:

 

“He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.”

‭‭John‬ ‭3‬:‭36‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

For we heard the woman of Samaria that believed on THE TESTIMONY OF HIM. 

 

This we knew that the woman of Samaria believed, for we heard: 

 

“The woman then left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and saith to the men, Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?”

‭‭John‬ ‭4‬:‭28‬-‭29‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

Likewise, we also heard: 

 

“And many of the Samaritans of that city BELIEVED ON ( THE TESTIMONY OF ) him for the saying of the woman, which TESTIFIED, He told me all that ever I did.”

‭‭John‬ ‭4‬:‭39‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

“And many more believed because of his own word; and said unto the woman, Now we believe, not because of thy saying: for we have heard him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world.”

‭‭John‬ ‭4‬:‭41‬-‭42‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

Let us knew the gift of God, that is, let us knew the eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord, and Him who the grace by which are we saved that said to us, Give me a drink; that we would have asked of Him, the gift of God, the eternal life through Him, the grace by which are we saved and He would have given us the living water, that is, the testimony of the Son.

 

For we that believe on the testimony of the Son have everlasting life: and we that believed the Son shall perceive life, that we might know the only true God and Jesus Christ whom He has sent, for the pleasure of God abide on us, for we have the testimony of Him. 

 

To God the Father be all glory and thanksgiving through Christ.

Amen

[Santoso]

Let us pray:

 

Jesus our Lord,

Let me, my wife ( husband) and children knew the gift of God, that is, eternal life through You, for You are the grace by which are we saved, that said to us, Give me a drink.

 

Jesus our Lord,

we ask of You, the gift of God, the eternal life through You,  the grace by which are we saved, that said to us, Give me a drink.

 

Jesus, You give us living water, that You give us Your testimony, that we may please Him who sent You, for we believe Your testimony, that You are indeed Christ, the Savior of the world 

Amen

Peace to you in Christ, wonderful post, here are a few I will add to yours 

Jesus is called that eternal life which was with the Father

(For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, 
which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us )

And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, 
and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. 
This is the true God, and eternal life.

And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God,

and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.

Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: 

and they are they which testify of me.

That eternal life, which was with the Father

And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.

All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, 
save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him.

As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him.

God bless you

[Know Jah]

that statement confused me.."Jesus is the eternal life"? Also how can Jesus be with the father and be the father?
